I have thick, dark hairs that have started to grow under my belly button. What is my best option for removal?

Shaving it doesn't help much as you can still see that dark spot of hair. I have tweezed, which has removed the full hair and root. But then I have ingrowns that come in. Then I have to use tweezers to dig to get the ingrowns which results in redness and bleeding and it looks just terrible. I havent tried any hair removal creams, or waxing. Before I go there, what are some suggestions.
