I shave my legs very often, also in winter, because I do Rythmic Gymanstics and I have to wear Shorts. But I'm really tired of shaving my legs every 2 days. I heared waxing helps and lasts longer but some people react allergic to it, and I'm scared, that I will too. What should I do?

Hair does still grow back after waxing but usually takes up to 2 weeks to grow back. If you are afraid of being allergic there are many sensitive skin waxing strips and wax that you can use. Research what to use that would be best for you and what's less likely to break you out. If your too nervous just stick to shaving! EOS shaving cream makes your legs feel soft for a much longer time than any other shaving product I've ever used! A good alternative is baby oil, it will help with getting cut and also leave your legs super smooth for much longer :)

Shaving is quicker, however you have to do it regularly. Waxing means your hair goes away longer but you have to leave your to grow enough to be able to wax again, would you be ok with leaving your to grow long enough to be waxed?

Would you put the babyoil on before getting in the shower/bath?

Shaving is so fast but your hair grows back as fast too. Waxing hurts but it last longer.

You could use an electric razor, it takes less time but leaves your legs a little prickly. You can't tell enless you touch it though.

If you wax the hair grows back slower and there isn't as much but also it is very messy, it can be painful and pricey, and there is a possibility of ingrown hairs! But with shaving its quick and cheap but the hair grows back quickly and it tends to dry out your skin and irritate it!

Definitely waxing. Everytime I shave, it grows back the next day. Waxing is definitely worth it :)

First I waxed, but now I do it with an epilator. It's super easy, the hair is really thin, fine, when it grows back, so you won't be embarresed in the time in between.

Waxing last longer and stays for atleast 2 weeks, and shaving is fast but you have to do it a lot.
