Smooth legs

    Basically have a wedding in a few weeks and need smooth legs.

    Dont want to wax - as would probably have to shave them again afterwards and I am not going to maintain the waxing

    Can shave anyways as always, no matter how expensive the razor/foam/soap is, I always come out in a rash.

    So I was thinking of cream. If I were to use it, what is the regrowth like with them? How long are results expected until?

    Thanks!

    The creams are ****. Don't mind all the advertising. I don't work as a beautician but am trained as one. Waxing is the only way to go. As long as your hairgrowth is at the right stage, then your legs should stay smooth for at least three weeks before you get any regrowth at all.

    I don't see why it matters whether or not you will ever shave or wax again - no matter what you use, you will always have to do something to them a few weeks later.

    NB - get waxed at least two days before the event in case your legs are a bit red afterwards (it's normal for them to have little red pinprick marks for up to 24 hours afterwards)

    If your legs are that sensitive to shaving why do you think they'd react any better if you were to put chemicals that melts hair on to them?

    I used to use the creams and found the results favourable. After a while though my legs began having an awful reaction to the cream so I stopped using it. I now wax religiously and have no idea why it took me so long to do it. (funds were probably a factor there :))

    I'd also suggest waxing but, as my waxist told me, the first time i went the result wouldn't be all that smooth. This is because hair grows in three different stages and some of the hairs would be too short to catch. After keeping it up though the hair is finer and the result is very smooth.
