It's probably because I'm so pasty pale and I have NEVER tanned in my life, but I have legs that look like chicken skin. In the picture, my legs are freshly shaved and smooth...they aren't bumpy. I didn't use lotion though. The only time I use lotion is in the winter. Could this be the solution, to use lotion on my legs every day? I sometimes feel ashamed to show my legs because they look like this. Please help, I'd really appreciate some advice.

Maybe because the picture sucks, or I'm just nitpicky. It looks like there's little red spots all over my legs, like raw chicken skin.

Could it be razor bump irritation? If so I think you should try Aloe Vera on your skin :)

My legs are like this too :/ I think its just your colouring, my natural hair colour is very similar to yours and I'm very pale, I think its just one of those things that come with being fair unfortunately!

I very ligh as well and I found tht exfoliating and shaving with a mans razor works really good. If the Dermadoctor is to expensive try Eucerin intensive repair, work great!
I had the same problem and since doing this routin I have sooooomth leg;)

It's because you are just cutting the tip off the hair follicle. The closer the shave the less noticeable it'll be, so exfoliating, using a sharp fresh razor every shave and moisturizing will help. But waxing will almost completely get rid of them since it's ripping the whole follicle out.

But honestly every pale girl gets them. Almost everybody I know that doesn't tan a lot has them, but they're not that noticeable unless you're super up close to them. Like even on myself, I can only see them if I'm in shorts and have my legs crossed or my knees up to my chest. So don't worry, and definitely don't be ashamed. :)

That's just where your hair comes from I have those too but to make them less noticeable but an "advanced therapy" lotion on eveyday
