    Hair removal cream

    What is everyone's opinion on hair removal cream?

    I'm planning to remove all my hair in a month or so however the problem I'm facing is that my skin reacts quite badly to shaving. I usually break out with red spots and those will last for at least a week. Is hair removal cream a good option or will I have to wax?

    Thanks guys

    I've used hair removal cream a few times. I get a little rashy when I wet shave. However I have only used the removal cream on genital areas and chest. Besides a slight tingling on the sensitive skin. I had no side effects, no pain, no rashing.

    The hair hasn't regrown and its been 3 weeks nearly.

    Nair for Men is what I use, but am only doing my back. I just Bic my chest and "privates'....carefully of course. Too scared to try Nair on the really sensitive areas, if you get my drift. Damn Nair stinks though...

    I use Nair everywhere except my head and face. I built up a tolerance to it. The first few times I got a hell of a rash.

    Waxing was terrible and shaving sucks. Cream is the best option.

    Look for an aerosol spray hair removal and pay attention to the time frame on the directions and u should have no prob with irratation.

    I tried nair for men shower cream. Followed instructions and it pulled tiny chunks of my skin off. Only on my chest for some reason. I might have scraped it off too hard. worked like a charm on my arms.

    is nair for men really different from regular nair?? i remember the very first time i used nair, i slathered my balls with it, and i mean ALL over......taking if off was a huge surprise, it felt like wiping my sack with sand paper. i guess it scared me off even for normal use.

    Be careful with how long u leave nair on though. I left it on longer then I was sposed to by just a few minutes and I received a nice chemical burn that burnt my skin off!!!! When I used the rag to wipe off the cream the skin came with it. I still have scars from it

    Ive used nair for men and let my wife wax my chest once (I acted like the 40 year old virgin) and no matter what I break out big time. I just use my clippers with the smallest guard. Momma bear seems to like it. I also have used some stuff made specifically for black men for their head and face. No luck with that either. Even used that on my head but my hair still grew back in 3-4 days. Oh yea I have very thick hair so you may be ok.

    I use Veet on my arms and legs and it works great. Have used on chest but burns nipples so you have to be careful. Says not to use on genital areas, so I have not tried any other locations. Like mentioned, the first time I left on a bit too long and it was like a chemical burn.

    Had to vent this somewhere, so here is as good of a place as any.

    One thing that annoys me about using test is I always get new hair growth, random hairs popping up on my back and more hairs on chest coming through, I hate body hair and always shave it with clippers full body, but when on cycle I gain more plus it grows twice as quick everywhere face chest and all!!! Wish I could get hair permanently removed, it sucks!!, and I can't clean shave because I could damn in growns nothing worse than in growns ruining the look of your chest!!!

    I have tried several different types of nair and I prefer the ones made for sensitive skin.

    UPDATE:

    I recently tried NEET. And i have to say, im completely sold! I recommend it over Nair for several of reasons;


    1. NEET is cheaper per ML. The bottle is use is 400ML and is 4 dollars cheaper than the Nair that is 350ML.

    2. Hair is removed in less time. (3mins instead of 6) Im not in that much of a hurry, but sometimes its a pain in the ass standing there waiting for it to work.

    3. NEET smells nicer. Nair smells like a hospital.

    4. NEET seems to last longer by at least a day.


    So there you have it. NEET all the way!

    The cream made for Black Men is found at every drug store in the Black hair products aisle. I'm someone that gets rashes easily and has Italian blood in me so I'm pretty hairy. I actually use the cream on my privates and have never had a problem. It DOES take one dose first then two days later another dose but it lasts about three weeks for me. I've never been scarred or burned by it. And a few of my friends from the gym told me about it so that's why I tried it. So, it works for some people.
