    when you shave are you going against the hairs natural growth direction or with it??

    try going with the grain first then lather back up and go against it for a really close and hopefully not as irritating shave....also make sure the razor is brand new...the thick hairs on ur chest and arm will dull a blade quick.

    Try using a hair removal cream. I use Veet and it works great. I used to shave, but never again. Just be careful and follow the directions because it can burn the skin if left on too long

    NAIR has to be the worst thing out there. I used it once and that was the last time ever!! Burned the crap out of my skin..

    yeah if your gunna use NAIR you cant have sensitive skin, and you have to becareful not to leave it on too long....its not too good for the more sensitive areas of your body either...also a bitch to clean up overall it pretty much sucks

    NAD'S is a sticky goo you rub on your hair then you rub a cloth over it and snatch it off. You can buy it at walgreens or bed bath and behond.
