Leg shaving is the practice of removing leg hair by shaving the hair off using a razor or electric shaver. In addition, some people remove leg hair using waxing, sugaring, depilatories, epilators or other depilation devices, or lasers, but shaving remains the least expensive method. It is a very common practice among women in the western world, and is also done by some men, especially bodybuilders, cyclists, swimmers and some runners. ==Women== In Western countries, the majority of women engage in leg shaving, doing so largely for aesthetic reasons. This practice has developed especially since the early 20th century, around the time of the First World War, as hemlines on women's dresses have become shorter and women's swimsuits have become more revealing, displaying all of a woman's legs. Some women may only shave the hair below the knee – depending on the length of dress styles in fashion – while others shave the entire leg.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.depilatory.com/core/twentieth.html )〕 The frequency of shaving also varies, with some women shaving their legs every day, and others shaving only at the start of summer, in anticipation of the wearing of a swimsuit. Special razors, different in shape from those used by men for face-shaving, are often used by women. Advertising campaigns also promote hair-removal products, such as depilatories and waxing kits. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「leg shaving」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
