Another reason to wax....One of my clients decided to save some money. She bought some Nair and put it all over her bikini area. Within two minutes, she felt an insane burning sensation. She quickly removed the depilatory cream and looked down to see her inner lips swelling up. She could barely walk and was in so much pain, her man had to take her to the hospital. Not only did she have an allergic reaction to the cream, she had second degree burns over the entire area. It took awhile for the swelling to go down and for the area to heal. Yea, I think I'll stick with waxing.
