I burned my legs!

[gn1g]

Lord have mercy on my legs! I am a side line "that girl" participant. Last night I picked out this really cute skirt and top for work along with some red stilettos. Pin curled my hair and decided that I need nice smooth legs so I grabbed a bottle of nair applied it to both of my legs and after about 1 minutes my legs were on fire. I jumped in the shower, I could not get that stuff off my legs fast enough. Oh my word! :eek: I did everything to soothe my legs. I washed them with neutralizer shampoo and put olive oil on them they began to burn again. Well then I washed them again with the poo and put vaseline, they burned even more by that time my husband came upstairs asking me what the bleep was wrong with me. I ask him to bring me the aloe plant and he did, it helped.

I am about to call nair to see if they have a solution. Has anyone else had this problem?

I am sorry this happened to you. I can't use Nair either, it burns me too. I stick with my Venus razor and Alba Botanica cream shave. I used neosporin on my burned spots and they healed quickly with no scar or dark marks.

I can't find a number for nair.

can you get your hands on some emu oil? It works wonders for burns.

Prissygirl, stop being a meanie


Gn1g, I have never heard this happen to anyone. I tell ya to put some butter on ya legs - even those most doctors don't recommend it it has always worked for me!

How badly are your legs burned??

[cneal]

sorry that happened to you. it was most likely an allergic reaction, which i've had before. did you happen to shave your legs any of the days before?

i actually just purchased some [the kind for sensitive skin] after a long hesitation. i used it for my bikini area and thank goodness i did not have a reaction to it.

I can't use the scented nair. It burns me. I didn't get burn as bad as you did but I had to rinse it out quickly. I'm not sure what to tell you, you should start doing patch test before you use products.
