What should you pay attention to when shaving for the first time?

Shaving is also a way of grooming, but there are many things to pay attention to when shaving for the first time. As for what to pay attention to when shaving for the first time, you mainly need to pay attention to the shaving steps and the choice of razor to avoid irritating the skin.

1. Apply hot towel to face for 1 minute:

Hot water can soften the beard and expand the pores, making it easier to shave. So before shaving, you can apply a hot towel to the beard to soften it. After a while, apply shaving cream or soap to facilitate the blade to cut the beard and reduce irritation to the skin.

2. Apply shaving foam for 1 minute:

You can use a press-type shaving foam product, which saves the time of using your hands to make foam. Shaving foam has the function of lubricating and softening the roots of shaving hair.

3. 1 minute shaving:

Before shaving, you should understand the direction of the beard texture. According to the different growth directions of facial beard, shave from left to right, from top to bottom, first along the pores, then against the pores. The ideal angle between the skin and the razor is about 26 degrees, and try to reduce backscratching as much as possible. After shaving, wash your face with warm water and then rinse with cool water. Alternating hot and cold water can keep the skin tight and shrink pores. Finally, apply some lotion to soothe your skin and reduce stinging.

4. Razor selection

If you have allergic skin, you can choose an electric shaver. This razor is relatively safe and less irritating to the skin, but you must pay attention to regular cleaning to avoid excessive accumulation of beard in the electric shaver. Male friends who are shaving for the first time can buy a razor to try it out, but you will know whether it is suitable for you after trying it for a few days. If it is a blade razor, you must prepare soap, hot towels, shaving cream, etc. If it is an electric shaver, you must ensure that the skin is dry so that shaving is not difficult.
