Ok, so I wax my legs regularly with Veet Ready-to-use wax strips (the pink one! sorry I don't know its actual name -w-) but the problem is that after waxing I get these spots on my legs(picture *poorly taken*)! why and what are they? shall I stop waxing? or stop using this wax? how can I make them dissappear? HALP!??____?

Do you have sensitive skin? Maybe it's too harsh for your skin?

Instead?

You shouldn't use the wax strips. After more and more use the dots will stay.

Probably just where the hair roots come out - this is normal.

I get those too, but I shave. I exfoliate and they slowly fade away.

Those are your hair follicles. Try bathing in warm water and then exfoliate. I have these all over too and this got some of them faded. Search how to get rid if hair follicles dots on google and I'm sure you'll find a solution more effective :)
Hope this helped :)

I had the same. after waxing when you take showers or bath scrub your legs softly with a shower peeling. like this. and doin ever time again. so your skin stays great.

It's natural in a beauty therapist and pretty much everyone I wax gets the same thing it will soon fade its nothing to worry about just don't apply anything to the legs unless it's tea tree cream ( tea tree is antibacterial) the pores on your legs are open if you apply anything else or have a hot bath you may get ingrown hairs
