How to Get Rid of Strawberry Legs
2. What Causes Strawberry Legs?
Strawberry legs are most often the result of irritation of hair follicles. Known as folliculitis, this irritation can cause the oils in your pores to dry out, leaving behind the dark-looking pore. Ingrown hairs and other irritations caused by enlarged pores may also lead to a speckled pattern of dark spots.
This skin issue often shows up shortly after a person shaves. Shaving can be an irritation to the skin and strawberry legs can be very similar to razor burn. Other causes can be pores that get clogged or irritated by rubbing again pants or by simply having a predisposition for being enlarged and drying out.
