i need help,hehe! i started shaving when i was 13, and that was the biggest mistake ever, because of that it became worse,it becomes longer and thicker(i'm talking about my legs) so i have to shave once in a while,and i used to join beauty contest before so that is really necessary,but now i'm here in US there's a lot of hair removal products and i don't know what to use,the first product that i've use is just a wipe out hair removal cream,it's fast and easy but i get a litle pimple in my legs after using that,i don't know what to do,i don't like shaving it using shaver coz it becomes worst, can somebody help me with my problem?

The little pimples are probably ingrown hairs. If you have very thick hair on your legs this can happen. I would recommend getting your legs waxed as a salon. This only has to be done once a month, isnt as painful as everyone makes out and is absolutely no hassle at all. Also because the hair has not been cut it does not have a blunt edge to it so there is no stuble. I hope you have found this useful. I have had it done maybe about 10 times now and I highly recommend it.

Jimbo f*** off with writing obscene things on my response. I am actually trying to be helpful. Yes it does last about a month because it pulls the hair out my the root and starts to grow in finer. Especially after the third or fourth time. A professional does it too in their salon so it is no mess or hassle in your house and takes about 10 minutes. Those creams only keep you legs fuzz free for a day or two if you are lucky and the chemicals in them are so harch that your leg hair just melts. Jimbo, maybe you should go get laser surgery.

Have you ever tried getting your legs waxed ? i haven't but it will be better then shaving your legs every day, cause the hair doesn't grow back as fast. and those chemical hair removals are not so good for your skin! they burn the hair out of the folical! so what's that doing to your skin!? your lucky all you got was red pimples! lol i tried them once and it burned my legs and they got really dry for a long time. You are lucky you only shaved your legs! i started shaving my arms too, cause i thought they were hairy. lol They are a lot more hairy now that i have been shaving them on and off for nearly 10 years! i dont bother in the winter, and i shave them often in the summer. Have you ever heard of that before ? i've only ever met one person in my life who also shaves their arms.

Well, I do not use any sort of hair removal products besides a regular shaver. It has always worked the best for me. And even though you have to shave so often, it is really worth it to have sexy legs. I too have found that hair removal products give me a rash. I just wouldn't bother with them.

I think I am a bit late to this discussion but I think waxing is the best for what you want. I dunno if you tried it yet but it's painful at first but you get used to it. I hate shaving. It does grows more and thicker to me as well. Waxing removes the hairs and somestimes the root too. SO there is no hair for 1 month and less hair. It is good for armpit, the small girl mustache. if you wax alot and continue, you might have no more hair to remove at all.
