The red marks will go away. Just make sure you washed off all the cream off and maybe apply a soothing aloe vera balm. eg. the type you'd use for shaving your face to smooth the area down.
The first time you've done it will always be red but as you do it more your skin will get used to it.

its just like red dots today where the hair was

Halcyon · 19-04-2009, 13:42

Yeah it should eventually go.
It's probably becuase your skin is quite sensitive and it is the first time you have used this on it.

We was all avoiding that one, and you come along and ask it anyway

Halcyon · 19-04-2009, 22:42

Nope, I personally don't shave my arms, though I have done my legs before as the girl I used to go out with liked it like that. eg. smooth. The things us guys do for women lol.

Thankgoodness I've moved on.

I once stuck a wax strip to hubby's leg. Well he was unlikely to agree to it, so I just stuck it on there quick - I thought he should feel what I have to go through (sometimes).

Yes...seeing that men's bodily hair tends to be thicker and stronger than women's then I think that's a bit disproportionate.

Is that your excuse for screaming and sobbing like a girl that time, it's not bad as excuses go tbh

No fair though, cos he still has a bit of a patch where it was!

I don't recall sobbing

In any case that was my "bikini line" which is more sensitive and anyway, it's not unheard of for things to be 'exaggerated' for radio...
