Rarely do fine facial hairs become ingrown. This is a problem more with bikini-line hairs, and sometimes the coarser hairs of the legs.

Hair does not grow back coarser, either from waxing or from shaving. Coarseness is determined by hormones, not depilation. It will grow back in its natural color. If hair has been bleached, by products or by sun, then it will of course grow back in its darker, natural color. But it cannot grow back any darker than that.

As for waxing causing changes in skin or hair texture: both are more likely to be finer and softer as a result of waxing.

You only need to let the hair grow back about 1/4"-3/8" before rewaxing, so that the wax will "grab" the hair.
