Is shaving legs good? please answer?

Question

i am 14, i never shaved my legs before or my mum, she said it will grow back faster and thicker is that true? should i start shaving or not? help me plz. thanks,

Answer 1

yeah shaving is very good, who cares if it grows back thick or quick since u will remove it anyway?! besides waxing , u have to wait till the hair is fully grown so u can wax it and u wouldnt wanna walk in public like that. just shave ur legs every 3 or 4 days very easy, quick and leaves it super smooth. just remember to exfoliate ur legs with a scrub b4 u shave and shave carefully and after shaving apply some lotion it will be supper smooth!

Answer 2

they do but then you just shave them again :)

smooth legs are the place to beee :D

Answer 3

no those things arent true it just apears they are because we are all surprisesd how fast body hair grows. your legs will be smoother longer if you run your razor under warm water first. also try nair or veet but you will have to wait longer in between.

Answer 4

As long as your mom says it is ok, go ahead. No harm. It makes you feel better. It may grow in a little thicker, but your supose to keep em shaved anyway. Be extremly careful, and use a good cream. I use hair conditioner to shave. I get a clean smooth shave, and my legs are ohhhhhhh so soft

Answer 5

once you start shaving you shouldn't really stop because then it looks ten times worce

14 is a good age to start   i started when i was 11

Answer 6

It does grow back (and it will seem faster/thicker) but that's actually a myth... The great thing about shaving your legs is that it exfoliates the skin every time you do it... The downside is how often you'll have to shave.

Answer 7

Yes thats true about shaving. Just like if you cut your hair it will grow faster.

Eventually your going to have to do it though so....ya

Answer 8

It all depends on your body, if you have never shaved before try a hair removal cream. If you can't. There are all sorts of products at the drugstore.

Answer 9

It will grow back ..but it will look normal it you decide not to continue shaving.  Shaved legs look good and feel good.  Try this for a silky feeling.  Mix some Epsom Salt with baby oil and scrub your legs and thighs with it BEFORE you shave...then shave normally with a shaving gel and new razor (I like to use my husband's..men's razors are the best!).  Your legs will feel like silk after wards.

Answer 10

The shorter hair (anywhere!) is, the faster it will grow back.

Shaving any part of your body is completely a personal decision. If you become uncomfortable with the way your legs are, ask your mother to consider letting you try shaving at least a small area on your leg. If there is no irritation, and the hair grows back normally, then you should be fine shaving. The hair may appear to grow back thicker, but it gets just as thick through puberty.  

Answer 11

hey  , ok I started shaving when I was 12 and I shave them whenever they get picky , but sometimes I dont have the time so I just leave it lol , but you cant even really notice unless you have dark hair , and if you do have dark hair I suggest the nair or veet wax strips or cream , they leave your legs smooth and s**y for like two weeks or something . And trust me once you start shaving your legs it will boost your self confidence you will feel a lot better , it doesnt grow back thicker at all , just the same as it was before , and it doesnt grow back that fast either , if you shave say on monday it will start to grow back maybe wednesday morning , just shave or use wax everytime you take a shower , its great !

Answer 12

I shave, im 14 too. Yes it grows back faster, thats why you shave everyday. Or instead of shavin how about Veet? or Nair? or mayvbe Wax! ( painful, but beauty pays to be painful! :)

Answer 13

It does grow back faster and thicker. But smooth legs is better than hairy legs.
