How to shave your legs

Do you want to make your legs as soft and smooth as a baby’s? There are certain tools and tips that you must follow. You will need a shaving cream (for cartridge razors), lotion, and a razor.

Tips to shave

  • Add warm water to your skin. This will help open your pores and prepare your skin and hair.
  • Exfoliate your skin with a body scrub or loofah to remove desiccated skin that can impede the activities of your razor.
  • Ensure you apply a shaving cream if you are using a cartridge razor. The shaving cream will make it easier for the blades to move over the skin.
  • When you start shaving your legs, ensure you follow the direction in which the hair grows first, then go in the opposite direction after a while.
  • Make sure you rinse the blades after every pass to prevent your skin and hair from clogging.
  • To remove hair [2] strands and cream from your leg, you can rinse your legs with warm water. Rinse with cool water to close your pores.
  • Dry your legs with air or a clean cloth to prevent irritation or dryness
  • Use a moisturizer to lotion up. Moisturizers like aloe vera are effective.
