Nad's Hair Removal Strips, 24 Strips (Pack of 2)

 (54 customer reviews)

I have tried a lot of different types of waxing products, and need it to multitask-- legs, underarms and bikini zone. I had also tried strips before, and they just didn't seem to work that well. I love Nad's strips, and now have them on a recurring order. They really snag all of the hair in the area, and are gentle enough to use in, ahem, sensitive areas. There is no comparison to heating up a tub of wax and the mess you make with a spatula, or having to wash out muslin strips from some kind of sugaring type of hair removal. No mess. The strips are very easy to cut to size, and the aftercare wipes really get any extra wax off.
Quick tip: I keep my hair dryer out when I am waxing, and use that to heat up the strips, rather than rubbing them between my hands forever. Also, on the second or third time that I use a strip, I use the blowdryer to warm it up and melt the wax onto the hairs to get a little more use out of the strip.

I am a male who happens to use these and I like them.

First off, I am no stranger to waxing. My sister is a professional beautician and she waxes my back for me (embarrassing, I know). One time she used these because it was all that was left (the professional wax was gone), and I wanted to go to the beach. It removed the hair from my back fairly well. The one con is that it took more than one time over the same area to remove the hair, which is expected from something not professional (and not boiling hot!)

Just yesterday I did some grooming by myself (on my upper arms), and hated them at first, until I figured out that you rip the strips off against the growth. Now, I really feel they were a good investment because they did a great job at a reasonable price. If these can work on coarser male hair, they surely can work for a woman who wants to be well groomed.

Pros:
-Easy enough for an amateur
-Inexpensive alternative to a salon...Read more

So far this is my top choice for a wax strip. I hated the nair wax strips-it did not remove any hair. Sally Hansen was good, but I once had a bad reaction to the strip. I like Veet a lot, but it leaves a lot of messy residue. Nad's strips remove a pretty good amount of hair when you follow the directions. It doesn't leave as much residue on the skin. I haven't had any bad reactions so far.
