    Give shaving another try, but here are a few hints:

    -Use a good, sharp razor. Stay away from the cheapies. I love the men's mach 5.
    -Take good care of said razor. Don't store it in the shower, and, after you use it, rinse it with some rubbing alcohol to prevent tiny rust pits.
    - Get a good shave gel. Forget the cheap foam- go for something like Aveeno. It's gender-neutral, too.
    -Shave last thing when you're in the shower. Be sure you've soaped & cleaned your legs well. This will give you a clean shaving surface and allow for the water to soften up the hair
    -When you shave, only take a couple of strokes before you rinse your razor.
    -Don't shave areas that get a lot of rubbing immediately before said rubbing occurs (in other words, don't shave something like your butt immediately before you are gonna sit on your bike)
    - If this fails, try shaving down (with the hair) instead of up (against the hair). It won't be as close, but you've got less chance for razor burn.

    P.S. Feel free to continue upwards. Hairless men are nice.
