How do you get blackheads off your legs?

I have nice legs, but no thanks to my dad they are hairy. I dont let the hair grow, i have been shaving them since forever. I now use nair but I get black marks all over my legs. I guess they are a combo of ingrown hairs and blackheads does anyone have any suggestions that they know will work or a product I can buy .How do you get blackheads off your legs?
';How to prevent ingrown hairs





The best way to fight a pattern on ingrown hairs is to adopt a preventative strategy that minimizes the causal factors. Begin building your strategy by adopting the following routine, then after two weeks you鈥檒l be able to see what is working and what isn鈥檛, and you can begin adapting it to better fit you individually. There are very few one-size-fits-all health remedies.





1. Keep your skin moist and soft


If you suffer from dry skin, start using a moisturizer every day after bathing. This will not only keep your skin soft but will soften up the growing hair, which can keep it from boring into the skin.





2. Exfoliate


Use a gentile exfoliant every day to remove built up dead skin cells that can clog the surface of your skin and trap hair, causing it to become ingrown. Exfoliating pads, loofahs, and mild scrubs work well. Look for cleansers that contain Salicylic acid.





3. Hair removal


Consider changing your method of hair removal. Each person can tolerate certain approaches better than others. If you shave, try waxing, plucking, or using a cream or powder that will dissolve exposed hair. Electric shavers give mixed results - you either love them or hate them. See which works best for you.





Hair removal prep


Regardless of your chosen methods of removal, always prepare your skin well. Take a towel and soak it with the hottest tap-water you can get, then apply the wet towel to your skin for a few minutes before the shave begins. This will soften your skin, open your pores, soften your hair and cause it to stand straighter and higher. Hair removal after a long hot bath or shower also works.





Shaving


You鈥檝e no doubt read or been told to shave with the grain, not stretch the skin, and use single blade razors. The purpose of such advice it to keep the tip of the hair at or above skin level. That鈥檚 fine for preventing ingrown hairs, but it may defeat the purpose of shaving if you desire a close shave. If after many attempts you鈥檙e still unable to stop ingrown hairs then consider it a possible trade off - either have ingrown hairs, or a not-so-close shave.';How do you get blackheads off your legs?
Ah! I have the same problem too and I've done some research. It's not really blackheads but if you see 'plugs' in your pores, they're actually extra protein your body gives off that clutters dead skin cells. This usually results to ingrown hair ): You can gently squeeze them out:

Those are likely not blackheads, but the root of the hair that is under the skin. Nair cannot get to the hair roots and if you have a dark hairs you may still see the roots through the skin. To deal with it i would advise to switch to waxing.
Nair has tons of chemicals in it. I suggest you use a thick soap to shave your legs. If it were a black head, I would pop it out like a pimple... =D
Exfoliate first and shave or Nair your legs last. I'm thinking that should help. There should be hot water involved in there before the Nair part so that your pores and folicals will open up before you remove the hair.
get a match light it then put it on each blackhead then it will burn off i did it the other day and it worked. do it i'm positive!
well you can either try to pop it yourself with your finger nails if you have them or find medicine to put on it . hope that i could help you!
Nair is terrible, so many chemicals. Just use a good razor and creme every day.
have never heard of blackheads on legs





your pores are probably r eally clogged
Blackheads on your legs? SURELY not. Ingrown hairs are more likely. I would see a dermatologist.
Get a wax......seriously
trust me just shave it plau nair will sooner or later leave red bumps ALL OVER YOUR LEGS!! i get them on my arms :(
Tell him to step off.
u should use nair it works
i dunno but, wear jeans to hide it until u find a product tho
