A guide for all the gorgeous men out there to a shave free of irritation and rashes. We bring you 5 Tippytricks from leading barbers and dermatologists.
1 CLEANSE THOROUGHLY Before turning your shavers on, cleanse thoroughly with a face wash and lukewarm water. Avoid hot water as it could lead to irritation and skin to become dry and blood vessels to crack.
2 SHAVE FIRST THING WHILE WAKING UP? NO Never shave first thing while waking up in the morning. Reason- Your face is puffy and more prone to nicks and cuts. So cool down and give atleast 10 minutes to your skin to settle down.
3 PRESS, NO PUSH Most men believe that if they press harder, they will get a closer shave. Trust me, thats not true. Modern razors work with relatively less pressure so to avoid irritation dont push but press.
4 SHAVE WITH THE GRAIN Go with the flow while shaving. If you have thicker hair on your cheekbones then shave by gliding smoothly. Never go against the grain while shaving as this
cause follicle damage.
5 DROP THE AFTERSHAVE Aftershave increases irritation and dries out your skin because it has high alcohol content. Instead, use a balm or a moisturizer.
