I have very sensitive skin and fast growing hair. I don't like shaving my legs cuz it takes so long. I used nair once and it was awful. I know I didn't leave it on too long and it didn't work that well. I had a painful rash on my legs the rest of the day. Any suggestions? Has anyone used the one, I think its veet, that has the bladeless razor with it? How does that work?

I have sensitive skin too. I'm allergic to Nair like you. I actually bought Veet, but then I read the label and it said that if you've ever had a reaction to Nair or the like, not to use it! It works on the same concept as Nair, dissolving the hair away.
The only thing that works for me is waxing. Sally Hanes and Nads are both good.

sensitive skin...tell me about it..
You get itchy with the type of clothes that donot suit you? Well I do..
I usually wax and cuz its long lasting..it depends on how the reaction is..
so use a good powder or calamine lotion on your skin which soothes any itchy pain. Also never use cream or blade for your hair because they only make your hair darker and thicker..
the weather these days is also kinda hot so the rash thing is happening to most of us..You can use ice on your skin and also try your best to remain calm and relaxed..the more attention you give to the redness,the worse it gets..and drink loads and loads of water.
a dermatologist can give you some good advice too..

i think all the removable lotion i bad for sensitive skins. but i think ill rather wax my legs then have a painfull rash for a week or so. if you dont like waxing, then you should take an asprin an hour before you wax. cause its better then having that rash right?

Veet might be good, never tried it. Nads is pretty good and won't irritate your skin.
