The shaving part I got, what do you recommend for that burning sensation after you shave. I do use a shaving gel, and good razors. Lotion is not helping at all, actually makes it worse. What should I try?
thanks. |

Hmmm, it could be technique - it sounds like you are giving yourself razor burn of some type, so maybe try not putting as much pressure on the razor, go slowly with fairly short strokes (don't try to go all of the way up your leg all at once) and shave regularly to get your skin and hair used to it. I do my legs everyday, mainly because my hair grows fairly fast and so I don't have to be as meticulous about not missing any bits. |

The short strokes provided better results with minor irritation. I to do it on a daily basis, for easy maintenance. I have been riding for many years and have shaved my legs just as long. Always had the irritation so I thought I'd finally get some input. Also, I only wear shorts when I ride do to what kind of reactions and looks I would get for having shaved legs. As far as a womans opinion, (non-rider) how do you think that they would react to the site. Do you think it would be a turn off? |

I ride and I shave my legs and so does the hubby. I certainly don't find it to be a turn off, but I am not a non-rider. I do think that there are women of all tastes out there, some (riders and non riders alike) like a very hairy guy and some like a clean shaven guy, so I wouldn't worry about it if I were you. |
