As stupid as it says on the tin. Can you remove hair clogs with Nair?

EDIT: I don’t actually have a drain that needs to be unclogged. This is a showerthoughtquestion.

    Advice: Don’t use boiling water for toilets. It’ll melt the wax seal at the base…

      I appreciate the advice, but the overwhelming success of that method speaks volumes.

        That’s not just advice, that’s coming from experience. My dad did that for a while in the winter, to warm his toilet up. Yeah, after a couple months, the base of the toilet started leaking.

        I mean hey, you do you, but wax seals melt when exposed to hot water…

          You offered it as advice.

          I’ll do me.
