Razor bumps, or pseudofolliculitis barbae

In medical lingo occur when curly hairs grow back into the skin — hence: ingrown — causing irritation, inflammation, itchiness, and an unsightly cluster of bumps.

Plot twist: the madness doesn't stop at the neck area and can happen anywhere you shave, wax or pluck. Ask any guy looking to do a bit of manscaping or woman gearing up for bikini season and they'll tell you – ingrown hairs are equal opportunity annoyers. Suddenly, everyday social situations like job interviews, presentations, beach outings — intimacy — become way more complicated than they should be.

Short of letting your hair grow wild, you may find some, if any, relief through laser hair removal

But laser treatments are far from a magic bullet. For starters, they aren’t permanent, and aren’t designed to remove ingrown hair underneath the skin. And laser treatments are even less effective on African Americans, who tend to have curly hair and are among the hardest hit by razor bumps.

But we’ve got a solution:
Turtlenecks!

(Kidding)

…Electrolysis!

Electrolysis uses the latest tech to send delicate heat to the root of those unwanted hair follicles.

In many cases, insurance is required to cover these services.

And once you take down the hair follicles, the ingrown hairs and razor bumps go down too.

Electrolysis is the ONLY FDA-approved method to permanently remove the hair causing these razor bumps. It also works on all skin and hair colors and is effective at lowering the risk of infections and alleviating that constant itchiness and discomfort.

Don’t let razor bumps steal the spotlight.

Electrolysis uses a refined, bendy probe to deliver heat directly to and destroy hair roots.

It doesn’t rely on hair or skin color, as opposed to other hair removal methods. This is why it’s the only method that can even treat white, gray, red, and fuzz hair and any skin color.

It’s therefore the only FDA-approved method to claim permanent removal (others can only offer permanent reduction).

Client Testimonials

“Our go-to for
pampering sessions”

“Everyone here is helpful, kind, and mindful of what the process is like for the client”

I am currently lying on the table at Nios getting electrolysis on the stomach, and I must say I feel so safe with these Electrologists. They always ask, “are you ok? How are you feeling?” In addition, their clientele includes a lot of trans folks and I myself am trans- I feel very affirmed and respected for who I am. I’m currently seeing Jennifer and Tara on a standing basis, and they are both fantastic! I highly recommend Nios!

“I grew up in Japan, which, when you're not asian, can make you very jealous of the girls who shave once a month.”

Imagine my joy at discovering that electrolysis can put me in the camp of girls that never need to shave. I found the staff at Nios informative and professional; I learned that electrolysis is the only form of permanent hair removal (according to the FDA), and that my current form of hair removal, epilating, which can also be painful, often leads to ingrown hairs, and that electrolysis is a great way to fix this. I went in for a consultation, had a patch test done, and am definitely considering electrolysis as a solution to hair removal. Nios is a great choice as the electrolysician was very experienced, and worked quickly, minimizing the pain and cost.

“Love this team so much!”

The service & attention to detail alone brightens my day every session and almost makes me forget about the pain/discomfort associated with the Electrolysis!
