I've always hated shaving, but other hair-removal products are messy, smelly and hard to use. After seeing many ads for this product I happened to see it in CVS and decided to try it. The first thing I noticed was that the cloth strips provided were *half* the length (or less) than the ones shown on TV. But I pressed on, and read the directions fully. The gel is a bit slimy, but that was tolerable. What wasn't tolerable was the extreme pain I was in after ripping off the strip. They call this painless?!?! I don't know how those folks pictured in the ad were able to keep from flinching. I was almost in tears. Not only that, it didn't remove all the hair from the area! After that it just sat on my shelf. I accidentally discarded my receipt so I wasn't able to return it. Eventually I tossed it out in the trash.

Please don't ever buy NADs. It was the worst experience I have ever went through sometime last year. I have never ever used that product ever again nor will I ever recommend it to anyone I know or don't know. The slimy gel is extremely sticky. The cloth strips are not even sewn together so they start falling apart string by string. Anyways, this is what happened to me: I followed those damn directions (I didn't shave for about 2 months, so that I would make sure my hair was long enough) I put the slimy gel on my legs applied the cloth strips like how they said on tv and on the directions. And BAM! great PAIN came along. My leg was red (the directions say I may incur redness) I thought it was nothing. I tried to use the same strip again, while we know how that went: IT DID NOT WORK! So I applied more slimy stuff and started all over with a new cloth strip. Needless, to say I really want to make a long story short. I ended up bleeding and left with bruises for the for a very long time and they weren't small ones either (they were they size of the cloth...grr. Also within those bruises I had lil blood clots everywhere. It wasn't a pretty sight to see. My boyfriend also tried to help me after because he thought I was probably doing something wrong, but with easy direction like that how can you go wrong. So, I ended up crying from all the pain, bleeding and and hour after plus the next I saw the horrible marks it left. I also tried the microwave directions too. I recommend the conventional way of shaving: it's nice and safe for all!

I bought Nads of the T.V. infomercial.When I recieved it, I only got half my order and got billed on my credit card for twice the amount I was supposed to be billed for. I called customer service numerous times and each time they told me they would fix it. Needless to say they never did. So I tried the wax it was very messy, and didnt pull out one hair I tried it in different places on my face and body.So I returned it only 4 days after recieving it. I never recieved credit back on my credit card. I was billed for $80.00. Returned it and never got back a penny. It was the worst $80.00 I ever spent!!!

I dont think this product is as bad as some of the other reports here, but it barely works at all and it does sting. You have to clean out the cloth strips in hot water every time you use them, and they fall apart fast. The gel is sticky, but it doesnt grab the finer hairs, and even leaves some of the full grown hairs. I do have to point out one thing... its safe, non-toxic, doesnt stink (smells sweet in fact) and at least it works some times, which makes it one of the top products in the As Seen On TV hair removal line. Sad, huh? My biggest complaint is the hidden charges they hit you with. "Shipping" for your "free" vitamins, and all those other offers they bombard you with when you call.. dont you dare try a "trial" of anything or you will be stuck getting it (and getting charged for it) for months! I tried a "trial" 30 days to some stupid coupon club and was immediatly charged for it, with the customer service rep claiming I would be refunded after I cancelled. So, I cancelled on the spot. Guess what? No refund, continued billing. I had to cancel the credit card!!

Buyer beware! I purchased Nads a few years ago. I received the "free" vitamins and was billed for it too. I thought my nightmare was over. I occasionaly receive telemarketers telling me that I have a "free" gift coming to me. Sure... I got a call a few days ago that I had received a free gift for using my Visa card. I figured oh wow I may have won that contest that was announced on tv. No! After asking a few questions I found out this company had received my personal information INCLUDING my CREDIT CARD # from the same company I had purchased Nads from. I no longer feel safe in making purchases through the phone or online.

That product is stupid. I bought that dumb NADS stuff and let me tell you....IT DID NOT PULL THE HAIR OUT!!! They are liars. DO NOT buy anything you see on television. they are liars I swear. and another thing, after a while the NADS isn't so slimy anymore. it becomes hard/thick or something like that. which becomes worse. And it pulls out the skin instead of the hair (isn't it supposed to be the other way around!!??)...DON'T BE FOOLED!

"Nads" did everything they claimed it would not do and nothing they claimed it would do. I tried it, knew I'd been scammed and tried to get a refund that was guarenteed. After many, many phone calls I only got excuses why I need to call back at different times, contact someone else etc. I even had someone repeat nads over and over to be rude 'till I hung up the phone. They will not give refunds and they will abuse your credit card. If you've seen the infomerical and try the product you'll feel very foolish. It is all false. I wish everyone would call or contact the large dept. stores selling nads and ask them to stop doing business with such "crooks." Bed, Bath, Beyond, CVS, Eckerd, Kohl's, Rite aid, Target, Linens and Things and more!

Nads removed a few hairs, but mostly removed only skin. In order to remove all the hair, I imagine it would take about 10 applications, since it only removed about 20% hair. If I had persisted in my attempt at hair removal with Nads, I would have gotten down to the subcutaneous layer of the skin. My legs would be extra sexy then... By the way, yes I did follow the directions. Anyway, it was horribly painful, extraordinarily messy and a total rip-off. Boy that infomercial sure made it look so easy and effective through the magic of television.

This stuff looked too good to be true and it was. I had watched the infomercial 3 or 4 times and saw it at a local store. I plunked down $30.00 for this and was very excited to use it. All I can say is that it was so painful, I couldn't even finish all the way around my leg. And the tv said you could use the same strip over and over...not true, it didn't work a second time. If I wanted pain like that I'd have bought an Epilady!

I purchased Nads after watching the infomerical many times. It look like the product really worked on all types of hair and skin types. My mother and I decided to give it a try. Not only did hurt but it left the hair on and a sticky gooey mess to clean up on your skin! This product is a large rip and I suggest staying far away from this one..

Painful? Yes. Sticky and messy? Yes. Does it remove hair? Not really. Unless you want to look like you have some kinda skin condition where you can only grow patches of hair here and there. Save your money.
