Ang, I would be careful. Sometimes various solutions that don't cause irritation in one area, may cause extreme irritation in others. Further, I doubt that any of these solutions would provide significant relief of the pain of hair removal. The option of permanent pubic hair removal via laser is available. This is associated with some pain, but then you are done... Lynn
