Trousers/ jeans / dark tights. T-shirt or t-shirt arm length blouses.

Shaving while you have any kind of skin problems is just going to exacerbated it, give you a skin chance to heal properly . Sod what anybody thinks you're the one who's got deal with a pain and the aftermath

It comes from the voice of experience many years when I was about 14 I ago I burnt my calf ( fell backwards over a 2 bar electric fire ) fortunately the burn was not to bad but it did blister so I could not shave it was a hot summer so I wore shorts in the hope that air getting to the burn would help. My NDN who was a generation older than me saw me it the garden and said only slobs and common woman don't shave , my dad who was out of sight in the shed went nuts at her .
I was really upset , dad sat me down and said only ever ware what you are comfortable in , never act , dress or change your attitude just to make other people happy .
That was over 30 years ago but I heard it like he was stood next to me when I read your post .
