I recently got the Shick Hydro Silk razor in the package of shaving cream. After using it a couple times I realized it makes my legs super itchy, red, and hot. It makes my legs very soft, but I can't take the itching! What could be the cause of this? I'm thinking I need to switch to a razor for sensitive skin. Any reccomendations or tips would be greatly appreciated!

This my sound crazy but I use hair condisher and men's razors I use Gillette 5  blade.

I have very sensitive skin, and like Niki I've actually only had luck by using men's razors. Also make sure your legs are well moisturized as well, as dryness can cause that itchiness and redness.

I've read the more blades a razor has the more it'll cause issues.
For sensitive skin it's better to use a razor with one or two blades
