hair removal

    hi,
    i have been working out for approx. 9 months now and am in pretty good shape.However due to the fact that I am pretty hairy..the results arent visible unless I wax or shave my chest etc......
    Waxing is way too painful and hurts like hell the next day and shaving just makes the hair grow back thicker and quicker..
    ive tried using those creams that "remove" hair but they never seem to work.
    DO any of you guys have suggestions of what I should do to stay hair-free without the pain and for a long time without waxing,shaving etc?would an epilator work on my chest?
    any help is appreciated....
    thx guys.

    What gym are you a member of?
    I'm a member in Westwood, and started getting my back waxed there recently. It's not painful (IMO) and as I'm a member it's pretty darn cheap..

    An epilator would hurt just as much as - if not more than - waxing. Don't know if the depilatory creams would work, but if you can get past the smell, give 'em a lash!

    I think your best bet is waxing. If the pain is your biggest issue, try taking a painkiller 30 minutes before your appointment and make sure that they use a gel with aloe immediately after waxing.

    I've been waxing my legs for a couple of years now and I notice the re-growth takes about 3 or 4 months to come back in. I always thought that was an urban myth, but it isn't!
