Can I 'veet' off the whole of my fanjita grass?

lol, I know its funny!

I was a veet virgin and was pleasantly satisfied with my gillette till yesterday

I veeted the legs, not so brilliant with that, but may try again, but did the flaj tonight (bikini line) and I'm real pleased!
(apart from discovering I still had cream on when I had rinsed it off and got out the shower) - thats a bit of a pain that it sticks like glue, but sure I'll crack that.

Shall I just cream it all off and surprise the oh?

Why the spatula too? Stupid thing, hands are better....

I do!

GeckoLovingHornedThing · 18/06/2009 21:01

I would like to know if this works too

go for it
by my experiment

BusyBeeWithThree · 18/06/2009 21:01

Wait and see how uncomfortable it is growing back before you remove any more. I find it unbelievable itchy a few days after removal!!!!

GeckoLovingHornedThing · 18/06/2009 21:04

I meant BE my experiment

Whitty · 18/06/2009 21:07

I wouldn't have thought it was itchy growing back?

Any tips for rinsing it off well?

Just wait and see.....perhaps I am weird but my sister is itchy too!!!

TheProvincialLady · 18/06/2009 21:46

It's not itchy but you have to get the cream - the highly chemical, strong, burny stingy cream - very close to parts of the anatomy that do not like to have those kinds of substances on them. Or near them.

You need a mirror and no dignity or self respect whatsoever. And you will never do it again.

TheProvincialLady · 18/06/2009 21:47

Oh, and it also leaves some burnt but not removed hairs. Kind of blonde and stubby. It's farking grim actually. Don't do it

Did she just say 'I wouldn't have thought it was itchy growing back?'

Oh

dear

I pray you are the exception.

Whitty · 18/06/2009 22:07

Well ok, maybe not so much as shaving.....

I agree with the Provincial Lady. Mine ended up more like a Mexican Hairless (unattractive dog) than a Brazilian.

If you have a lot of 'fanjita grass' veet is 2 for a £1 at our local tesco - also theres reductions on gardening equipment -strimmers and such like if you fancy decorative borders......

There is also more than one poster on here who has had a Bad Experience with depilatory cream on a c-section scar (even an old scar). So if you have one of those then I wouldn't...

nickschick · 19/06/2009 00:12

please tell me more about the c sect scar [worried]

PortAndLemon · 19/06/2009 00:29

I've searched for the specific thread on it, but I think it may have been in Chat and hence disappeared by now.

Mumhadenough mentions her experience here, but I know there were two or three posters with similar experiences on the original thread.
