Bumping up this topic, because I have the same issue!

I'm eighteen and have hated showing my legs in public for as long as I can remember.  I hate wearing short dresses without having pantyhose underneath...and I never wear shorts or capris, even though my mom continues to buy them for me.  I've worn jeans or long khaki pants almost every time I go up the street since before adolescence hit.

I have really dry lower legs, so when I shave them, I get a slight rash, too.  But the dry skin really makes them look bad.  Not to mention the fact that they are SO PALE in comparison to the rest of my body, specifically because I never allow them to see the sunlight!  I'm tired of spending all summer long not being able to show my legs!

Not really my subject and I wouldn't normally suggest this dramatic stuff, but have you cinsiderated lazer? Seems nothing else works for you and that you really struggles with it. There is creams that should make hair grow slower, but guess you have allready tried that.
