A Better Way to Shave

Shaving in itself is not rocket science. Let's be honest, there's nothing magical about shaving that should make some men get it right while others struggle with it, right? As much as we would love to agree with this, it is not entirely true. When it comes to shaving, there are techniques to be followed.  

There's No Need to Hurry!

If you're looking for a break out or some kind of skin irritation, then rush through a shave. When it comes to shaving, you have to be committed to the process; be a gentleman about it. Take time to prep the face for a shave. If you're late for an appointment, you can still have a good shave in the shower. If you don't have time to prep the face, then it means you don't have time to shave - just postpone it!



Give Your Fingers a Break

So it's totally understandable that you are used to applying the lather with your fingers. You may probably argue it was taught to you by your father and so on (we all know how generational teachings can be). Now it's time to give your fingers their long due break. Shaving brushes were designed for s purpose. It does only fair you allow them do their 'one job'.

Hot or Cold


Dermatologists always advise shaving just after a shower or in it. This is because your skin needs to be moist and warm before shaving. This is why your local barber places a warm towel on your face before shaving. If you didn't know why, the least you should have done was to ask him. After shaving, cold water is best to rinse the face. It helps reduce inflammation.
