These quick tips will help keep strawberry legs at bay

How we wish our legs to be smooth and silky after shaving them! But more often than not, ingrown hair play a spoilsport, making our legs look and feel bumpy.  These ingrown hair lead to strawberry legs, a condition characterised by black pores that look like the seeds on strawberries.

According to Healthline,  “The term comes from the dotted or pitted appearance that resembles the skin and seeds of a strawberry.” However, it is not a serious problem and with proper shaving techniques and aftercare, it can be prevented.

Also, as per Dr Dimple Jangda, an Ayurveda expert, it can be caused by inflamed hair follicles or dry skin.

Cucumber has calming and anti-inflammatory properties and rose water helps open clogged pores. “Mix rose water with the cucumber juice and apply on the legs for 15 minutes,” she suggested.

As per Dr Jangda, sea salt helps remove dead cells from the skin’s surface and restores mineral balance in the body. Make a thick paste of sea salt and coconut oil and scrub gently for 1-2 minutes then rinse with water.

Exfoliating with brown sugar and oil helps remove dead cells from the top layer of the skin and gets rid of any bacteria that might be present. It also eliminates the chances of ingrown hair.
