SHAVING POWDER IS BAD NEWS TO EVERYBODY!

today i am at my brothers house in the bathroom screwing around i see something called SHAVING POWDER and i was WTF IS THIS? so i read it and it seems you mix it with water and put it on your face and it melts away the hair all you do is wipe it off so i was thinking wow this can be awesome and i needed to shave. so what do i do i mix it with whater and read the directions carefully and on it goes. holy fuck it stings a little oh well it must be melting my hair away from me i wait five minutes then see i dont have anything to take it off with so i take out atm card and scrape it off like u are supposed to (its like a liquid mud consistancy kind of you just scrap it off and your beard comes off) well OH SHIT MY FACE BLEEDS!

MY FACE BLEEDS into the mud because of this shit! BULLSHIT! it stung me so bad i even cried irl because of this shit. i think it melted off some skin and even now it hurts so bad after like 8 hours. THIS DOES NOT WORK OK! yes it took off my beard! and my face isnt red it just made it like blood some places! oh jesus why did this happen my brothers roomate uses this shit i guess. only 5 minutes leave it on it says so i start to take it off in like 4 minutes. right away i knew it was a bad idea but i have no choice.

in case you are thinking of doing this plz dont. use electric or a razor plz. the good thing is yes my face is very smooth oh my! it made it smooth and gave it a good numb feeling for awhile but oh no it bleeds now. jesus. i wish it didnt hurt me so bad to make me cry irl or maybe i would really like this stuff. :(

can somebody offer tips plz? to make it work better thx.

Ouch. No advice here, except never try that again.

Oh, and not trying to make you sound stupid or anything, but are you sure that was for the face? I've seen things like that before, but they're strictly for body hair.

Yeah don't use anything but traditional methods. I tried using something similar on a small area and it only removed some of the hair and irritated my skin for weeks.

My mom used something similar and had a big burn mark on her chin. True story.

It's just a concentrated dipilatory. Chemically it's the same shit as nair. And yah, if you leave it on long enough it will eat your skin off like acid.

Holy $hyte I can't imagine how bad that shit burns. I've put nair on my chest before (don't ask - trying to impress a chick of course :tickled: ) and even that irritates the fuck out of me.

Anyway, facial hair is usually some pretty tough shit - so if it's strong enough to dissolve it, then it's probably strong enough to dissolve your face (which is probably one of the most sensitive areas of your body).

I naired my legs and my chest for swim team, and as long as it didn't stay on any given spot longer than 4 minutes I was safe. ANything longer than that and I was in a world of hurt for days.

This is a very Funny Thread...

Once I used Nair For Men on my chest... It bled, and was very irritated for awhile...

Bad idea.....

Very funny thread...

For shaving... Use a Mach 3... I wanna check out those motorized Mach 3s... They seem... Dangerous...

You might as well had a can of air upside down and spraying it on your face to freeze the hair off.

Hey I also noticed that I haven't really been posting or visiting NG.com for a while, but, I realized that when the site got rennovated, my "status", or "points", dwindle a hell of a lot. What Gives With That?

I don't know whether to be shocked or laugh.
maybe it's for legs or something. something like that though you should only
use a little bit on a small area before tossing it all on your face.

I'm with you feelgood.
One day I got sick of my hair and decided to shave it off. But the electric razor I was using was not strong enough and ran out of batteries. So I took some of that crap and put it on my scalp. I was fine for a bit but then a minute or two my head was on fire. I was in lots of pain. So I wiped the stuff off.
Sure it took my hair off but also left scabs all over my head. I looked like Fredy. It really sucked. Oh, and sleeping at night. That was near impossable it hurt so damn much.

well this stuff really is for your face and beard it says! it is not body hair remover but a beard remover! and when i wake up this morning there are like some abrasions on my face looks like i rubbed b=my skin raw with sandpaper in some parts. the strange part is it is my neck that is most tender! why my neck when my face should be more gentle or something its weird. i think maybe i should just wipe it off with a cloth instead of scaping it with an atm card. maybe i scraped my skin and the powder burned my scrapes. and im still smooth but my hair that is growing is very sharp not like when i use a razor my hair isnt so sharp when it grows back.

im suprised to see so many people have bad experiences with this sort of thing. why do they sell it then? on the container it says "recommended by the national medical association" wtf? maybe recommended so you go to their medical association with burns all over your face and pay them many $$$ to fix ur burns!

AND BTW THIS STUFF SMELLS LIKE HARD BOILED EGGS.

A lot of African-American men experience bumps with razors so its formulated for their skin. Do not use this unless you have those symptoms and are African-American.
