It's no secret that men's shaving today is at the top of a man's list for grooming. Men everywhere are looking to increase their appearance factor and look more handsome. Why is it so hard to get a super-close shave like a male model...Everyday? What products are best for your skin? Don't you want to look better in the office, at the gym or out at night? So today I'm going to reveal the top 5 most frequently asked questions about men's shaving, and answer them by revealing my juicy secrets I acquired from the world's best looking men on how to get unparalleled men's shaving results.
How do I get the closest shave possible?
The most important step in men's shaving is to wet shave. I suggest taking a hot steamy shower and then shaving while the steam is still there. If you do this, you'll notice a smoother and closer shave. While shaving be sure to keep your face really wet with warm water. Rinse your razor after every stroke. For the closest shave possible, exfoliate your skin before you shave. It will lift up your facial hair so your razor will cut off most of it. To get extreme closeness, male models use this technique.
What is the #1 razor?
A classic double-edge razor is solid. They're super sharp and sophisticated. My sister lives in England and shipped one over from there. The quality rocks!...They're expensive. The next best thing is to go with a Gillette razor. They do a pretty good job. But stay away from the Mach3. I find Gillette's older razors give more control while shaving. The Sensor Excel will take your men's shaving to the next level.
How do I prevent razor burn, cuts, bumps, and irritation?
To open up your skin's pores, use really warm water to wet your face and keep wetting your face as you shave. This way, a layer of hot water will be between your skin and lather preventing the razor blade from dragging on your skin. Proper men's shaving means gliding the blades over your skin so don't press down on your razor. Exfoliate before you shave to prevent irritation and bumps - your hair will lift up on its toes so the razor blade glides smoothly over your skin. Use a good post-shaving cream after. Neutrogena's post-shave lotion is awesome.
What kind of shaving cream should I use for max results?
The best men's shaving creams are glycerin-based. Check the ingredients. I don't recommend foam. For a really deep lather, use a classic shaving brush. That's right, go old-school. You'll notice a noticeably closer and more comfortable shave immediately.
Will shaving daily make my hair grow thicker?
This is a wide-spread myth in men's grooming...And a lot of men believe it. Scientifically speaking, hair is dead. It doesn't grow back thicker the more you shave...Although it appears this way when you shave daily because you aren't shaving properly. Hair closer to the root is thicker. If you shave daily, you're not getting a close shave because your razor isn't getting close enough to the root of the hair... The thickest part of your hair strand. Imagine hair that hasn't been cut in a week. It'll stand taller and upright giving you a closer shave. So if you don't want this thickness appearance from shaving daily, be sure to shave after a shower and exfoliate immediately before shaving. This secret is pure gold when it comes to men's shaving.
