I Love Shaving My Legs

I love how my legs look shaved, but I get horribly itchy after. Creme helps a little, but the itching is so bad I can't sleep sometimes and it makes me crazy.

Epilating works to get rid of the itching, but it is not fun to do.

My electric razor works, but it doesn't take the hair down as far as shaving does, but it also doesn't leave me itchy. It means shaving a lot more though due to hair growing back quickly.

Maybe I should make a trip to Mexico and have it all lasered off? Has anyone tried this? I hear those home laser guns don't really work well.

I'm not sure how long you have been shaving your legs but on the plus side the itching does eventually stop after a while. When I first started i used to itch myself bloody, now I can go as far as to DRY shave and I'm just fine.

Maybe it is somewhat related to that. I stopped shaving for a while and then started again. The first time I shaved it wasn't too bad, second was OK too, but then I changed to a new razor that had 4 blades instead of 3, and the itching was incredible. Perhaps the 4 blade is taking off too much?

@AdventureRider: might be.
