What age do you have to shave your legs?

As a skincare expert with a focus on personal grooming, I can provide some guidance on the topic of leg shaving. There is no specific age at which someone must shave their legs; it's a personal choice that depends on individual preferences, cultural norms, and physical development. However, it's important to ensure that whoever is shaving, particularly young individuals, is aware of and practices good shaving techniques to minimize the risk of injury and infection. When considering when to start shaving, it's not about age but rather about the individual's readiness and the presence of hair that they wish to remove. If a young person is physically mature enough to have noticeable leg hair and feels self-conscious about it, they might choose to shave. It's crucial that they are taught how to shave properly to avoid cuts and other skin issues. Using the information provided, it seems that waiting a little longer might be a better option, but if a tween or teen between the ages of 12 to 14 is ready to shave, they should be taught good shaving technique to avoid injuries. Girls at this age are more likely to have the maturity to handle a razor safely.

Waiting a little longer may be the better option, but good shaving technique should be taught before a tween or teen (12-14 years old) is given a razor. Girls this age will more likely have the maturity to avoid cutting skin (which can lead to bleeding and infection) when shaving.
