Common reaction: Nair works well, but caution must be used around the mucosal areas of the actual vagina/labia. It is a sensitive area to begin with, so even the pubic hair on the skin can get irritated and burn after use. If you are overly sensitive to the nair, you may need to use a sensitive razor and be very cautious, or go to a salon for a professional job. The burning should get better in time. Good luck.

chemical burn: You have a chemical burn to the area. You should see a doctor to evaluate your burn. You do not need to remove hair form that area, do not use any more chemical hair removal products in the pubic/labial/vaginal area, you can try cool compresses or soaking in cool water, .
