Tips for shaving with a knee injury?

[Anonymous]

For anyone who's ever dealt with a bum knee and tried to shave you know its a pain in the ass. Anyone have any tips for shaving your bad leg (and other things lol) when you have limited mobility? I just kinda feel disgusting not being able to shave and I'm too poor at the moment to be able to pay to get a wax right now.

I had knee surgery about 6 years ago. is it just that you can't shave your leg?
I normally took baths so not to risk slipping and hurting myself again in the shower. that way I sat and and shaved it. If you had surgery, I kind of had to go around the scars for a few months, now I can easily shave over them.

My problem is that I'm still healing from an injury so I can't really bend my knee and I have a short torso so as far as sitting and shaving it's very difficult to reach lol.

yea that does make it hard, you kind of just have to figure it out. are you flexible at all? you can lift your leg up straight and might be able to reach the whole thing

Would something like Nair work? That way you could put it on and then just wipe or rinse it off your legs.
