question about shaving/ waxing legs/ hair removal cream?
by admin on Wednesday, August 11th, 2010 | 7 Comments
I have dark hair and my legs look bad even when I shave, I have heard that hair removal cream can cause rashes, and also smells really bad – does it just smell whilst you are using it or do you smell afterwards? I need advice on this plz! Also is waxing easy to do at home or would it be better to get a professional to do it….
advice plz. thanx




1.If it smells, get another one.
2.I would do it professionally, that way it won’t hurt as much. When you get it done professionally, they play soothing music to relax you.
The smell from hair removal creams are very strong when they are being used. Afterwards you usually don’t smell it still if you scrub your legs well with soap, however, sometimes the smell is still vaguely there, but is not noticable unless you have your nose to your leg. The cream can cause a rash if you are allergic to it (test a small spot first to find out) It will also itch a lot when you are waiting for it to work.
Waxing is fairly easy, but very time consuming if you are doing it yourself at home, it can also be very expensive somewhere else.
You may want to try a combination of hair removal cream (if you are not allergic) followed by a quick run of the shaver over your legs (to touch up any spots that you may have missed and to help soften the legs appearance)
Hope this helps!!
waxing is very easy! the first time u do it, it hurts like hell, but its gets alot better each time! try it!
hope this helps nd good luck xoxoxoxoxox
waxing is better. get it done professionally, Its just once in a couple of weeks (or even months depending how fast your hair grows), if you do it at home its cheaper, but if you’re a newbie you’ll definitely make the pain greater and you’ll make a mess (missed spots are annoying)
so yeah. professional waxing.
I definitely recommend waxing, and there are easy wax strips that you can use yourself. Sally Hansen makes great waxing strips for your body and you can buy them at any drugstore. Wax strips do the job quickly and you won’t have hair for around 2-3 weeks.
with waxing you will love the results, but it is very PAINFUL…..recently a friend gave me this thing called NO!NO!….it is great…no pain….it smells a bit….but no pain…i have been using it for few months(3) and my legs are hair free…its about $250…so i dont know if you can afford, but if you can …its worth every penny….good luck
It may smell during the proses but not after. It would probably be easier if you go to a professional and get it done. You should also consider laser hair removal it lasts forever and you wont have any dark spots on your legs. If you have sensitive skin and want to use a hair removal cream get one for sensitive skin but I have found that they don’t work as well as getting your legs waxed at a salon.
