TIFU using Nair for the first time. So a story I just read reminded me of this one. This happened when I was about 14 so this is more of a That Time I F’ed Up story.
I had heard about Nair & wanted to try it since I was horrible at shaving my legs & would cut my knees up all the time cuz they were super boney. So it’s the middle of the day but I decide to take a shower cuz why not? I hop in, do my thing, last thing is to apply the Nair to my legs & then I cut the water off cuz it was that kind that had to sit for like 10 mins & I had run out of hot water at that point so I didn’t wanna stand in cold water for that long.
Now, I had forgotten that there was construction going on just down the street where they were building new houses. That’s where I fucked up.
So the 10 mins pass & I go to turn the shower back on to just rinse off real quick, hoping there was maybe a little hot water back. Nothing came out. I start to panic a little as my legs are starting to itch/tingle bad. I run to my parents shower & try that, no dice. I really start to panic & yell for my brother through the door. He comes up I tell him what’s happening, he runs to the kitchen to try the sink but no water. After a few minutes of panicking & burning legs we decided to sacrifice the gallon of milk from the fridge before I got legit chemical burns & not just irritated skin.
Turns out, the construction guys had hit a water line & they had shut off the water main to that pipe which also happened to cut off water to our house & since I had used all the water in the water heater, after that the pipes in the house were dry. At least my mom wasn’t mad about me having to waste the gallon of milk she just bought. I have never used Nair ever again.
Tl;Dr used Nair, ran out of hot water in the house & didn’t know that the water main to our house had been turned off due to construction nearby, almost got chemical burns & had to use milk to get the Nair off. Edit:formatting
