What about alternatives to waxing? Tyler, have you had any experiences with those hair removal creams (Veet, etc.)?
Anyone else thats a crazy bastard out there..... DONT DO IT!I got the bright idea myself once and said hey feck why not...
The Yeti is in full agreement, no use here either! hehe I did contemplate another product once, having years of experience as a Correctional Officer. I met a lot of bald guys in the system, of which I already had been for years, upon starting my time there. Anyways, already getting off topic again, ugh hehe, but I saw some of the African-American inmates used something I had never seen before. I forget the product name now, but it was actually in powder form, and they applied it in their cell, using water from their sinks, and then quickly took a shower to wash it off. I guess it "eats", like a chemical and the longer it's on the more potent it is. Now, I did see the product in stores on the outside too, and also in a slightly less potent version in a tube too, but as I was informed from the guys (and makes me laugh thinking back on it again)... I was told, "You can't use this C.O. (Correctional Officer), it will fry the crap outta ya!", as one inmate was telling me. He said, "It's for us Blacks only, it will burn your head and make you look like Freddy Krueger!", as he laughed and I did as well. Then he said, "Heck, I'm Black and I only used it ONCE! It burnt patches all over my dang head!" (hehe still smiling at the fond memory of the conversation- he was someone who shaved daily too, I then found out, not a user of the product. I wish I could remember the name of the product, if I see it or someone states it in here, I will definitely remember it.... oh wait... "Miracle" something or other... NO, not Miracle Grow either lol quite the opposite. But, when I did look at the small tin cans, later in my career inside, when doing cell shakedowns, and also the paste version in the store as well (Tube = "Mild" lol)... it DOES specifically say right on the side "For African-American use ONLY" That was when I was like, damn, and never bought the mild, I remembered being told I would look like Freddy Krueger from Inmate "Smith" (fake name). hehehe I hope you enjoyed my lil story, and I certainly enjoyed the memory relived, so thx all who read this. ~Yeti
