Ice bath before waxing?!
Question: I am a male road cyclist and nordic skier. In the summers as a cyclist I shave my legs along with all other cyclists at my level. The problem with shaving is that my hair tends to grow back as soon as its shaved. Part of muscle recovery that I have done on a regular basis is to take an ice bath. After an ice bath my legs become very numb for an extended period of time. Do you think that if I waxed my legs while they were in this state it would be better or worse.

To be honest, i dont think that would work because the pores have to be open for the hair to come out and makes it easier and less painful.
you can get somethings called a hot wax, where you heat the wax up in the microwave then you smear it on your leg put the strip on then 2 mins or so later rip it off and you will have smooth legs for longer!!!
hope that kinda helps
WOW iiM GUNNA TRY THAT!! HAHA X
like pain wise? It might help... I don't think it can hurt, so go for it.
