Whan the hair follicle gets blocked, the hair can curl and make a coil. If the hair cannot grow any further because of the blockage, its called a blackhead. When you shave with a multiple edged razor, the hair can be pulled out a little and when cut, go back below the skin. When this hair continues to grow, it can curl and twist and become an ingrown hair as well.
