Always use a clean sharp razor. Disposable razors are available to ensure that you always have a clean sharp blade. Single blades work just as well (if not better) than the multiple bladed razors. If shaving legs or underarms use a razor designed for women as they are shaped better for the task than a man’s razor.- Soften hair with plenty of warm water. If you are shaving your body or legs it is best to do this in the bath or shower and to use plenty of soap so that the razor glides over the skin. You can even shave your face in the shower if you have a mirror handy. In any case use warm water and shaving gel or cream on your face. Use the recommended amount of product and massage it in for best effect.
- Shave slowly in the same direction as the hair to avoid cuts and ingrown hairs. Men with stubborn facial hair can shave in the opposite direction after the first couple of passes over the skin to get the smoothest shave.
- Remove hair from the razor often while shaving by rinsing in water
- Pat dry with a soft towel. Don’t rub.
- Moisturize after shaving to soothe the skin and avoid harsh lotions (such as aftershave or perfume) which can sting newly-shaven skin
