removing small white bump spots

I find that after waxing, I see these white spots appearing. I'm thinking that I didn't do a good job using the claybar so I feel these small white bumps appearing. What's a good way to remove them?

wash and claybar again?

First, be sure it isn't residue from your wax that isn't removing properly. Use a fresh MF towel and QD the area.

If you feel a bump then I would probably just "spot" claybar them using QD as a lube. See if that fixes it. It takes 10 seconds. 3-4 rubs and BAM, it should be fixed. Than just spot wax over that area again.

If you are getting small white bumps maybe you should see a doctor. Sorry, I couldn't let that one pass by without saying something.

Stop doing tequila shooters and staring directly into the halogen lights...
(and try BradB's spot-claybar idea)

You may want to try the Mr Clean magic eraser as well, it will actually work really well with wax / synth residue.
