5 tips to shave the legs

• April 16, 2024

We all love to have smooth and perfect legs, but the truth is that sometimes we do not have time to achieve it. Some people prefer to shave once a month or many of us resort to the rake for moments of emergency, but how to shave the legs correctly?

According to eHow portal , it is recommended to shave the legs while taking a hot bath, since it is the moment in which your pores are open and it is easier to remove the hair.

If you want your shave to last longer we have some tips that can help.

1.- Exfoliate before shaving: One of the reasons why your legs stop feeling smooth and uniform so fast is because, at the time of passing the rake, there are small hairs that you can not cut. These continue to grow and cause your skin to feel scratchy.

To avoid this, exfoliate your legs before shaving them. This will remove dead skin and expose even the smallest hair, making it easier to cut.

2.- Use a brush: To generate more foam to shave, use a brush with your gel in small circular motions. The brush, like the exfoliation, stimulates the hair and helps you achieve a perfect shave.

3.- Change your rake: With use, the knives of your rake lose their edge and stop working as they should. Change rake as often as possible and consider buying ones with several leaves.

4.- Do not use soap: Soap foam is less slippery than it looks and can create a bit of drag for your rake. Use gel or foam to shave or, failing that, hair conditioner.

5.- Use rake with humectant: An extra layer of protection will help you keep your skin soft longer. Some rakes have a bar integrated to help moisturize your legs. Choosing the right "hardware" is half the battle.

When finishing the shaving you should rinse your legs thoroughly, dry them with small strokes with the towel to avoid irritation and apply a moisturizing cream. And you, do you know other tricks to shave the legs?
