Hair removal for VERY sensitive skin?

Question

I'm a red head with very pale and sensitive skin. My body hair is light blonde and thick. Whenever I shave my legs, my hair grows back ridiculously fast. I mean I'm stubly again the morning after I shave and it will all be back after three days. I also get all kinds of ITCHY RED BUMPS EVERYWHERE. I researched and I think some are ingrown hairs, some is razor bumps. I tried using nair cream and it gave me CHEMICAL BURNS. I want to try waxing but I can't figure it out, the hair doesn't come off when I pull off the strip. I think it's because my hair is so thick. When some hair does come off it leaves PIMPLES behind. I have researched laser hair removal and at home lasers only to find out LASER HAIR REMOVAL DOESN'T WORK ON REDHEADS. 

SOMEONE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!! I'VE TRIED TO LIVE WITH HAIRY LEGS BUT I HATE IT!!! I JUST WANT SMOOTH HAIRLESS LEGS!

Answer

You probably need to go to a professional for waxing, they will be able to get you hair free. Laser prob won't work on redheads as the laser light is attracted to the dark pigments, so it works well on white skin with black or dark brown hair, but if you ask in a professional laser studio, they might have some new technique that works on red hair too. There is also electrolysis, which electocutes the hair one by one, but that will be very expensive and very painful, but is a permanent solution. I hope you'll find something that works for you :-)
