Red, painful, unsightly bumps – for some clients, hair removal and folliculitis are synonymous.

Folliculitis is a very common skin condition that can develop anywhere that there are hair follicles present on the body. The single most common form of folliculitis is acne. Common sites for folliculitis to appear are the face, head, and neck, however, it can also appear on the back, buttocks, groin, and thighs. Folliculitis often manifests as little red bumps that can look like tiny comedones. These appear like a skin rash, but it is actually an inflamed hair follicle with some type of bacterial or fungal infection present. Blisters that are filled with pus may also be apparent. There are even instances where the presenting blisters will open and a crust will form.
