If your hair is thick waxing is your best option...I've tried Veet doesn't work that well...and it burned sometimes when I used it. Shaving you always have to be careful. Waxing has been the best option as everything gets removed in a few minutes, you don't have to shave for a few weeks and all you do is sit there and wait until they are done....

What, male back hair doesn't count? :)

Veet works quickly and well, although you have to be careful not to leave it on too long - it can quickly irritate the skin. Five minutes is the recommended time, 10 is the max.

You really have to try it on a test spot first to make sure you won't be especially sensitive.

One problem is that you have to make sure you get everything the first time. Probably, if you missed a few spots, you could follow up with a razor; reapplying Veet to missed spots tends to irritate.

Now if only I could find something practical for my face, so I didn't have to shave every day...

Veet for the legs..shaving the arm pits and waxing eyebrows and bikini area(it stings for a minute but after its done several times you can hardly feel it that much. The effects of waxing look way better than shaving and lasts longer too...and for some women they need to get rid of the hair over the lip area if they have it?(moustache)..waxing will work best for that. it
Its better to pay a few dollars and be sleek and soft then to be nubby and hairy..yuck!

I often shave but that doesn't help cause it grows back everyday. I use to nair but it burned a couple of times. And don't even ask me about waxing, I commend women that can take that pain. I recently went back to nair when I realized they improved it. I used it this time and it didn't even burn. But the baby lotion they put inside the cream is so much better. Doesn't smell as bad as the old version and it leaves your skin so soft. I'm a fan again...

I prefer waxing. It's not that painful (after the first time), but it's kind of expensive at the salon -- $60-$75. You can do it at home, but it takes a long time.

The results are the best though, no regrowth for weeks, and when it does re-grow, it's not all stubbly and itchy like shaving. Just soft, fine little hairs.

I rather shave my legs. Then wax them, some removal don't work either. I try Nair one time. Didn't do nothing for me.

Nair will irritate your skin. I prefer shaving and waxing. Short term pain, long term benefits.

Hair elimination cream can go away undesirable reactions, doesnt very last THAT a lot longer than shaving it frequently smells undesirable and it ought to correctly be severe priced. Shaving could also reason reactions and make hair boost lower back speedier in case you do it frequently. Its time eating and a difficulty waxing is severe priced and should be painful yet truly has extra acceptable outcomes than shaving or elimination cream the merely excellent theory is laser hair elimination. certain that is extremely severe priced in the start yet after countless remedies (that are blanketed in the unique cost) there is now not any opt to shave. so that you receives that money lower back in the money you save on razor blades and shaving cream.

I like shaving but Nair is good for the summer. It smells horrible but is good for smooth skin for beach wear. Waxing is best for your eyebrows. Hurts like $%#! on your bikini area.

I like waxing better. Nair gives me a rash because its all chemical. Waxing can cost alot of money.
