text: suggestions for neck acne/ ingrown hairs? my boyfriend occasionally suffers from either acne and ingrown hairs on the back of his neck. it can get so severe at times that they have left little scars all over. i know he is extremly embarrassed about it and i was wondering if there was anything we could buy or do to help minimize his breakouts and the effects. try rubbing astringent on his neck. once in the morning and before he goes to bed.  it'll clean the sweat from his neck from his daily activities and during sleep.  suave astringent is what i use, but most of them are pretty much the same. then use a 100% pure cocoa butter stick to clear up the marks. its inexpensive and it works!
