Today, I ran a hand down my freshly shaven leg to appreciate the smoothness, only to come up with a hand covered in blood. FML

Sounds like you need a better rasor

I'll never understand how little razor cuts can bleed so much. Sorry, OP, the stinging that accompanies the blood isn't fun either.

Also, if you're anemic, see a Doctor!

So annoying how those little cuts don't seem to start bleeding until you're done. I generally only shave my legs a few times a year, can't be arsed to keep it up, and always end up with a few little cuts around my ankles or knees that I don't notice until the blood drips onto the floor.

maybe wax instead? less chance of cutting yourself

Know the feeling! Its like a horror scene every bloody time.

Having a styptic pencil close at hand when shaving is really useful tool for dealing with cuts. Rubbing the styptic pencil along the cut stops the bleeding instantly. The main ingredient speeds clotting. After the bleeding stops using Neosporin can help the cuts heal faster. You can usually get both at a local pharmacy if you live in the USA.

I HAVE EXPERIENCED THAT! I enjoy rubbing my legs after i shave , it feels amazing even though my legs like like Edward Scissorhands was running his hands down my legs.

i'm surprised that no one's made a comment about how at least it wasn't her lady bits that got nicked cause as bad as a cut on the leg is lady bit cuts are so much worse.

Ran your hand down your fleshly* shaven leg.

Did anyone else imagine the scene from Carrie? Definitely some major differences for sure, but that was the first thing that came to my mind!

Don't suppose you've heard of tampons?
