I saw this in an ad and decided to try it. I have never used a hair removal cream so did not know how well this product would work. Just the fact that all you have to do is spray it on, wait three minutes, then take your shower apealed to me. I do shave my legs/chest/arms and use normal shaving cream and razor.
I found a can in a local Rite-Aid Drug Store. Started the shower so that the water would be hot when I got in it. Open the can, sprayed my legs, then my chest, admomen, and finially my arms. It did go on fairly well. Some areas I had to re spray. I watched the clock in the bathroom and when three minutes were up, stepped into the shower. I have heard some people say that products like this, you may experience a burning sensation, but I did not feel anything like that. Once in the shower, I started washing off the spray. Most of the hair did wash off, but some did remain. After I finished my shower, I did have to use my razer to finish up. I do have to say that I am part American Indian, so don't have a lot of body hair anyway, so results WILL vary from person to person.
I plan to use it again. It might be that I need to do a better job of spraying and/or letting it sit longer, say 4-5 minutes instead of the 3 minutes the directions mention. The directions do mention that results will vary and applicationa and times may or may not be correct for all persons.
I used it last Saturday and will have to say that I do have less body hair showing today (Friday) than shows when I use only the razer. So one more time will tell if this product really does work or not.

Hi,
Aren't you the lucky ones having little body hair!
For girls with a fair amount of hair, like me, I would suggest caution when using hair removal cream. You need an awful lot. It can be messy, and there is the danger of a real burn on sensitive skin.
Talking from experience dont be tempted to use it on face or neck, the results can be disappointing. And there is nothing worse than trying to explain a burn on your face when you go back to work.
I am not so worried about body hair these days. I have waxed my legs and torso a number of times, the regrowth is finer. By using a hair lightener I have found my hair is less obvious.

First of all there is only enough in the 6 oz. can for two applications. Not being to pleased with my prior results, only because I made some mistakes using it, I decided to try again.
This time I made sure when I sprayed that I did a good job of covering my legs, arms, and chest. Also I decided to leave it on longer than the 3 minutes that is stated on the can. So I left it on for 6 minutes. At no time did I feel any burning or odd sensation while wearing the foam. Then I step into the shower and started showering off the foam. First thing I noticed was the very smooth feeling as I rubbed my hands over my body. Not sure if it was doing a better job of coverage or waiting longer, but I would say 90% of the hair did wash off. I still had to use my razer when I was finished, but only on spots. No way did I spend as much time as I would do using shaving cream and a razer. As I previously stated, I am part American Indian, so my results will differ than yours.
This was my first time to use a product like this. I was impressed on the ease of use. Spraying on the foam instead of wiping it on seems easier. Guess to compare I need to try one of the wipe on foam products to see if coverage and removable compares or not.
There is one where you spray on the foam, wait, then use a device that looks like a razer without a blade, that you use to remove the foam and hair. I may try it next.
One thing I did notice between the first time I used this product, is that the hair that did regrow was less than just using shaving cream and a razer. So it will be interesting how much hair return I have by next weekend.
It is the next morning (Monday) and I must admit that my body does feel smoother. I did not notice this affect last week. As I rub my hands over my legs and chest, I can not feel any stubles so so far so good.

Sally Hansen results
I have used the product with good result. The problem I found were that the can was very slippery. And the biggest fault was the spray clogged up on the can.
