I can’t even put a razor to my face, but I appreciate the clean look and feel you get from the razor with a line up versus clippers or electric shavers. Perhaps you used something in the past that got you a close shave without a razor? Currently using my andis outliners. Adjusted them for a closer cut. Any plans for a 2018/2019 updated list for clippers to use? So far I still rock with the color pros you suggested awhile back.

I was really struggling with the rounded part of my beard, so your tips on using the top edge of the blade should help for the next time. Love me some witch hazel too man. Have you ever tired using cotton rounds to wipe the witch hazel off? it works really well and gets all the dirt and grime off of there while drying your face. a little squirt on a cotton round does the trick.

@ziv19944 жыл бұрын
the best way to avoid any shaving bumps is to control your stress levels. sometimes we are mentally stressed and we dont even notice that. Stess weakens your immune system which directly affects your skin. when you shave your face with razor, you reveal your pores to bacteria in the air. this bacteria creates those "razor bumps". normal immune system would fight this bacteria and prevent those razor bumps , but stressed people's immune system is weak. How Stress Affects Skin : Stress causes a chemical response in your body that makes skin more sensitive and reactive. It can also make it harder for skin problems to heal. Have you ever noticed that you break out more when you’re stressed? This is because stress causes your body to make hormones like cortisol, which tells glands in your skin to make more oil. Oily skin is more prone to acne and other skin problems. Stress can also: Make skin problems worse. For example, stress can aggravate psoriasis, rosacea, and eczema. It can also cause hives and other types of skin rashes and trigger a flare-up of fever blisters. as a stressed guy, i can tell you that what helps me with razor bumps is: first i would recommend you all to shave while you take shower it is much more hyginic and makes process easier i have shaving box kit with all the things needed for my shaving. i also have small mirror in my shower. 0) you must put gloves on to prevent any bacteria from your hands 1)apply hydrogen peroxide cream on face( you can buy it at any hair products store) i personally use 12% cream but you can also use 6% or 3% if your skin is sensitive. hydrogen peroxide kills all the bacteria on your skin so it won't get in to your pores when shave. 2)exfoliate your face with nizoral shampoo and face brush.(nizoral shampoo is good chemical exfoliator and can prevent skin buildup which prevents ingrown hairs). there are alternatives to nizoral shampoo like ketoconazole shampoo which does the same. (ask your doctor for this shampoo it needs perscription) 3)before shaving make sure your facial hair is the shortest you can get it. i personally shave with foil shaver like "Philips one blade" before shaving with a real razor ( any foil shaver would work fine). 2) put shaving gel on your face first, wait 3-4 minutes, after that apply hair conditioner also on the face. 2) take cup with boiled hot water and put your razor in it, it is always better to shave with hot razor, it cuts better and protects the razor. 3) after shaving blow cold air on your skin with a fan or hair dryer or with your towel, it closes the pores. 4) wait half hour for the skin to calm down and apply some talcum powder on skin or dry shampoo spray which gives same effect. (no need to wash it). 5) for prevention of razor bumps ask your doctor for "RETIN A/ RETINOL" cream 0.5% , this cream helps to prevent any bumps from showing on skin. i use retinol before going to sleep. ( i personaly use it when i feel the need, when i see reduction in razor bumps i stop with retinol for a while.) (note that while putting retinol your face should be clean of any products) and if you put it before going to sleep dont forget to rinse it in the morning) after i rinse it in the morning i put some talcum powder on face/ or spray dry shampoo on face for calming the skin. note:: if nothing helps i suggest you get laser hair removal to completely remove your facial hair or to thin it. thin hair is much less likely to cause any razor bumps.
