I have extremely sensitive legs and I hate shaving them because it hurts for 24 hours afterwards and I always get horrible razor burn. Does anyone know of some non-razor method that actually works or some really awesome razors that don't cause razor burn? I've tried an electric razor, and while it didn't cause as much razor burn, my legs were never smooth and it took 30 min to shave to get them to anything even remotely resembling smooth legs. As far as disposable ones go, I've tried lots, but am wondering if there is some miracle brand out there.

Have you tried the Schick Intuition stuff? Also do you shave while in the shower or after you've showered and have the water off?
I use the Mach 3 razor and a shaving cream, Skintastic for Sensitive skin
edit: yeah, like Couqi said.....I do all this while in the shower. And, don't shave more than every other day or so.

Yes I have, they were okay, but the soap thing only lasts through about 3 shavings, and them I'm back to the original problem.
I shave in the shower and ALWAYS use shave gel, it's 10x worse if I don't use shave gel.
Does nyone else find it amusing the Coqui was the first to respond to a girl's thread?

1) I'm married. She's used it before. The concept behind it actually makes sense.
2) My face has less chance of razor burn when I shave while actually taking a shower.

Blades are only good on women's legs/pits/crotches for one week TOPSzengirl said:You're supposed to change out razors once a week
Right now I only shave once a week anyway cause it stings so bad, I put it off till I can't stand it anymore.
No, I use the regular ole venus, sometimes with soap but most of the time with only water in the shower and it works great, never even nicks or cuts and no razor burn.. IF YOU CHANGE THE BLADE OUT AS OFTEN AS YOU SHOULDkiwi said:
dull blades = razor burnI ususally use an electric. My legs don't get all irratated and itchy.

I've tried Nair, but had a BAD reaction to it. It burned and it actually made my legs bleed. It was nasty. Electrics are the best imo. You might have to shave more often, but it's so quick and easy it's worth it.
