Part 2 of 3: Shaving your legs

1. 

   
   
   Use a new razor to shave your legs. Most conventional razors are only effective for about 5 uses, depending on how you store them. Shaving is most effective when you have a brand new razor.
   • Shave in the direction from the bottom up, against the hair growth, so you can shave thoroughly. To reduce scratches and soreness, only shave areas with hairs. Also, it's best to shave short - razors won't work if you do long shaves.
   • Wash the razor under running water after each stroke. Be sure to treat the skin around your ankles and knees, and add shaving cream to these difficult areas (if needed).

2. 

   Wash your feet with cold water. Cold water makes pores (even on the scalp). Pat your feet dry with a towel, being careful not to rub them vigorously.
   • Now it's time to check the legs. If you have missed any areas, you can treat it now. You will probably feel very bad if you find any remaining hair after you are done.

3. 

   
   
   Apply a thick layer of lotion. Use a thick cream, such as body moisturizer, if you have extremely dry skin. Apply a generous amount of lotion, concentrating on the skin around the ankles and knees one more time to soften the skin. You should not skip this step as the skin has just been hit by the blade! Add more moisture to your skin by applying cream. advertisement

Part 3 of 3: Understanding other methods

1. 

   Try waxing. Although this method is more painful than shaving (except, of course, if you scratch your skin while shaving), the effect will last longer. You will have smooth, clear feet some week - not just a day or two as with shaving. If you don't feel like shaving is working, maybe waxing is right for you.
   • And good news! Many women report that the pain will subside after each wax wax.So, just bite your teeth right now to achieve results later.
   • You want to save costs, right? Make your own homemade wax and wax!

2. 

   
   
   Try waxing cream. Technology is advancing, and so does hair removal cream. This product used to smell like dead organisms in a damaged refrigerator and it did not work as well. Now these creams smell like chrysanthemum fields and can remove hair from the root. This method is also more economical than the salon waxing method!
   • If you have sensitive skin, you shouldn't use this method. Hair removal products all have strong chemicals that depress the hair - certainly not the best method for delicate skin.

3. 

   Invest in a hair removal machine. This product is a bit expensive and feels a bit painful to use, but is a viable alternative. The hair removal machine is an extremely effective, group root plucking device, like a large tweezers. Since the hair is pulled at its root, your legs will be smooth over a longer period of time than with shaving.

4. 

   If you're serious, consider laser hair removal. If the methods above don't fix the problem and you can afford it, why not try laser hair removal? This method is sometimes painful and needs to be done more than once, but imagine that you no longer have to worry about shaving your legs. Too great, right?
   • Sometimes this doesn't work forever - you have to do it again, just like having your car serviced. Although this method sounds very miraculous, there are some downsides that you need to be aware of before doing so. Talk to your dermatologist before making a decision.
