what method of hair removal do you believe is the best/most effective/best result etc. i'm fed up of shaving! my hair grows so quick too. i've just ordered an epilator and i'm excited to use it and see the results :)

    I've always stuck to shaving, but I don't come from a very hairy family. I can go a week without shaving and no one will notice lol

    Edit: Come to think of it, I tried Nair once, but wasn't a fan...

    Umm, those draw blood... If you have a lot of time, try the nono. It works, just takes like 3 hours to do my lower legs, but lasts a few weeks. I went back to mostly shaving. Lasers are not worth the money or pain to me.

    I have an epilator and it is great for under arms - BUT it hurts like hell if you have shaved previously. I do use it on my legs but it takes ages and you can miss hairs. When I am going on holiday I have my legs waxed - but this is now less painful since using the epilator.

    Good luck.

    I found the epilator way to painful and it caused lots of ingrown hairs.....I stick with shaving. The only hair removal cream I like is Avon's Skin So Soft one as it doesn't smell so bad I want to vomit. I find wax also causes the ingrowing hair problem too...but it depends on your hairiness etc I guess!

    I have very sensitive skin but i found an amazing wax

    Being arab means i need to f'n wax LOL shaving lasts like a day and it grows back 600x thicker, ew.

    So i wax all of me! It may hurt at first but u get used to it. It dosent hurt me anywhere now, :bigsmile:

    Hope i helped in any way......?

    *Edit : if you can afford laser, you should go for a "test" spot, where they do a small area of your body to how you the results and see how you react to it. I got my under arms done, LOVE IT!*
