Yes, for God's sake don't use Epil-Stop!!!!! I tried it and though it did remove about a six-inch patch of skin it left the hair quite intact. I have that really resilient, dark, non-sensitive skin that you can practically take a blowtorch to without a problem. That stuff instantly started to burn and my skin popped out in this red rash....it was terrible.
I found Nad's to be a big jar of horsesh*t too. It's sticky, messy, yucky, and I didn't think it worked.
The best policy is this: if you need hair removal that you either can't or don't want to do by shaving, then go have a professional do it. It seems expensive, but considering that you only have to go once to get it done right and you aren't wasting tons of cash on crap that doesn't work, it is rather cost-effective. A good waxer won't need to do you near as often as you'd need to do yourself.
