What do you used on your legs for hair removal?
February 14th is not only Valentine's Day, but it was also my 27th wedding anniversary. I was going out that night and wanted to look my best. I decided to use Nair on my legs - worst decision ever. It burnt like crazy.
What do you use on your legs to remove hair? We would like to hear from you. Diane (Team Member)
, ooh yes, those hair removal creams can be pretty irritating 😢 I don't have a lot of psoriasis on my legs so I just shave them and kind of work around any patches of psoriasis that I have. I also go through fairly long phases of just not shaving for various reasons. I have an epilator which I think would probably be kinder on the psoriasis (it pulls the hair out from the root without removing any skin like shaving does) but it's very painful!! Certainly not something that I'm keen to put myself through anymore.
What do you usually do for hair removal, Diane? Vicki wrote a couple of articles on hair removal that I thought may be of interest: https://plaquepsoriasis.com/living/hair-removal-psoriasis
