I can't imagine it's much good on feathers. Ha-ha. I'd be perfectly happy without any body hair except for maybe eyebrows, but noooo, I have to be a mammal.
I should make that hot chocolate before I go to bed.
I agree with everything but the Nair as well. If it has any effect at all (I've tried it with about two or three different types of Nair) the effects last less long than shaving, as well as the effects of shaving were smoother. So I'm like, "I'd rather spend forever risking cuts than spend forever smelling that crap." Very envious for those it does work on, however. ;)
You have to put it on fairly thick and leave it long enough to destroy the hair's structural integrity; the part about wiping it off with a washcloth is also crucial - the rough cloth helps grab the hair and tug it off. I also get best results when I ignore the part about 'do not re-apply for 24 hours' and do a second go after rinsing it off, just gooping up the inevitable missed swathes. Clean-up, you know?
