Shaving Tips for men to get the best shave

• It's best to avoid shaving the very first thing in the morning. If possible, let your skin wake up a while. This allows the "puffiness" you encounter from fluids collecting in your skin during the night to recede, thus allowing you to get a closer shave when you do begin the task. 
• Use an exfoliate such as a facial cleanser or scrub to eradicate dead skin cells & open up the pores of the skin to prepare it for a close shave. 
• Stubble should be wetted with warm or hot water before shaving. This swells the hair shaft allowing the blade to cut the hair, not your skin.
• Thoroughly massage shave cream into stubble. A vitamin & Aloe Vera based shave cream will provide a close soothing shave & protect against razor rashes & burns.
• Use a sharp blade. A dull blade is responsible for many shaving cuts as it drags over your face & catches your skin along with the hairs of your beard.
• Rinse the blade often in hot water when shaving & use slow short strokes. Take your time.
• Shaving with grain means shaving in the direction of how the hair grows on your face. It is always best to shave this way. Shaving against the grain can cause redness, rashes, razor burn & ingrown hairs, which are all painful.

HINT: Pulling the skin taut with your free h& & shave over this tight area. This makes the whiskers pull away from your skin, making it easier for the razor to grasp them.

SHAVE CREAM

AFTER SHAVING Tips

• Finish by rinsing off with cool water. It will close the skin pores.
• For cuts, use a moistened alum block to stop the bleeding.
• Apply a moisturizing aftershave lotion on the shaved areas. Avoid alcohol-based aftershaves lotions as they tend to dry the skin.
• In the last, use a moisturizer over the face & neck to keep the skin firm & supple. Or apply an after shave cream such as this one REJUVENATE.  Anti aging face cream to keep your skin moist & fresh with UV protection.

A few warnings:

• People with sensitive skin may wish to avoid shaving for the same reasons. Again, if you chose to shave, consider shaving cream made for sensitive skin & use a hypoallergenic moisturizer afterwards.
• Consider closely trimming your hair instead. It provides many of the benefits of shaving without all the risks!
• Shave after your shower. Your face is easier to shave when your stubble is softened by soap, hot water & residual shampoo & conditioner.
• Don't use hot water to rinse off your blades when you are shaving. Heat makes metal exp& & warp. Use Cold water & your blades will contract a bit making the blade tighter & sharper.
