File this under another hair removal lesson learned. Ladies...let this serve as a public service announcement/warning regarding the use of Nair.

In my on-going quest for long term hair removal and smooth skin, I finally decided to try Nair instead of my usual shaving. I purchased said product and on Wednesday decided to try it out.
I prepared myself for the hair removal ritual and shower...assembled the necessary equipment.

towel
washcloth
timer
clean clothes
soap
shampoo
cream rinse
hair removal product named above

I am all set to begin. I carefully read the directions on said product and began the application process. I apply the product under my arms, no problems there. I then move to my legs, easy, no problems so far. I move higher up to the bikini area, then the nether region, carefully avoiding the more sensitive areas...so far so good. I move to the sink, wash my hands, dry them and set the timer. As I wait, something begins happening. I feel a tingling sensation in a very sensitive area, wait a minute, I didn't apply any product there. I think that this is strange, but as there is no pain, so I check the timer, 2 minutes left. I wait some more. The tingling is becoming a burning sensation, fuck the timer, I'm getting in the shower and removing this shit NOW! I turn on the water, Holy FUCK! this shit BURNS!!!!!! Get it off now! I jump into the shower, nearly slipping and killing myself in the process, grab the wash cloth and begin to wipe the affected area. I swear it seem to be taking forever to remove this crap. Finally, I get the stuff off.

It would seem that when using the product in it's lotion form, it has a tendency to spread (DO NOT use it in this form in the bikini area). Ladies, this shit will burn your soft sensitive tissue. It burned liked hell to pee for the next 24 hours.

I have since discovered that it comes in a solid roll on, much like deodorant, I recommend that you use it in this form for the bikini area.

On a positive note, it did remove the hair.
