I tried hair removal cream last night in a couple spots. It didn't work great so I figured i might not have been thorough enough. Tried it again more thoroughly this morning, still poor results but also fairly painful! Mild burns/rashes on armpits and nipples. Very glad i didn't do anywhere more sensitive.

So that is firmly off the table from now on.

That stuff is wicked. I use it on my downstairs area because shaving is way more hassle than I'm willing to go through, but it definitely burns every time and feels uncomfortable for the rest of the day. I wish there was another solution that wasn't shaving, waxing, or lasers.

I find it’s great for getting rid of my arse crack mohican. Can’t let it anywhere near the happy sack though. Burns like hell.
