Nair, Have you used it? Options

[*Teenage Mutant Ninja Meg*]

since i'm going away for 3 weeks at a camp, i didn't want to be constantly shaving so i decided to buy nair.
my skin is really sensitive to a lot of stuff (even dove soap!) so i might react to using this.
i tried to buy the non-allergenic kind but it didn't come with the bladeless shaver.

has anyone used nair?
if so, does it work really well?
how long until you have to use it again?
did you react?
how long should i grow my hair out until it'll be effective enough to use?

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.
