How to Shave Your Legs

Shaving legs is a long tradition. It's easy to do and becomes second nature in time.

Shaving your legs is a basic beauty routine that once adopted can easily become second nature. You need to start slow, shaving the first few times in a bathtub is usually a good idea. That way you don't have water from the shower falling into your eyes and you can really focus on what you're doing. Buy a nice razor, one that has a swivel head to get those hard to reach places like the ankles and knees, and start from the bottom moving up your leg.

When you first start you should use shaving cream to make the shaving easier and smoother. Go slowly around your ankles and knees because cuts there may be small, but they hurt and bleed a lot.

Do accept the fact that you probably will cut yourself a time or two when you first start and even after you're an experienced leg shaver, nicks will still happen. But after you finish shaving, put on some lotion to moisturizing the skin and to maintain the smoothness.

Shaving does make wearing capris, shorts, and skirts more fun, but you do need to start out slow and be careful.

But if you wax you cant wax again till like 72 hours later . And if u use the razor just put on lotion after you get out the shower or done shaving and itll last like 2 days with barley any hair.

@WeBestFriendsx3 Actually no, waxing is better, most people are just too scared of pain, (I'm scared of the warm wax)

Wax does leave your skin more dry, but that's what lotion is for.

With wax the hair is removed from the core instead of cutting it off like a razor. When the hair regrows it is much thinner and doesn't grow back as fast.

Razors also darkens your skin :(

At the end of the day, shaving is just quicker and easier, while Waxing takes time and effort for the process :/

@choiminako - waxing takes layers of your skin shaving is better

[choiminako]

Shaving with a razor is bad for your skin !! Plus it makes hair grow taller and much thicker just use the wax !, it's better

@jfox82588 it's a figure of speech, but how could we expect your little brain to comprehend something that complex?

And by the way it actually is part of the gay "look".

@bosnia91 a man shaving his legs doesn't make him a faggot. Having sex with another guy makes you a faggot. So stop being a homophobe and get your facts straight
