Hey .. You shouldnt be scared, becuase yes it is JuSs like your armpits but more to shave! Well you put shaving cream/gel on your legs and make sure the legs r wet.. then you juSs shave up your legs but dont dig into your skin and when u go on your knee be more careful cuz your knee it the hardest to shave ! Any more HELP JuSs ask<3 Colleen

USE SHAVING CREAM. Razorburn sucks.

Take your time. Use a SHARP blade.(Not sure? Use a new one)

If you are REALLY afraid of cutting yourself use an electric shaver. They're more expensive though and dont cut as close to the leg.

*Hehe, shaving your legs is simple. First buy Skintimate shaving cream or whatever kind you please. Get a Venus razor since it's flexible. Put the shaving cream on your leg and the just take the razor on your leg and glide it on your skin. For armpits be extra careful, it's very sensitive. Go slowly and make sure you're watching to get every angle.*

Ok...

1)Go to a chemist a buy a razor designed for women like a Gillete Venus or something. Also get some shaving foam for women.
2)Apply the shaving foam on the areas you want to shave, apply more around the knees and ankles.
3)Take your razor and starting at the ankles, shave up the leg firmly but not too hard. Rinse your razor.
4)Continue this process until all the shaving foam is gone and then towel the excess off.
5)Apply body lotion to the areas you shaved.
Hope I helped, happy shaving! ;) xxx

OK - I use Skintimate shave gel. It works really well and works up a great lather. To shave your legs, first wet your legs and the razor (I use Venus). Then, apply a good amount of shave gel onto one of your legs and lather it up. Then, slowly, put your razor against your leg and pull up (a shaving motion).

Shaving doesn't hurt at all, and if you do get cut, you probably won't even notice.

For your armpits, do the same steps. Your underarms are likely a little bit more sensitive than your legs, so be gentle!

Just tell me if you need anymore advice or if I was too confusing =/

Ok, start off with a fresh new clean razor. Then, apply warm water to your legs and make your legs wet..Next, apply shaving gel, soap, or conditioner to your legs. Next, wet the razor and start off at the bottom of your legs(be careful not to go over your ankles or you'll cut them!!)..and go upward lightly..not too hard. Then, when you reach your knees, be VERY careful!! Basically, just shave everywhere on your legs that have hair but be VERY careful on ALL areas!! And dont push hard!! Just push hard enuff to get the hair off!! .. Also, work very slowly and gently.

Now, for your armpits, just make sure their wet and apply soap, conditioner, or shaving gel, and work from the bottom up, and be very very extra careful on your armpits so you dont get a cut.

need any more help?? feel free to write me.

hope i helped:) lemme kno how it worked.

*aSh*

Ok, your afraid to cut yourself, hony the only way you would cut yourself is if you pushed down to hard. You can just lightly do it. If youd like, get the intuition that you can do in the shower...ive heard that it really works. If yourstill afraid, use any of the nair products. They work real great on the legs. Now about armpits, I do not know. Sorry!!

~Try to use shaving cream instead of soap because its much better. (I prefer the Satin Care shaving gel.)
~When you get to the curvey parts like behind your knee and such try to have your leg semi straight so you won't risk cutting yourself.
~And on legs shave from bottom to top. When you get around the knee area be a little causcious because it can be easy to cut if you press down too hard.
~And for the armpits, they're sensitive so be careful and shave from bottom to top with that too.
~And like the other girl said intuition razers are really nice. I have one and you don't have to worry about using shaving cream and having it wash off during the shower.
Hope I helped a bit. Good luck and hopefully you won't cut yourself as much as I did when I first started lol...

Well you put the shaving cream on your legs and just go from the bottom up NEVER sideways you can cut yourself. For your armpits just put shaving cream on and go up to down and up to down same NEVER sideways! Good luck!
