Good evening and Happy Hump Day to all.

Has anyone tried Veet waxing strips for their arm pit hairs? Does it hurt bad?

How long between waxings?

Thank you for your help.

I haven't tried the Veet version, but I have the done armpit waxing before. It's not bad, really. At least it's not nearly as painful as private part waxing..for what it's worth! I think the best advice I've heard is not to let the hair grow too long between waxes. Good luck!

The first times hurt the worst and then it gets less and less painful each time you wax. I think the armpit is the least painful, then comes legs and then the privates are like.. oh god.

I've tried the waxing strips in the past, twice, once for underarms/legs and once for facial hair. I find that sometimes the wax sticks to the skin in some areas and doesn't rip out all of the hairs.. So you have to go over a few times. I think normal wax is better and cheaper too. I used the peel off wax instead of those white waxing strips.

I think I used to wait about 3 weeks between waxing underarms, so way better than shaving..

You can order a spray or cream online (unless you are brave and have a porn shop close by) that is basically lidocaine. It's the stuff for men to last longer...:-P. But makes waxing the privates much less painful.

I am sure it works on legs too. Never waxed my armpits, assumed it would hurt way too bad. Funny, I thought it would hurt worse than a Brazilian. LoL

I think waxing myself is much more painful than going to a salon too!

Definitely hurts more to wax yourself!!
