shasha answered Thursday April 19 2007, 5:42 pm: my friend uses veet and she swears by it... and she has really really soft legs... so it probably works really really well ^_^. i use nair, it works really well for me, it smells pretty bad though... but otherwise i think it's great [ shasha's advice column | Ask shasha A Question ]

i feel like veet takes a lot longer than nair. however people would beg to differ with me because nair may give you little cuts if you leave it on TOO long.
yes. they do work. you just have to be patient (not too patient though!) and let it work. i usually keep it on my arms for ten minutes, until i feel the FIRST sign of a tingling, or itching sensation. at that time, the hairs are loosened from your skin - you just have to rub a little hard in the shower to get them all off. if you wait TOO long, then it burns your skin, leaving little cuts all over your arms.
just follow the directions on the bottle - leave it in for less time than you think you need it. better having a little hair on your arm than burning your skin. [ orphans's advice column | Ask orphans A Question ]
