Just that, really. I have hairy nipples, always have. WWYD to get rid of them? They're so ugly and embarassing Blush

Depends how hairy they are.. I pluck the odd one out Blush

wonderstuff · 27/04/2013 12:42

I do to, I figure no one really sees them, only DH and he's so pleased to get near he really doesn't notice.

I've git about 8-10 round each nipple.

Pluck, you say? Doesn't that hurt like hell?
So far I've just been shaving them Blush I feel like Captain Caveman's mum!

Pluck

Only hurts a bit Smile

If you pluck they may ingrow. Do not ask me how I know this Blush.

Pluck them, and only if they're really really noticeable.

Ingrown nipple hairs? Christ on a rubber bike, that sounds horrific
I can't bring myself to pluck - even after half a bottle of vodka Hmm
Has anyone tried/would anyone recommend laser?
They really are long, thick and black as night Sad

really long? How long do you mean? Have a hot bath and pluck one if you cant bear anymore then stop.

FunnysInLaJardin · 27/04/2013 22:06

I would pluck them and have. Although since the DC I seem to have very little body hair!

ilovepowerhoop · 27/04/2013 22:06

I trim mine as short as I can get them. Ingrown nipple hairs are not nice so I dont pluck them

chocolatespiders · 27/04/2013 22:09

Surely regular body scrub would keep ingrown hairs at bay.

ilovepowerhoop · 27/04/2013 22:16

I dont use body scrub and definitely not on my nipples!

OldLadyKnowsNothing · 27/04/2013 22:18

Pluck, pulling in the direction the hair's growing in. Doesn't really hurt, pain can be reduced by steeping in a hot bath for a while before plucking.

ilovepowerhoop · 27/04/2013 22:24

the plucking doesnt hurt but the hair growing under the skin afterwards does so i dont advise plucking

chocolatespiders · 27/04/2013 23:15

I have never had an ingrown hair but I am thinking my hairs have been on the breast not directly on the nipple. When I saw title hairy tits that what I thought and should have read properly. Ingrown hair on nipple would definitely be something to avoid.

I had my lasered off best thing I ever did and well worth the money

publicserviceannouncement · 28/04/2013 10:18

I pluck, I did get an ingrowing hair once, but just once, and that was years ago. It wasn't a big deal, I managed to get it to come out with tweezers (gently! Less painful than it sounds).

It doesn't hurt much to pluck IMO. I wouldn't have even considered taking a razor to my nipples, much more of a chance of injury IMO!

If you have the money and they're dark hairs, go for lazer I reckon.

WildlingPrincess · 30/04/2013 18:58

Pluck!

ATrust · 09/05/2013 11:04

Goodness, I didn't even know this was a thing.

Just burn them IMO.

No good to anyone.
