Try shaving your legs left often. Also, wait until the end of you shower to shave. The hair is a little softer and you should feel less irritation. When you shave try not to use water that is too hot. Hot water dries out your skin and makes you more sensitive to shaving.

Don't shave dry. Use only tempid water when shaving. After your done, rub your legs with Vaseline and re-apply as needed. Sometime in the winter or dry months, the front of your legs are sensitive and Vaseline has helped me.

When you uses the blade for shave, note that your skin boils like it becomes hot. Apply antiseptic cream on it after shaving.
