Part 1 of 3: Getting your legs ready

1. Let the water flow. Make sure the water from the shower (or tub) is warm so that the pores open up - this will give you a better shave. Avoid choosing hot water, as hot water can dry out the skin and increase the risk of razor burn. Shower or bathe as you normally would so that the leg hair can soften.
   • You want to soak the legs for a good five minutes so that they are fully hydrated. So just follow your normal routine of washing, shampooing, conditioning, etc. Grab your legs last. If you don't have a nice ledge to put your foot on in the shower, jump out of the shower and start shaving while your legs are still wet.
2. Consider waxing your legs. While this is a lot more painful than shaving (unless you cut severely, of course), the results will last a whole lot longer. You will be serious for weeks have smooth legs; that is quite different from the measly one or two days of shaving. If shaving is unpleasant for you, waxing may be the best option for you.
   • There is also good news! Many women say that waxing becomes less painful the more often you do it. So bite through the sour apple now - you will reap the benefits later.
   • Don't feel like throwing money down the drain? Mix two cups of sugar with a quarter cup of water and a quarter cup of lemon juice. Mix the mixture over a low heat until the sugar dissolves and a sticky syrup forms. You can use this syrup to wax your legs.
3. Experiment with depilatory creams. Technology is getting better and better, and fortunately depilatory creams are too. In the past, hair removal cream smelled like dead animals in a broken refrigerator, and they didn't work very well either. Today there are creams that smell like a field of flowers and can depilate the legs all the way from the root. Moreover, this is a lot cheaper than having your legs waxed at the beautician!
   • If you have sensitive skin, this probably isn't the best option. The creams contain harsh chemicals that eat away your hair, and so are obviously not very sensible for use on very sensitive skin.
4. Invest in an electric epilator. These are fairly pricey and can hurt a bit, but they are possible. Electric epilators are devices that pull the hairs out of the root in groups, a bit like large, super-effective tweezers. And because the hair is pulled from the root, your legs will stay smooth for a lot longer than if you shaved them.
5. Consider laser hair removal if you really mean business. If none of these options sound good to you and you are in a good mood, why not opt ​​for laser hair removal? Sometimes laser treatments are painful and usually multiple treatments will be required, but imagine never having to shave your legs again. Delicious!
   • In some cases, the laser treatment is not permanent, and you will occasionally have to return for a service - a bit like with an MOT inspection for the car. Although this method seems almost magical, it does have drawbacks that you should take into account. Before choosing this method, consult your dermatologist.

Tips

• Use baby oil for a soft, shiny look.
• If you cut yourself while shaving, apply some antibacterial cream or lotion to speed up recovery.
• Shave up to cut the hairs, then down to make sure the hair will grow back neatly.
• Shave with conditioner. Believe it or not, it really makes your legs smoother!
• Hydrate the legs when the skin there is quite dry. If you don't, it will feel uncomfortable and rough as the hair starts to grow back.
• Be gentle on your ankles and knees. These are uneven areas that are difficult to shave. Apply shaving cream to these areas.
• If you're using an oil-based sugar scrub, rinse it just enough to get the sugar off your leg - your legs will be wonderfully soft. A bastard sugar scrub smells delicious. You can also choose massage oil, coconut oil or another product that you prefer.
• Try not to shave your legs for two weeks. So the legs will be smoother when you shave them.
• Apply some lip balm to the cut if you cut yourself.

Warnings

• Do not shave your legs when the skin is dry. It is extremely bad for your skin and will cause more scraping if you don't use soap or shaving cream. There is also a very good chance that acne-like showers will appear on the shaved skin.
• Use caution when using depilatory creams. Half of the ingredients in depilatory creams, such as Nair, are intended to repair the skin damage caused by the depilatory cream itself.
