Wrap packing tape round you legs, then unwrap. It has to be quicker.macca1234 said:2 hours, no kidding. I had really wooly legs...about 2-3cm and i used a double blade razor, very boring hehehe.
It's best done by someone else. A girlfriend would be good here. DON'T go to a massage parlour.macca1234 said:any tips on massaging. just rub youre legs or is there a skill to it?

Why not? Massage therapists are very helpful, but...Don Shipp said:DON'T go to a massage parlour.

You can buy books on the subject, also attend classes and learn how, and probably a few intenet sites will be able to give you instructions.
Hey Macca! Exfolliating, ie, using a synthetic loofah washclothe before you shave helps prevent ingrown hair problem. Also, don't shave up to your crotch...more ingrown probs. Use clean, new blades and shave cream or liquid soap when you do shave. Macca, if you do get rubs, always shave after your rub, not before....before will make the massage a cause for ingrowns again. If you don't have the luxury of a team Soigneur giving you a massage every day, and can only afford one rub every other week , for example, get it after your most difficult training day, because typically you would go easier the next day anyway and the massage will help increase your recovery rate. Good Luck Macca!
