    Sorry but this kind of problem has probably been posted hundreds of times. I have been wondering where would be the best place to get waxing strips for men. I assume places like Boots would have them, but i dont want to go in and be walking around like an alien lost looking for this product. Also any advice on how to use them or would other products like hot wax be better to use. Plan on waxing chest shoulders..etc

    Thanks, first time waxer Mark

    I think the point was that he doesnt want to ask someone.

    Waxing at home is a bit of an imminent train wreck. If you have never been waxed before I would suggest going to a salon first because you would want to know what youre getting yourself in for.

    Wax strips that you warm up with your hands cause a reaction in some people, and according to most dont seem to get the job done. On the other hand, ive attempted hot wax about 3/4 times now and its just been an epic disaster both times (Im a girl by the way)

    In boots they'll be in the hair removal section, which is usually where the razors and stuff are. Im afraid I have no idea if they do seperate kits for guys yet

    Don't bother trying to find 'Mens Wax' stuff. It will be exactly the same as the womens but the price will be marked up. Try the cheaper of the two options (strips or hot wax) and if that works well and good. If it dosen't work well enough then the next time you are buying you'll know to choose the other type.
    I assume you have your own reasons for doing this so I'll not try to talk you out of it.

    Go for strips if its your first attempt. Hot wax is a bundle of sticky mess. And most of the Veet strip kits come with the wipes that get rid of the excess wax, where as the tubs of hot wax wont
