Members with Parkinson's and other conditions shared creative solutions for the challenge of shaving legs safely, with many finding that switching away from traditional razors made a big difference. Several members recommended the Finishing Touch Flawless Nu Razor, a rechargeable electric shaver that works without water or lotion and is said to never cut the skin, while others swore by Nair hair removal cream as a safer, hands-free option. A recurring theme was grace and humor around the struggle, with many members choosing to skip shaving altogether during colder months or asking a partner or family member for help on harder days.

I use Nair hair removal cream. You just rub it on and leave for 10 minutes. Then you wipe it off with a wet cloth.
