Nair Survey Sheds Light on the Hairiest "Problem Areas"

Knowing that unwanted body hair can be a complicated matter among women, the survey set out to better understand which areas are the most problematic, how women feel about them and how they impact their daily routine:

• We're All in This Together: Regardless of ethnicity or race, one thing is universal, millennial women ALL have a specific problem area when it comes to unwanted body hair. However, Hispanics are more likely than Caucasians and African Americans to say the following are problem areas:
• Upper lip (57% versus 40% and 33%)
• Hands/knuckles (20% versus 10% and 9%)
• Back (17% versus 7% and 11%)
• The Biggest Offenders: Bikini line (72%), underarms (58%) and legs (52%)
• No Body Hair = No "Netflix and Chill": Many millennial women would give up coffee (48%), Netflix (44%) or sex (39%) for a month to be free of unwanted body hair for one year – an additional 38 percent say they would give up social media for a month
• Time is Money: Millennial women say shaving is time consuming (56%) and irritates their skin (44%), and that the hair grows back too quickly (72%)
• Mo' Hair, Mo' Problems: One in two millennial women say unwanted body hair has made them feel self-conscious, less confident, or insecure; younger millennials (57%) are more likely than older millennials (48%) to feel less confident due to unwanted body hair

To help women deal with their problem areas and feel confident in their own skin, the maker of Nair™ has partnered with Felicia Walker Benson, beauty expert and founder of beauty site ThisThatBeauty.com. "I am so excited to be working with Nair™ as one of the things I emphasize about beauty is that everyone is different - and that applies to our problem areas and finding solutions for them. For me, the combination of being a mom with limited time, traveling extensively, and having super sensitive skin makes every area of mine feel like a problem area, and I'm excited to show my fans how Nair™ products care for your skin, cut down on time, and make hair removal easier than ever."
