Smooth Skin Starts Here

Ingrown Bootcamp

What Is the Ingrown Bootcamp?

Our Ingrown Bootcamp is a dedicated treatment program designed for women dealing with chronic ingrown hairs—especially in the bikini and vulva area. Whether you shave, wax, or just have sensitive skin that loves to rebel, this program is your step-by-step path to smoother skin and less irritation.

This isn’t just a one-time treatment—it’s a commitment to resetting the skin’s behavior and supporting the follicle from the inside and out. We recommend clients come in every 2–3 weeks for best results.

*And no, you don’t have to be a Brazilian wax client to participate.

Vulvacials, Not Vagacials

At V’s Skin Studio, we call this treatment a Vulvacial, because we like to keep things cute and correct.
(The vagina is internal—the vulva is what we’re working with here!)

Each session includes:

  • A professional chemical exfoliation to gently slough dormant skin

  • Manual extractions to release trapped hairs

  • A soothing mask to calm and restore

  • High frequency to combat inflammation and bacteria (for inflamed ingrowns)

Hair grows up and out through the follicle, but when that process gets blocked or disrupted, it can turn into an ingrown. This means the hair curls back into the skin or gets trapped underneath a layer of dead skin cells. And just like acne, there’s a little science behind why that happens:

What Causes Ingrown Hairs, Anyway?

Sticky skin cells: Dormant skin that clumps together and clogs the follicle.
Trapped hairs: Hair can’t break through the surface and gets redirected inward.
Inflammation: The skin sees the hair as an invader and freaks out—cue redness, swelling, or even pus.

Ingrowns vs. Acne Lesions

They may look similar, but they’re not the same:

Ingrown Hair

Causes

Hair trapped under the skin / within follicle

Contents

Usually a curled hair

Acne Lesion

Causes

Blocked follicle with oil, bacteria, and dead skin

Contents

Sebum, dead skin, C. acnes bacteria

What to Expect

This bootcamp is a team effort: we’ll handle the treatments, and you’ll handle the home routine. We’ll provide:

  • Custom homecare recommendations to keep the follicle healthy between visits

  • Tips for lifestyle changes (yes, your leggings might be part of the problem…)

  • Product guidance to support cell turnover, reduce inflammation, and prevent hair from getting trapped

Just like acne, this isn’t an overnight fix. But if you're consistent, you'll see real change in your skin—and real freedom from those pesky bumps.

Ready to Say Goodbye to Ingrowns?

Have questions?

  • Nope! We welcome shavers, trimmers, au-naturals, and everything in between. If you’ve got ingrowns, you’ve got a spot in bootcamp—regardless of your hair removal routine (or lack thereof).

  • Think of it as a facial… but for your vulva. We exfoliate, extract, calm, and treat that skin with the same love and attention we give your face. And yes, it’s totally normal. And no, we won’t judge your razor bumps.

  • We recommend every 2–3 weeks to keep progress on track and help those stubborn hairs release and stay gone. You can space it out more once things calm down, but in the beginning? Consistency is queen.

  • Yes, you can. Just wear a fresh tampon, cup, or disc and we’re good to go.

  • We see skin. That’s it. This is a professional service and we promise—what you’re worried about, we’re not even clocking. We’re more focused on your follicles than your flower petals, trust us.

  • Nope! This isn’t a wax—it’s a treatment. Think light tingles from exfoliants and maybe a pinch during extractions, but most clients find it way more relaxing than they expected. The high frequency even has a bit of a buzz to it… kinda like a little magic wand for your bikini line ✨

  • We'll set you up with the goods: exfoliation schedules, product recommendations, lifestyle tweaks (like maybe not living in your tightest leggings 24/7), and what to avoid so your skin can heal. You’re not in this alone!
