My advice: Don't shave and grow a jesus beard. Chicks dig jesus.



Or you could just buy one of those mach 3 vibrators and shave with those.

Straight razor gives the best shave.

dont shave the grain regularly, it may shave closer but it will create a lot of skin problems and ingrown hairs. i would use an electronic razor but they dont shave as close.

I usually have to shave twice a day. I have been shaving for 16 years and never heard of "preshave". All I do is while I am in the shower, put on shaving cream and shave with my razor (A non-vibrating Mach III). Don't have any shaving "rituals" or need excessive crap to go along with it. I hate electric razors just because they don't get that close.

Shaving right after you take a shower is teh best time for it. I used to use a mach 3, but it was too close of a shave, I like a tiny bit of stubble, so I switched to some cheap plastic razors. Use geleete sensitive skin stuff or something like that.

I dont really see a point to all that pre-shave after shave crap. All I use is a little mousturizer in the winter when my face might dry up a bit.

I usually wash my face first (cuz i usually shave in the shower). then use whatever shaving cream/gel I have. I havent found any particular kind/brand that works better or worse than any other. I use a Schick Quattro (the Mach 3 is a little better I think, mainly cuz i would use the razors too long and the quattro would irritate my skin more), and go against the grain. I then use some Gillette gel aftershave, makes my face nice n cool

I've been using one of those sensor Mach 3's for a year now, and I like it a lot. Only replaced the battery once.. While I think the whole vibrating thing is just a marketing ploy, its a damn good shave.

If you've really got a lot of whiskers going on, shave with the grain first, then clean up going against it. With my razor, I tilt it so its almost parallel to my face sometimes
