whats the best way to get long lasting smooth legs ? shaving or other ?????

Answer 1

waxing is best coz less hair grows back and it's finer when it does, but if you do shave, use johnsons hair minimizing lotion after - it keeps your legs smoother for longer and smells good. or if you want to spend more, benefit do 'touch me then try to leave' bathina creams which are meant to be good

Answer 2

Waxing is brilliant! Painful at the start but you soon get used to it. The plus side is that after a good few years the hair growth becomes very sparse. I could use a tweezers to handle the few leg hairs I have now. My sister shaves and one night when we had to sleep in the same bed, it was like death by a thousand cuts! Stubbly legs really hurt. Be brave and wax - you'll be glad you did.

Answer 3

Waxing I believe, if you can stand the pain. Shaving takes too long, and tends to leave thin stubble which will mean you have to shave often to maintain the smoothness, whereas waxing will take out the roots, hence the pain, but it takes longer to grow back.

Answer 4

Waxing lasts the longest, definitely, but can be painful when your first start. Also, you have to wait for the hair to grow back out before you can wax them again. Depilatories last a little longer than shaving, but can irritate the skin. It really depends on how much time you have, how long you want to wait, how much money you want to spend, etc.

Answer 5

for a longer smooth look, try waxing, theres some new veet strips out they really dont hurt either, just put them on, rub and pull back, its that simple, and it lasts longer than shaving too, plus my legs always seem better moisturised with waxing as shaving leaves them so dry

Answer 6

I agree with the rest - definitley waxing. Although i would recommend getting it done at a salon by someone who knows what they are doing. It will minimise the discomfort, if you haven't waxed before and yo do it yourself then it can take a while to get the knack and not have to do the same area several times!
I would avoid the veet strips, they take forever an you end up going over the same area over and over......

Answer 7

Try to use the Aveeno skin lotion with soy in it. The bottle says "shave legs less often". It's the bottle with the blue writing. It's a little on the expensive side but it really works. I rarely have to shave my legs at all.

Answer 8

Waxing for sure.. it gets ride of the hair from the root so it doesnt grow back as fast as it would if you shaved.

Answer 9

shaving is the smoothest, but only lasts 24 hours or so -and when you re-shave them, you scrape off youfake tan! Sugaring was good - I used to hav eit done. like wax but a bit more thorough

Answer 10

Waxing I think, but only if you don't have sensitive skin, if you do I'd stick with the razor. My electric razor is quite good too, better than the throw away ones.
