You post in sporners corner and you get no end of volunteers. 😆. Can you not see the armpit ones (which could be ingrown hairs) in the mirror and squeeze with.opposite hand?

I clean my back with a natural sponge or one of those Japanese exfoliating towels.

I'm wondering how long people look at their armpits for. I never look at my armpits.

You can get blackhead removers which are a thin metal stick with a small ring on the end, you press the ring over the blackhead and the pressure makes it pop out. It’s not hard to do this in the mirror but I’ve no idea about backs - I know some places offer ‘back facials’, would that be an option?

@Watercooler I was looking to see if I need an underarm wax and and saw them . They are not easy to get with hand 😂

I never knew there was such a thing as a back facial !
