You can feel confident that using Veet will help you prevent ingrown hairs. Some Veet creams give you up to 80% less ingrown hairs than shaving does.
We suggest that you exfoliate 24 hours before using Veet. It’s a good idea to do this regularly - most skin can be exfoliated once a week, but if your skin is sensitive, exfoliate every fifteen days.
And finally, always wear loose clothing following any application of Veet to help avoid ingrown hairs developing.
