Removing Dark Hair on My Legs

I have a problem with getting rid of the hair on my legs. I have really fair/transparent skin and thick black hair, and I can never seem to get rid of it. If I shave or use remover cream it seems like I can see the hair follicle through the skin (it looks like black dots all over). If i wax i get red inflamed spots instead. Help

Are you allergic to dipilatories? Do you have such products as Nair or Neet there? I believe there are some made that have anti-allergenic properties. A rep at the cosmetic counter of a department store might help you out? What do dermatologists say? On the Internet?

Sounds like laser hair removal might help you. I know that the laser works the best for pale skin and dark hair. I'm saving my money to have some done on my face, so I hear your problem. Good luck!
