7. Too Much Heat

Shaving in a hot bubble bath may seem like a smart use of time, but hot water will make your skin puff up (just like a hot day out can make your hands and feet swell up). If you wait until after you’ve toweled off and cooled down to shave your legs, you’re bound to get a closer shave. If you can, plan your shaves in the evening, when your skin is at its most relaxed; your limbs also tend to swell slightly during the night, which means less of each hair is exposed when you take up the razor in the shower.
