00:01This is the weirdest thing I've ever done. It's just so funny.
00:06Hey guys, it's me Anne and welcome back to Beauty With Me.
00:09Today we are going to talk about vaginas.
00:12I don't know about you, but I am prone to ingrown hairs.
00:15Sorry if this is TMI.
00:17No joke, I once had an ingrown hair so gnarly I had to give it a name.
00:21Claudette.
00:22While I did learn a valuable lesson,
00:24don't wear tight stockings while walking around the cobblestone streets of Paris for hours on end,
00:28I did what many women do when faced this dilemma.
00:31I self-operated.
00:33And now I have a scar to prove it.
00:35Now before we dig any deeper, see what I did there?
00:38Let me give you a little bit of background knowledge on ingrown hairs, a primer if you will.
00:45Now most professionals would say to stay away from shaving altogether,
00:48but I know that not everyone has the time or money to get waxed or lasered.
00:52So here are six rules of shaving you should always abide by.
00:56One, trim your hairs.
00:58Two, make sure you always wash your bikini line and vulva with an antibacterial, fragrance-free soap.
01:05Three, use a shave oil or cream.
01:07No one wants a razor blade tugging on their skin.
01:09Four, shave in the direction of your hair growth.
01:12Five, when it comes to hair between the labia, proceed with caution.
01:15My advice, leave it to a professional.
01:18Six, finish off with a calming product like aloe vera gel to soothe and hydrate your skin.
01:22Between my experience with Claudette and a slew of friends asking me how to deal with ingrowns,
01:27it got me thinking, is there any recourse?
01:30So I did a little digging on the internet and I found a treatment called the Peach Smoothie at Haven
01:35Spa
01:35that's specifically designed to treat your vulva, AKA the area down there that grows hair.
01:42So, naturally, I jumped on the opportunity to try it out.
01:45That, my friends, is what you'll be witnessing today.
01:48You guys are getting to third base faster than my boyfriend did.
01:51Hi, I'm Camille.
01:52I'm a beauty blogger on YouTube.
01:54I have a channel called Offbeat Look where I do lots of hair tutorials, mostly hair dye tutorials,
01:59but we're here doing something very different today.
02:01What do you normally do in terms of maintenance in your pubic area?
02:07So, I shave normally because I have tried waxing and...
02:12Not fun?
02:14No, no, no.
02:14I've never done wax before.
02:16Yeah, no, you should try it once and then that'll probably be it.
02:19And then never again.
02:19Should we just get it over with?
02:21Yeah.
02:22Let's do it.
02:22Alright, let's go.
02:24First, my esthetician, Marta, took me to a private room where I undressed from the waist down.
02:29Time to get sexy.
02:31Disposable underwear off.
02:34This is going to be nice and warm.
02:37I like you.
02:38You're so funny.
02:39Next, she lathered me up with soap and did a thorough clean of my vulva.
02:42She was wearing gloves the whole time.
02:44Let me cleanse it nicely.
02:49You guys.
02:50Do you do this to yourself?
02:52No.
02:56Comfortable?
02:57Yeah.
02:58Yeah.
02:58You're not used to somebody touch you like this, huh?
03:01Yeah, no.
03:02Not used to it.
03:04Not with strangers.
03:07Treat me as a sister.
03:09I'm not too stranger.
03:10Next, she put on an exfoliating mask to prep my skin for extractions.
03:14My favorite part.
03:15It's like a massage.
03:18You're not getting excited, are you?
03:21Okay, this may slightly tingle.
03:23Where's the mask?
03:25The green tea lactic acid peel.
03:28That's the peel.
03:29How is that?
03:32A lot?
03:33Yeah.
03:33One to ten.
03:34Like a seven.
03:35Seven?
03:36Probably, yeah.
03:37Because I shaved earlier today.
03:39That's the green tea lactic acid.
03:43It's not.
03:44It doesn't hurt.
03:45It really doesn't hurt.
03:47Maybe I have a really sensitive vagina.
03:50Is that it?
03:51No.
03:52Pay to you.
03:53No.
03:56After removing all of the ingrown hairs that she could, Marta finished off with a soothing clay mask and a
04:01little bit of toner.
04:02I will leave it on for a few minutes and I rinse it off.
04:05Oh, it feels good.
04:06Soothing.
04:07So you may a little bit peel, but when you get this even a little bit like shadow, from like
04:14shaving and stuff, it will be much more brighter.
04:16Give a week.
04:18Okay, you're amazing today.
04:21So are you.
04:22I feel rejuvenated.
04:25Vaginally.
04:29I want to know what you thought about that.
04:31It was different than I expected.
04:34Did it hurt?
04:35The extraction?
04:36The extractions actually didn't hurt, but the acid peel is what, it stung a little bit.
04:42It did tingle for me, but the extractions were what it was the most like.
04:46I was really afraid that it was going to be like really awkward.
04:50So I wasn't actually as afraid about it being painful.
04:53I was just like, is it going to be really weird?
04:54Like, am I going to feel weird about it?
04:56But it was actually really fun.
04:58I don't know if that's like the right word to use, but it was really funny and she and Marta
05:02was really great and nice.
05:04And I felt like, I just had a good time getting a vajacial.
05:07Yeah, I mean I think that's the point of a spa.
05:10I know.
05:11Words I never thought I'd say.
05:13All in all, the peach smoothie was hands down the most practical treatment I've ever tried.
05:18For me, $55 is 100% worth it if it means leaving a spa completely free of ingrown hairs.
05:25For those of you who don't have access to a spa like that though, there are a few things that
05:29you can do at home.
05:30First off, try to avoid getting ingrown hairs in the first place by following the six rules of shaving.
05:38Secondly, try investing in an ingrown hair serum.
05:41Marta recommends Wish's ingrown hair serum, which I haven't personally tried, but she swears by it.
05:46My personal favorite is Furze Pute.
05:49It's not called the Pute Oil.
05:50My personal favorite is Furze Oil.
05:53It has tea tree oil in it, which is antibacterial,
05:55jojoba oil, which is hydrating,
05:57and clary sage seed oil, which reduces inflammation.
06:00It smells good too.
06:02And lastly, never, ever, ever pick.
06:05I know that I'm one to talk,
06:07but that will lead you down a really nasty path of scarring and just general discomfort.
06:12So just don't do it.
06:13You will regret it.
06:14So what do you guys think?
06:15Do you have any remedies for pesky ingrowns?
06:17And would you ever try a vagina facial?
06:19Let me know in the comments below and see you next time on Beauty With Me.
06:22You should try Let It Grow and I do you Brazilian.
06:25Ooh!
06:26That's when they wax your butthole.
06:29That's what I'm saying.
06:30I'm scared.
