i shaved and now my hair is growing back really dark and thick. if i use shaving cream, will it grow back the same way?

i dn't wana wax, either. i heard it hurts, and i dont wana fullstop (.)

Well. It was going to anyway.
That is. Grow back like that.

Did you expect it not to grow back like that? Anyways, using shaving cream won't give you any different effect.

Other than waxing, you could try a depilatory, which is a lotion that removes hair, like Nair or Salley Hansen. (But.. I don't reccoment it because it smells.)

You could try that Veet thing (it's like Nair). A lot of my friends say it works well, I have yet to try it though.

Well, shaving, waxing or tweezing your leg hair makes your hair grow back coarser.

Shaving your legs tends to leave your legs soft and exfoliated but, your hair does grow back faster.

Waxing is a simple way of getting rid of your leg hair but it could be really painful.~your hair might grow back in 4 weeks.

Tweezing.. who has time for tweezing their legs?

You could try ripping the hairs off your leg with your mouth. Argh.

^ you're kidding right? my god.

No it's always going to do that. forever and ever...

Why would I be kidding?






































Pssst. Yes, I'm kidding.

Shaving definately does not leave your legs exfoliated lol haven't you ever heard of razor burn? If anything, the razor roughs up the skin and can cause irritation. The only reason why it feels smoother is because there is no hair. You should put lotion on after shaving your legs and no shaving cream has no effect on how your hair grows back. I actually don't use shaving cream because I tend to cut myself more when using it. It makes the razor glide much more easier which means your more likely to nick yourself unless your very careful.

If you want to exfoliate your legs, use exfoliating soap or rubs, etc., BEFORE shaving! This is because your skin is much more likely to become irritated after you shave.

It's part of being a girl- always hasseling with shaving. Every girl is different which means that each girls hair may grow in different, etc. I didn't notice any difference when I first shaved my legs and my hair never got any darker. So it just depends

i use veet, it is realy good, and it dosent smell that much like nair.

My friend is around 20-something.
She tweezes her leghairs. Her legs are softtt too.

there are topics on this, i think

try searching

I think you should try waxing.

It last for weeks and it comes back not as course since the hair that was there before was completely removed.

fallen fairy

no sorry, but it actually does. You usually get razor burn if you are not careful. It's proven in the June/july issue of Cosmo Girl.

Get your facts straight.

Holy poo. How long does it take her to do that?

Lol! No reason to get cranky. You can get razor burn in various different ways i.e., shaving to hard, shaving without water, etc. If shaving exfoliates skin then pigs fly =P I've never heard of it nor does it exfoliate my skin or anyone else's skin that I know of.

use veet or wax.
waxing doesn't hurt that much and you'll be hair free for 4-8 weeks

hair doesn't grow bad thicker and darker. it's just a misconception. the reason why sometimes it may look like that is because of the angle that it grows out. but i think waxing is the best method to go.

Well, if you have time to tweeze, it's better than using Nair or Veet because it doesn't have chemicals and whatnot. It's healthier for your skin, but again, not many people have time to pick out every single leg hair.

Try this:


...it lasts for 4 weeks

If you use shaving cream, it grows back the same way.

Try using nair or veet or something.

I wasn't trying to sound cranky :X. But shaving DOES exfoliate your legs. kthnx

shaving does not make your hair coarser/thicker/dark as stated above. The hair on your leg is different from the facial hair of a male. I mean, if you constantly cut your hair, it wouldn't go faster or anything, riite?

Try this, go without shaving for a few more days and you'll see that your hair returns to normal. When we first start shaving, it's around puberty. Somewhere I read, the hormones elevate the amount of pigments produced.

uh... Actually it does. Your pediatrician should've told you this at an early age.

Unfortunately, this is a VERY common held belief/myth that even some doctors believe. A lot of people associated body hair with men's facial hair which are two completely different types. The focilles are different so they have different properties. I read this online and in several magazines. Here are some sites that can explain it better than me.

You know what. Responding to the question of the topic, you can try electrolysis... or laser something treatment. It's expensive but it gets rid of the hair for like...ever.
