Razor Shave
How do I get a close shave and not get razor burn/bumbs?
In the last year my peach-fuzz became facial-hair. It's that akward kind thats not full enough to be rugged but just long enough to be ratty. I tried to shave a few weeks ago and (egad!!!) I got some gnarley razor burn. I shaved after a hot shower, used a clean mach 5 razor, colgate shaving cream, didnt' have after-shave so I subbed rubbing alchol but still got burned. By know the Bumps have cleared up and I'm ready to have another go at it but I need some good advice about this, I really dont razor bumps again.
Oh, and I should probibly mention I'm black and to my knowlege dark-skinned guys especially of african descent Get burns and bumps very easily so bear that in mind.
After thought:
I've noticed black actors never have razor bumps, WHAT IS THIER SECRET!
You need to soak your face in warm water first to make the hair softer. Then use a good lubricating shave cream. Shave WITH the hair direction, not against.
Then you need to make sure you moisturise after. You can get nice manly smelling moisturisers nowdays.
Oh and only use twin blade.
