Home leg wax vs hair removal cream....

What are the pros and cons?

I can;t be bothered with salon waxes. Hot wax at home is effective but a bit of a palaver.

The cold wax strips I have variable success with.

I just tried tesco hair removal cream, OK but I'm not sure how long it will last?

I find cream removal lasts about 5 days. I just got this and its the easiest thing i've found

Thanks for this - the reviews look good, maybe I will try it out! I haven't used an epilator before.

I used to wax, specially on my legs and pubic aria,even if it hurted me like hell, becouse if i tweezed there i would get ingrown hairs.

But latelly i have been using a hair removal cream that is great, so now i remove my unwanted hair without pain. (and i'm so thanful for that!) What's really good about this cream is that it has some natural ingredients that also inhibit the hair regrowth in time.

Take a look for yourself at this hair removal cream review that got me convinced.

Body shop sugaring hot wax is the best! I personally dont like hair removal creams.

over the years my hair growth has reduced and they are much finer now.
