Well I have been wondering if I should use a depilatory until I can afford Laser Hair Removal/Reduction. So I just have to ask, does it work? And if so which products from your experiences work best? I have heard good things about Veet and Nair so I would like someone to clarify if they're actually good products or just another scam.

So yeah that's pretty much it. Hope you all can help me out.

Using a depilatory is basically same as shaving. It just removes the hair above the skin's surface. Basically, it disolves the hair above the skin. It can be irritating for some with sensitive skin. So you always have to test a spot.

Any of the brands available should work. I've found that you need to leave it on longer than recommended times for it to be effective.
