What are the tips for shaving?

Shaving is something men have to do every day. Men have vigorous hormones and their beards grow very fast. Generally, a man's beard will grow very long if he does not grow it in one day. Therefore, shaving is very important for men. Shaving seems to be relatively simple, but there is a lot of knowledge about shaving. When doing this, you must first understand it. In this way, shaving for men can be carried out smoothly.

The Art of Shaving:

1) Clean your skin

Before shaving, you should wash your face with a neutral soap. If there is dirt and dust on your face and beard, the razor may irritate the skin or slightly injure the skin during shaving, and the dirt may cause skin infection.

2) Soften the beard

After washing your face, cover your beard with a hot towel or apply beard softening cream 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.

Shaving cream is a special product for men's shaving. It comes in two types: foaming type and non-foaming type. Some can even heat up automatically. The method of using shaving cream is relatively simple. First, wet the beard with warm water, then squeeze a small amount of shaving cream and apply it evenly on the beard. After the foam appears or wait for a while, you can start shaving.

3) Proper shaving

When shaving, the skin should be tightened to reduce the resistance of the razor when it moves on the skin and prevent it from being broken. Especially for the elderly or thin people, the skin is prone to wrinkles, so the skin should be tightened to keep it elastic and have a certain support. The order of shaving is: from left to right, from top to bottom, first shave along the pores, then shave against the pores, and finally shave along the pores once to basically shave. Be careful not to shave here and there without any rules. After shaving, wipe off the foam with a hot towel or wash with warm water, and check whether there is any stubble.

4) Post-shaving care

After shaving, you should pay attention to skin care, because shaving will stimulate the skin to a certain extent and easily damage the sebum membrane. In order to protect the skin before the new sebum membrane is regenerated, you should apply a hot towel for a few minutes after shaving, and then you can choose to apply external products such as aftershave cream, aftershave water, after-shave honey, skin care oil or lotion. This can form a protective film to reduce the skin from external stimulation.

After understanding the knowledge of shaving, women should follow the above steps when helping men shave. However, when shaving men, they should also be careful not to overdo it each time, otherwise it will cause great damage to the skin. Men should pay attention to this during the shaving process.
