Hair removal creams work by breaking the disulfide bonds that link the protein chains that give hair its strength, making the hair disintegrate. They are not considered harmful but you should always test on a small area as you may develop an allergic reaction to them. After using a common problem is they tend to leave the skin dry so be sure to moisturize after use. The effects last about as long as shaving so depending on the speed that your hair grows you may need to use the product several times a week.Plucking (tweezing), Shaving, Depilatory creams and Waxing are temporary hair removal methodstry boots,superdrug

I've been using Magic Smooth Razorless Hair Removing Cream for years.You can buy it for sensitive skin (recommend this especially for the bikini area) or regular.Seriously, you can put it everywhere, (it stinks of course) then wipe it off. It doesn't get to the root, you'll have regrowth within a week or so, but it doesn't leave bumps or ingrown hair.Then for busy "bikini months", I just go the professional wax route.Be sure to exfoliate with a loofah before you use the product.
