Cleanse and exfoliate your legs before shaving. Use a loofah, exfoliating glove or shower pouf on dry skin first to get rid of dead skin cells. Start at your ankles and rub your skin in a light, circular motion.
Work your way up your legs. When you’re finished, cleanse your legs with an exfoliating body scrub.

Lubricate your legs before shaving. Rinse them with warm water, then apply a shaving gel or shaving cream. This softens the skin and hair so that shaving removes the hair easily, with less chance of ingrown hairs or shaving irritation.

Shave your legs with the direction of hair growth, not against it. Rinse with cold water to close your pores when finished shaving
