Step 1.
Begin by showering or bathing in hot water.

While still in the shower or tub, lather up your legs with shaving cream.
Step 3.
Using a razor with a sharp, clean blade, start at the top of your foot and pull gently up
the entire length of your leg in one smooth stroke.
To avoid nicks or cuts around your ankle, flex your heel to stretch the skin around
the bone when you shave.

Pull sections of leg skin straight and taut with one hand, and use the razor with the
other.
Shave against the direction your hair grows.
Don’t put too much pressure on your razor, because this can cause razor burn and skin
irritations.
