This question depends on your preferences and the type of relaxation you plan to experience. If you feel comfortable with hair on your legs, and it does not hinder your enjoyment of the massage therapist’s touch, then, in most cases, having hair on your legs is not a problem. Massage therapists typically respect clients’ personal preferences. However, if you plan to get a cosmetic massage or a massage involving the use of oils or lotions, shaving is usually recommended. Smooth skin provides better contact and allows for better absorption of oils.
