To use a lady shaver on your legs, hold the handle and place the foil head of the shaver against your skin. Move the shaver smoothly across your skin to remove unwanted hair.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
-
Preparation (Optional but Recommended):
- Ensure your legs are clean and dry for optimal results. You can shave in the shower or bath, but make sure your legs aren't excessively wet as this can make it harder for the shaver to catch the hairs.
- Exfoliating beforehand can help remove dead skin cells and prevent ingrown hairs.
-
Holding the Shaver:
- Grip the lady shaver's handle comfortably in your hand.
-
Positioning the Shaver:
- Place the foil head (the part with the mesh screen) flat against your skin.
- Maintain light pressure. Avoid pressing too hard, as this can cause irritation.
-
Shaving Technique:
- Move the shaver in a smooth, gliding motion against the direction of hair growth. This helps to lift the hairs for a closer shave.
- For longer hairs, you might need to go over the area a few times.
- Rinse the shaver head periodically during the process to remove accumulated hair.
-
Areas to Pay Attention To:
- Around the knees and ankles, stretch the skin taut to ensure even contact with the shaver head.
- Take your time and be careful to avoid nicks or cuts.
-
After Shaving:
- Rinse your legs with cool water.
- Pat your skin dry gently.
- Apply a moisturizing lotion or cream to soothe the skin and prevent dryness.
-
Cleaning the Shaver:
- After each use, clean the shaver head according to the manufacturer's instructions. This usually involves rinsing it under water and allowing it to air dry. Some shavers also come with a small brush for removing hair from the blades. Regularly cleaning the shaver will help to maintain its performance and hygiene.
