Hi.
My leg hair is really thick and noticeable, its unreal. What are the best methods of thining it out so it’s not so bad. I don’t really want to get rid of it all, just some. I’ve tried trimming but it just doesn’t work well.
Anyone know of any other methods please inform me <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Electrolysis is the only hair removal method that is capable of thinning out your leg hair.
Hi jimmyh
Repeated lasor treatment might help to make the hair lighter and finer. Electrolysis will thin the hair but nevertheless the remaining hairs will still be long and coarse, so you will still need to trim. I went through a long period trying the same sort of thing until I just shaved it all off. maybe try it for a while - you might be surprised at how good it feels.

if you arn’t looking for a permanent solution run some clippers over your legs with a number 1 or two gaurd on them. It will make the hair appear thinner and only takes a few min.
In my experience using clippers as suggested will give you the look you want, but will feel lousy. The short hairs are very stiff, and your legs will feel stubbly. Plus, if you clip the hairs short, it will look like you shave, so you may as well shave altogether.
Hi Jimmyh
I agree with Veinlover. Shave it off and try it for a while. Don’t just shave once a week or so as this will result in red bumps and ingrown hairs. Try a quick buzz with an electric razor every day after shaving your face. It will take some time for your legs to get used to shaving, but no longer than 2 weeks if you do this daily. Trimming is at best a poor compromise. The comfort you will feel after shaving your legs will do all the talking you need.
