Hi there Blue,
Yes. I usually shave my legs while in the tub. I find that it is difficult if not impossible to get behind my knees. So in order to get the backs of my legs really good, I get out of the tub and prop my leg up on the toilet and stretch it out straight and twist around to get it....works so much better.

I don't shave my legs in the bathtub. I would have alot harder time shaving my legs that way! So I put shaving cream on my legs and prop one leg at a time on the toilet! I still miss spots! It might be the razor needs relplacing or it is just the angle. Whatever the reason it will continue to happen!

Yes that happens to me too. That is why I like waxing although it takes a bit more time and can be more expensive. I guess there are so many angles of the knees that it is hard to reach some spots when shaving. I think it happens with any type of razor because I haven't used Venus but it happens to me.

I have never tried waxing my legs! I don't think I could handle the pain that goes with it! With using a razor maybe it has to do with dullness and maybe the angles! It is hard to shave the back of the legs and it just isn't with the back of the knees!

I don't think i have ever tried the Venus razor. I use BIC razors. I have missed hairs ever so often too. I think it has to do with dullness in parts of the razor sometimes.

I think it might be the razor dullness, too! I shaved my legs the other day and again I missed some hair behind me knees! If it isn't my razor,I must be terrible at shaveing my legs and always have been! Ugh!

It doesnt matter what kind of razor I use I am always missing hairs usually my knees. It drives me nuts. Its hard to see in the showe though if Ive gotten all the hairs. Another thing I wind up doing pretty much everytime I shave is cutting myself. I have about 5 scabs on my legs right now lol.

My lower leg hairs have gottan lighter but the rest of my legs not! I still miss the leg hairs behind my knees! I do on the right of the knees at times to! It still drives me nuts! I will be grateful when I don't have to shave my legs anymore!

I wish I had your problem! My leg hairs,most of them grow in black and are on the course side! I have tried Nair in the past but it can be messy. This is whay I have not used it in so long. I could try it again! Short season is around the corner!
