Hair Removal Warning

[quote author=Jim22cm link=board=health;num=1041749154;start=0#2 date=01/05/03 at 05:56:03]I've been using Veet or Streps for a while (two of the bigger brands in Holland) and I didn't have a problem with it. The directions also tell you to test it on a small piece of skin !! and wait at least until a day after it to see if your skin becomes irritated ...

I used the inside of my arm to test it, that too is a sensitive piece of skin !! If you don't have any irritations, you can try it on your cock/scrotum.
Do'nt leave it on too long ... try 5 minutes first, 10 minutes the next week ... [/quote]I wouldn't go so far as 5 or 10 minutes with anything :o. Veet's directions say to go only as far as three minutes, then clean yourself off with warm soapy water 8)

aussiechick63: Hi massive. I'm not sure which veet you are using, but the hair removal cream does say you can leave it on for up to ten minutes before removing.
I always leave mine on for about 8 or 9 minutes.

robbnks: I have used it without problems. It all depends on your skin's sensitivity to the product. Try a small area first before lathering up. Good luck.

Well, I'm currently trying the lotion they have, and you're right, Aussie, it does say the maximum is ten minutes, so next time I will do that, but like always, I will keep some warm water handy to rinse it off :)

Hey, Aussie, I just got done trying the veet on my groin, and it came out nice and slick. Now, the only question now is-dare I go further down? ???

aussiechick63: Yeah Massive go for it.
I have used it all over,really all over, and haven't had any problems at all.
I'm going to try waxing (if I can stand the pain) this week. I will let you know how much fun that is.
I would like to try something permanent but think, What if I want my hair when I get old.

One of my guy friends offered to come and watch.
HAHA In his dreams. :D

Ouch :o - don't they use that for torture in despotic regimes! Electricity and genetalia should never be mixed apart from severe S&M!

Hurricane Isabel reminds me. No matter if you plan to shave or use a dipilitory, if you'll just give your hair 24-hours notice, most of it will get out on its own.

(The difference between 000h and aaaaaahhhhhh is about 3 inches.)

BTW, hey Pecker! You've been promoted? Fuck me with a rhythmn stick! I've been gone that long?

Hey Orca!

Not a promotion - I just volunteered to wear the Hall Monitor badge at The Healthy Penis.

It's good to see you posting again, man. We don't get to hear enough from you these days.

ORCABOMBER: Good to be back Pecker.

okay, on topic. when I have nothing better to do, I'm going to have to use some veet. But no rush.

I'm just wondering how soneone would get hair permanently removed now...

I still think that you're just stuck with electrolysis for permanent removal. Waxing and creams last longer than shaving, but frying the little buggers off is the only way for permanent smoothness.

ORCABOMBER: Longtime, I wasn't considering it, just wondering, because I'm a hairy bugger (probably literally ;) ) and it'd look a little out of place, like a muff on a smooth body in reverse!

da_blissmachine: yes, is there an easier way to remove all the hair from my body!?!? other than chemo

aussiechick63: Lurker, I finally did wax and let me tell you they should be using it as torture if they aren't already
Man that was the most painful thing I have done but it lasts quite well. Nearly time to do it again.. AAAAHHHH
