Your walkin’ sticks say a lot about you, especially if you are not good with a razor. But in this article you will find out how to make your legs make ZZ Top freak.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Lotion with Copper
  • Aveeno Oatmeal Shave Cream
  • Rough Sponge
  • L’Oreal Gradual Tan lotion
  • Sharp 3- or 4-Blade Razors
  • Bathtub
  • Irish Oatmeal
  1. Step 1

    Get your bathtub ready; you want to have warm water in your tub. When you’re getting the water in the tub, dump about a handful of Irish oatmeal in the tub and swirl around.

  2. Step 2

    After your bath is ready, it’s time to soak your legs. Soak them for about 5 to 10 minutes in your Irish oatmeal bath. This will make your legs smooth and the hair less coarse and easier to remove.

  3. Step 3

    After your soak, it’s time to shave. Use a very thick shaving cream. My favorite is Aveeno Oatmeal Shave Cream; I get the sensitive skin one. Smooth on the shaving cream and shave.

  4. Step 4

    When you shave, go slowly. The reason why nicks happen is you start going fast. Take is slowly.

  5. Step 5

    After the legs have been shaved, take your rough sponge to get rid of dry skin. Let your legs soak for another 5 to 10 minutes in your bath. This will help your legs recover from having a blade dragged across them.

  6. Step 6

    Get out of the tub and pat your legs dry.

  7. Step 7

    Let’s moisturize! Take your lotion with copper in it and smooth is on. Rub it in deep into your legs. Then take your L’Oreal Gradual Tan lotion and do the same thing. This will give your legs a glow.

  8. Step 8

    You are ready for a ZZ Top video! Go on and wear that dress with no pantyhose; your legs are ready.

Tips & Warnings
  • If you have scars, don’t be afraid to put make-up on your legs to cover it up. Just make sure you use a waterproof cover-up.
