-cheap, pay lik $70 for it and you will have it forever or until it just dies of old age
-hurts but same as waxing, you have to get used to it

for facial hairs...the more you shave..the more masculine you'll look...if you dont shave..then i think the facial hair will always be soft, which lacks the image of masculinity

Hey louie.. tell me more about this cream.. are you referring to Nads??
Those Nads girls at Manly caught my attention damn... free hair removal last summer!

Right now.. i wax.. i think yeh.. its painful.. but at least it lasts longer..and it is very smooth... goes well with the ladies.. Shaving leaves yucky stubble.. and unless your of mediterranean origin or that guy going out with Megan Gale.. "designer" stubble is impossible.

no its not the nads products that are the cream and mousse....the product is called "veet"...you can get it from anywhere like supermarkets etc....basically its just mousse that u place on spots that u dnt want hair..then u wash off with a special sponge that cums with it...and the cream is rubbed off with a spatula that cums with it...the cream really smells, so i suggest the mousse..i dnt kno which one works better
