Sally Hansen Hair Remover Kit, 1 Count, Quick and Easy Wax Strip Kit (Packaging May Vary)

I've been using this product for years and it never disappoints me. However, it MUST be used for a different purpose other than the one advertised. These strips will not remove coarse hairs! It might take a few out... Any user on here that claims, for example, that it gives you a leg wax similar to a professional one isn't giving you an accurate review. It will, however, do an EXCELLENT job of removing fine, baby hairs. That being said, once a week, I pluck any coarse hairs on my chin and above my lip. I then proceed with these strips in the same areas. Naturally, I finish with the oil provided, leaving these areas baby smooth.

People who give TMI always give the best reviews, so I'm going to overshare on this one. I have a long-standing obsession with leg waxing. I can't stand having prickly legs and all you get with shaving is prickly legs and that itchy feeling pretty much immediately. So since college, I've tried every hair removal product you can think of- Nads, microwavable wax, an epilator, laser removal (which did nothing, btw). This product is what I've settled on and have used for maybe 10 years. I think it's the safest, most effective option. First of all, hot waxes or "natural" waxes that come with cloth strips tended to stick too well to my skin, so pulling the cloth left lots of wax and hair on my legs, and it was quite painful. I have a low tolerance for pain and I couldn't force myself to apply the epilator to my skin in order to even see if it would be effective. This wax comes in plastic strips that you heat just by rubbing it with your hands. Then you apply, hold your skin taut, and pull it off as fast as you can! I used to have to count every time- if you don't do a quick, sudden pull, you'll end up with the problem of leaving wax and hair on your legs. So one, two, three, RIP! It only hurts for the split second, then it's fine. I've experimented over the years with using this product right after a hot bath, using my hair dryer to heat it up, letting my leg hair get really long, etc. etc. Long leg hair helps a lot. There's no improvement on using your hands to heat the wax- just make sure you rub a little for friction and take your time with this step. The most important factor seems to be the quick pull, going against the direction of hair growth. I'll have red bumps the day after, but the soothing oil that comes with this kit really helps. It also gets any excess wax off your skin. I never get it perfect- there's always a little bit of shaving left to do. But with 95% of the hair gone, shaving is quick and my legs are only 5% prickly, and it's more than worth it to me.

Ahhh! Where do I start? Well this thing sucks. Bad. I decided to use it on my face, legs, and arms. I let the hair grow out, which is thick on some areas and fine on others. I let it grow out for about 1-2 weeks. I tried it on my face and it did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! I followed all the directions and exfoliated my face. I put it on in the direction of the hair growth and pulled it the opposite direction. I also made sure I warmed it between my hands before hand. Well, only two hairs came out. I tried re-applying once more and nothing. So I tried a different spot on my face, same results. I put the oil on, which did nothing because I woke up with a rash on my face the next day. I tried my arms 3 days later and not one hair came out. Its ridiculous. I got the same results on my legs. This product is an absolute rip off. It doesn't get sticky enough and it doesn't get any hair out. And it irritates your skin on top of that, whether its from re-applying and re-applying or from the actual waxing ingredient I don't know. All I know is that this product doesn't work and neither does that "soothing oil". Maybe I got a faulty product? I don't know. But this is the 2nd time I tried this particular brand, apparently it got good reviews. Not making the same mistake, you get what you pay for I guess. BTW, the picture advertised is different than the one on the actual box that you get. Just an FYI.

I purchased these because I get a good bit of thick black chin hairs and I’m tired of plucking my face everyday. I tested this in my arm first. It worked, pulled all the hairs out just fine, the finishing oil wasn’t much help with the sticky residue clean up though. And it left what looked like razor burn on my arm. No big deal. It didn’t pull any chin hairs at all. I then tested it on my legs, it wouldn’t pull any thick hairs at the boring of my legs but it would pull thin ones around my thighs. I was able to cut a small section and try on my upper lip, I don’t actually have a mustache just small peach fuzz but figured I’d try it anyways, it worked just fine and didn’t cause a rash on my face as it did the arm. It works, just not for what I was wanting.

I have been using this product for years now for my armpits and legs...I quit shaving years ago and since waxing is kind of pricy in salons,I am using these all by myself and it's working like wonders. I literally do not have coarse hair on my armpits anymore...but I did agree it's a lot of work and that's why four stars. I use it on my lower legs and armpits, and after using these strips,I use hair epilator to remove the rest because these strips doesn't pull all the hair. Actually I figured the oil comes with it makes it more easy to use epilator after waxing, especially on the legs...the whole process takes me more than 30 minutes but its worth it..the pics shown my legs after 1 week of waxing...I am also using a hair minimizing body butter which I also bought from Amazon so I guess it's also helping to reduce my hair...so yes I recommend this product !

Me duraron casi 1 año, son para las piernas pero las recorto y las uso para depilar mi rostro y bigote, sale mejoer porque las pequeñas no duran. Son las mejores tiras de cera que he usado porque arrancan todo pero hay que saber como usarlas. - El area a depilar debe estar limpia y bien seca, puedes lavar tu rostro o pasar algodon con alcohol para limpiarla. - La piel debe estar estirada en mi caso hago muecas para que el bigote quede bien estirado, luego jalo y asi no me lastimo. - Si hace mucho calor y tu piel suda, es mejor poner un poco de talco en el área y asi la cera pega bien y solo se pega al vello. - No pases la tira dos veces en el mismo lugar, esto irrita, es mejor que quites los vellos que hayan quedado con pinzas. - Echale aceitito de azulene a un algodon redondo de preferencia y limpia el residuo.

Its says 30 strips on the pack , you don't get 30 strips you get 15 which are double sided, the only useful ones are the 3x large that you get (which they deem as 6) totally misleading package content would not use again.

Me gusta el producto llevo varias veces usándolo y una maravilla para la precisión del depilado y el cuidado de la piel para el posdepilado. El empaque venía aplastado sin embargo el aceite y las tiras intactas.

Absolute waste of time, money, and bloody skin. When I received these before going on holiday I was quite excited, as it was too short of notice to get any "grooming" appointments at the beauty salons in my area. The box contained all of the listed wax sheets, the 'after oil', and instructions. After trying to heat sheets with hands ineffectively I moved to a rather risky move by using my hair dryer to help the process. (my hands got quite tired and the sheets not very warm). After placing each side of the sheets on each leg (lower leg, shin bone), smoothing them downwards, my husband assisted me in ripping off... the paper. And possibly 5-10 hairs on each sheet. I would have had to use the ENTIRE box on just my lower legs! In the end I just had to resort to shaving anyway! We also attempting using the underarm removal sheets provided. F***ing horrible and worthless. While my husband quite enjoyed laughing at my pain, again the sheets only pulled up a few hairs each. Unless you want to be waxing your legs ALL day with about 6 boxes of these, avoid and just got to the salon.

For the most part it works.
