Can you tell me how i can shave your legs and get rid of all hairs visible?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Really close shave: may increase risk for ingrown hairs. Insure you use fresh, sharp blades vice dull blades. If hair is > several mm long – then trim before shaving. Wash area before shaving – warm water helps to soften hair. Use a lubricant when shaving. Avoid using products that contain alcohol or are scented. Shave in direction of the hair – not against it. Be gentle when shaving – don’t push down too hard.
