After I shave my legs there are tiny dark dots where I can still see where the hair is. What can I do to prevent this from happening?

Shave in a tub of very warm water in a warm bathroom and use some kind of lotion. You may be shaving goose bumps. Shaving in very warm water gives you the closest shave with the fewest problems.

Use Nair it will get in the pores deeper than you could shave. Or Have them Waxed.

You know i still have this problem...i was told by my dermatologist to use a Sensitive skin lotion, and sensitive skin shave gel, Also if your very pale (like me) then i would recommend getting a light tan, it will really help with it. I still have the problem but its going away slowly

Yeah i agree with Puppylover, Definatly wax it if it bothers you that bad..its just your hair showing through cause you have dark hair, waxing is the only thing that could rip all that out by the folicle. GOod Luck!!!

Get them waxed.

New razor blade - the one you are using is blunt.

Wax. What you're seeing are the root hairs that you can't shave.

exfoliate before shaving to get rid of dead skin and debris. make sure razor is sharp, after shaving moisturise when necessary. dry skin can cause tiny ingrown hair.

You're going to have to wax. That's your hair showing through the skin. I have the same problem, assuming that you're talking about what I think you're talking about. If you don't want to do that, getting a tan can help camouflage it a bit. (Use a fake tanner or the real sun. Never a tanning bed or booth!)
