Damnit. I meant thicker, not faster. But are you sure? I've read in most cases that that's a myth, and 'tis completely untrue.

Personality, Nair to me sucks. It never works and it always leaves red marks on my skin.

omg.. i have a very sensitive nose when it comes to smells
and i can not stand the smell of nair
it smells like rotten eggs
and i havent eaten an egg sense i tried useing that stuff
even the kind with like sents in it smell bad
my cousin had the cucumber smelling kind
and i couldnt even smell it without throwing up
but they think it smells like lotion
so its prolly just me

NAhh i use veet.

There is a story of my friends mom's friend that when they were in highschool they played a prank on a girl and put hair in her hair product and then the girl was bald. =O

I can't stand Nair. For one, it smells awful. Two, it leaves my skin irritated and red.

Haha funny story though...my friend used Nair on her eyebrows (the area above and below them), and it didn't work - it just left her face red and she said it looked like she burned her eyebrows. It wasn't until after that she saw the big "DO NOT USE ON FACE" warning on the bottle .

Yikes! That must have been horrific for the poor girl.
Wow. The face is too sensitive for such products.

I don't use wax to remove hair, but I think I'd use Veet. I'd have to try out the razorless shaving idea as well as the wax you spread on and remove/throw away after it dries. Veet is awesome.

From what I'm reading, when you remove hair from your body, like from your legs, it looks thicker when it comes back, right?

That's almost true. When the hair comes back, the part that comes just above the surface of your skin, the first part that you see and feel is the thickest part of the entire hair. Technically, your hair has not grown thicker, it's just your only seeing the fattest part. If you grew it out all the way, it would be exactly the same thickness as it was before you took your hair off. But I don't know why you would want to do that since this whole thread is about getting rid of hair.

I just wanted to clear that up because one of my friends believed that shaving off hair makes it come back in thicker, so she said she was going to shave her head.

I think the reason why many people say it looks thicker is because the tip of the hair is thick. Naturally, the tip of your hair is thin and soft. After shaving, the hair doesn't have the soft end. For waxing though, I think it grows out to be softer/thinner.

And for that last bit. Shaving your head will most likely give you straighter/softer hair (or so I've heard).

never.

just shave
