I am 15 and an african american female. It's really hot in NYC now. (where i live) and i want to wear shorts and skirts but im a little insecure about my legs. my skin color is kind of light but not too light and not dark just in between. anyways my legs has these tiny brown spots all over them and they annoy me soo much. i've had them for the longest maybe for about 3 or 4 years. i've shaved my legs before with a razor could that be why i have these tiny brown spots. In the tiny spots is hair. could it be hair bumps?? do they go away?? Dont mean to gross you out if i did. they dont look disgusting or anything but i really dont want them on my legs. does anybody have a clue what it could be or knows anything about it?? thanx in advance

caramella answered Wednesday August 2 2006, 12:12 am: Yeah i know exactly what they are.Using a razor is the worst thing ever,it doesnt shave and take out your hair from its roots so it stays looking as hair bumps.To get rid of that quit using a razor and wax instead...youll get rid of them completly.
