00:00If you pluck your hair with tweezers, you could be damaging your skin.
00:05Plucking doesn't just remove the hair.
00:07It pulls out the entire root.
00:10This process can damage the hair follicle beneath the skin.
00:15When the follicle is disrupted, new hair may grow back at an angle instead of straight out.
00:22That misdirection can cause the hair to become trapped under the skin.
00:27This leads to irritation, inflammation, and what we know as ingrown hairs.
00:33Over time, repeated plucking can weaken the follicle even further.
00:39In some cases, the damage becomes permanent.
00:42And the follicle may stop producing hair entirely.
00:45Entirely.
00:46Entirely.
