Nad's For Men Body Wax Strips

Have now used these on my Back and Chest (or rather my wife has done it for me) and I am impressed.Having had a Back and Chest wax at a salon before I can honestly say the results with these are largely on par.Warm the strips up very well (we sit them on a hot water bottle for a few mins to get nice and hot) rub into place and leave for a few seconds then pull the skin taught and rip off (yes rip - v quickly) against the direction of hair growthFor me, I let the hair grow to at least half a cm (5mm) to allow the wax to really grab holdI shall be using these intermittently for a good while yet - top product and does the job nicelyFinal note - YES it hurts, you are ripping hair out of your body - of course it hurts. Pain levels are all different for different people though. I find it tolerable but then I also get my eyebrows threaded and have multiple tattoosI did get quite a severe waxing rash after first use but found that for my 2nd and subsequent waxes applying a towel soaked in cold water for 30 mins (re soaked every few mins to keep it cold) immediately after finishing kept that at bay. Sudocrem also works wonders in clearing up a waxing rashMake your own mind up guys, if you are reading this I suspect you are tempted.Give it a goYes you DO get some hairs left in place and missed that you need to tackle with a razor or tweezers if you have the patience but that's also true of a Salon wax.Pain wise;Back 5/10Chest 7/10Stomach 7/10(Note for background info I have had both my elbows, and both knee caps heavily tattooed)

This is a brilliant product that works exactly as it should as long as you follow the instructions.Always wash your hands after finishing applying cream to the selected area of body! (I didn't use gloves, so can't answer question regarding use of gloves.)I gave it at least 6 minutes before wiping a small patch as a test to which hair came off easily from then onward. Yes, there may have been a few patches where hair didn't come completely off but it's not the end of the world. Not hard to use a razor to tidy up the remaining hair. I wouldn't apply a second layer for missed hair.I did have minor reactions to the cream, but only because I failed to wipe the cream off properly which is important. Otherwise it'll continue to react with the skin which led to tiny red blotches which soon went away after cleaning the remaining cream off.It does smell a little and a shower/bath after use will remove any lingering smell.Use of this cream on all parts of body is fine, but I've seen questions about use on face which I wouldn't recommend. The company do not endorse use on head or genital area to prevent action being taken against them due to any idiots who may incorrectly use this, but everywhere except the head seems fine in my opinion.For the women who seem to look at this as a possible option, I'm not really sure about why there would be a need to look at a man's product for hair removal. That's just my opinion. But remember that everyone should accept that there is always a risk with products and don't be ready to put all blame on the manufacturer should you not heed the instructions. Test it on a small area prior to full body use and understand that the 10 min recommended maximum time is for a reason.

OK, am thinking how to best word this one lol ;o).1. IT REALLY DOES WORK, without any doubt!! If you have some undesirable or awkward hair you'd like to completely remove, you've just found the stuff to achieve that.2. As many other reviewers have also mentioned, the stuff definitely has an unmistakable and unique "bouqet"!! They've attempted to take the edge off with the addition of various fragrances but make absolutely no mistake, if you've applied this cream to your body you're not going to accidentally forget that fact (that's for sure) ;o)!!!3. It's probably advisable to go about the required process alone and in certain cases, unless you enjoy being thoroughly humiliated, plan some additional post procedure alone time as well. I'm incredibly thankful that I had the house to myself to use this stuff ;).4. Just in case, have a suitable topical cream (the stronger the anaesthetic properties the better) and an ice pack or 7 on standby!! This should/may not be necessary, but I can't emphasise strongly enough that it's an incredibly good idea ;o)!!5. GOOD LUCK :oP.With these important points out of the way, here we go..... Nad's is a thick white cream in a large tube like many common sun tan lotions and the cream is easily expelled for application. You don't need much cream to achieve the desired effect, one tube will go a long way. The instructions on the tube are clear and easy to read and after my very recent experience, I strongly suggest you follow them very closely!!As with another rather humourous reviewer, I also have the distinction of having one of the hairiest butt cracks in Her Majesties Realms ;o)!! For health reasons that shall remain confidential I needed to remove said hair which left me wondering how to best go about this particular task, when I stumbled upon (cue trumpets)....Nad's!!Armed with my tube of Nad's, a slight feeling of trepidation and the Warner Bro's "Looney Tunes" opening theme jangling in my head, I jumped into the shower as normal, quickly rinsed down and as carefully as possible applied the cream to the required areas, (by which time I was onto the "Looney Tunes" closing theme). With butt cheeks tightly clenched to stop the cream being prematurely washed away (trust me, you don't want to go through the process of applying this cream anymore than is absolutely necessary), I carried on with my shower whilst allowing Nad's to do its thing. However, I think I may have made a couple of small mistakes, the first of which was perhaps leaving the cream applied for just a little bit too long!!!!! After approximately 15 minutes busily showering, I grabbed a sponge, unclenched and went about removing the cream. Exactly as it states in the instructions, the hair I wanted removed was quickly and simply wiped away leaving me with, well you get the picture, at this point with absolutely zero side effects too, deep joy :o). I then went about thoroughly cleaning up and possibly made my second small mistake. I should have perhaps used a slightly milder soap and not been quite as coarse to get this stuff washed off...... Believe me, your instincts will be telling you to grab an industrial soap and liberally scrub the area(s) of application to get the smell of this stuff off!! But, with what happened next, I'd definitely advise rinsing and washing this cream off with considerably more caution than I exercised!! As I type, certain parts of my now incredibly smooth crack are glowing red and somewhat tender. I have been furiously applying Savlon with Lidocaine for the past 24 hours and it finally seems to be abating (thank god) ;o). Somewhat gratefully, I didn't get any cream on any super sensitive areas, BUT DAMN DOES MY ARSE STING SOMETHING FIERCE LOL!! Mission accomplished though and it's my VERY sincere hope that I won't need to repeat this somewhat difficult experience more than 2 or 3 times per year, as even that is 2 or 3 times too many. (Regardless of my newly found dramatic and instant ability to resound the best farts out of ANYONE I know, and have no doubt that is quite some achievement ;o) ).Thankfully, there is no actual rash or broken skin, (at least as far as any individual can tell by self examining such an area with mirror in hand ;o) ). I just seem to have caused some significant irritation that is now improving and Savlon sales in my locality should soon see a sharp decrease and I also won't further feel the burning desire (pun intended) to keep an ice pack firmly wedged between my butt cheeks ;o). Nad's most certainly does what it says on the tube and I can certainly think of a few individuals who I'd definitely recommend this stuff to should the subject ever come up in a drunken haze lol ;oP. Seriously however, it does work. Had I been more careful I could have easily saved myself a couple of days of a rather nasty irritation where you really don't need it. I very much doubt I'd be suffering at all with the benefit of hindsight to change a couple of steps. My experiences of hair removal are limited to a razor, shaver or clippers, lesson WELL AND TRULY learned. At least next time (oh god) I shall be better prepared and things should go even more "smoothly" (HAH :oP ).
