Nair Hair Remover Body Cream for Men, 8-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 3)

This must be one of those items that works great for some people and horribly for others. I purchased this a little bit hesitently after reading the negative reviews, but eventually decided it was worth a shot.

I wanted to use this to get rid of the hair on my back. So I smeared it all over with some contortions and set a timer for 15 minutes. The smell at first wasn't bad at all, but it quickly turned into a nasty, chemical smell that reminded me of the perms my mom and sister did once. It wans't horribly overpowering though, just irritating.

After the 15 minutes were up I used a washcloth and wiped all the hair off. It seemed to work best if you were slow and methodical in this step. I also found myself rinsing the washcloth often to get the hair off. Then I jumped in the shower and rinsed and washed with soap.

In the end I ended up with a perfectly smooth, hairless back and zero irritation. So far its been a week and there is no...Read more

Ok, so I got this product in an attempt to get rid of massive loads of hair painlessly. This is my opinion based on my experience with it:

First impression, yes it works (very well, actually), but you must use a good amount in each area you want to remove hair. I tried a thin layer first, and got hardly anything off. In the end, I used about a whole bottle for one complete hair removal.

Another thing I've noticed is that a lot of people complain about the smell. Honestly, it's not that bad. If you've ever been in a hair salon, you've already experienced it, and while it's strong at first, you get used to it in under a minute (don't recommend having your mouth open though...)

After you've placed the stuff on, you're going to be waiting a while to get it off, so bring something to entertain yourself. Staring at the ceiling for 8-15 minutes is not an enjoyable practice for me. At the same time, however, PLEASE bring a timer in with you. Set it for...Read more

When my 18 year old son came home from college for Spring Break, he had a mission. He wanted to transform from "Big Foot's" cousin to "a dolphin with eyebrows". In other words, he wanted to get rid of some of his body hair. Now, I didn't think it looked too bad but since he was determined to get it taken care of I figured I should at least guide the efforts. The first stop was the local salon for a chest wax. It worked great but according to him it was very painful and he broke out in a rash that night. Benadryl cream helped but it took a few days to go away. His dermatologist's office recommended a product like Nair so the next time I was at the Pharmacy I picked some up. He carefully read the instructions and tried some on a small area on his ankle. That seemed to work well so he did the rest of his legs today and it worked fine. I have no doubt that it may "burn" some people but for whatever reason my son's skin did not react negatively to it. So if you're thinking about...Read more
