I really hate shaving! But hate the feeling of hairy legs

AmyLR94

I just would like to ask women (and men) what they use to shave?

I really hate shaving but I need to shave because I don’t like the feel of hairs on my legs, which then it takes me a while in the shower. I have tried women’s razors 3 blades and above, I have tried men’s razors 3 blades and above, I have tried going with the way the hair goes (but ends up not smooth enough).
I would consider laser tools but unfortunately I have tattoo’s, I don’t really like the smell of creams either.

I have sensitive eczema skin and every time I shave throughout the years I end up with spotty/rashy legs (even if they are smooth). I just would like to have smooth clear of spots legs that I don’t need to shave Sob

Any ideas or recommendations? Thanks in advance x

  • If you rule out razors, creams and laser removal then I can only think of 3 other options:

    1 - waxing. Probably not good with your eczema.

    2 - electric razor. Will still leave very short hairs and you need to use a balm afterwards to avoid a rash with sensitive skin.

    3 - epilators. A bit painful but the last option I can think of.

    There is a useful review of epilators here if you are interested:
