Exfoliate before.

Your skin will be smoother before you shave and if you exfoliate afterwards, it can cause irritation and a burning sensation.

What is the purplish pimple you have on your leg?

Does it matter if you don't shave your legs before a spray tan?

You can get a spray tan without shaving your legs beforehand. It is recommended that you shave first, because if you shave afterwards you will exfoliate the layer of skin that has the tan on it. The tan will not last as long or stay as even.


I have ingrowing hair on my legs and hands. I also have black knees and I am on the fair side. When I wear skirts I become really embarrassed. Please help me?

i have never heard of ingrowing hairs on the hand before. for the arms and legs though..exfoliate. exfoliate 3 or 4 times a week especially before shaving. this will remove any dead skin that is preventing the hair from growing through. exfoliate around your knees carefully too. you can buy great exfoliators from any chemist, or salt scrubs. i add some sugar to mine to make extra scrub to remove more. good luck!

Clean Your Skin Before A Salon?

When you go to a sin care salon, you need to make sure you have clean skin before you arrive. The cleaner your skin is, the less likely it is that there will be any irritation. Don't shave the day you go to the salon. Shave at least one day before you go so the skin is not as irritated from razors and shaving creams. Exfoliate the skin as much as possible before you to the salon so all of the excess dirt is gone.


How do you get rid of acne or raised spots on your genital area?

This is very likely a reaction to shaving. Changing to a milder shaving soap, a better shaving system and thourough rinsing before and after will reduce this reaction. A skin conditioner applied after shaving will also help. Shaving in the direction of the hair not against it will reduce the damage to the surrounding skin.
