Re: Thinking about shaving arms?
What a strange thread, of all the parts that I shave, my pits aren't one ( or 2 ) the only thing with shaving / waxing etc etc is that the hair will grow back, normally, over time, a lot thicker, and that can be a right pain in the **** .................... believe me

Re: Thinking about shaving arms?
I only shave my face, the nether regions get scissored, now & then, ears & nose kept clear with a buzzy thing, but not arms, still 'natural'

Re: Thinking about shaving arms?
Yes. And it worked.
Do not put it anywhere near your face or your arms. These areas are more sensitive. If you are going to do your under arms use a razor otherwise I think it will probably sting.
The Veet cream / gel you apply for 4 minutes. Make sure you don't have any cuts or open wounds.
After 4 minutes wash it off.

The gel/cream comes with an applicator. Waxing is about 6 weeks between treatments but that is because the hair needs to be long enough to remove with wax between tortures. The depilatory stuff can be used as and when required.

Re: Thinking about shaving arms?
What a about a nice trim?
Hair on men is mascaline, unless its in horrible areas, then I would say get the wax out, and prepare to scream!

Re: Thinking about shaving arms?
I believe Russ can give advise on waxing.

Re: Thinking about shaving arms?
If you do wax, exfoliating the area daily between waxes should help to minimise ingrowing hairs.

It is fine to use on your hands. Just make sure you read the label and follow the instructions.
It is worth doing a small area first just to make sure you don't have any reactions to it.
It is the quickest way of getting rid of hair that's for sure.
