It takes due diligence to learn what old heads have known for years and that is practice will make the perfect shave. Shaving has been part of men’s facial grooming and women’s beauty routine. In the process, there are only two possible results; it could either leave your skin smooth and flawless or consign razor burn, ingrown hairs, nicks and cuts. The latter can happen to anyone, but of all people, those that have skin sensitivity issues are more susceptible and can only tolerate less irritation. The right razor at the right angle can relieve these problems.
Take control of your shave!
Leave skin slightly wet. Apply shaving cream or gel liberally on fingertips or a shaving brush in a circular motion to straighten the hair. Massage gently onto skin to desired foam. Shave in the direction of hair growth, limiting the number of passes of the blade, to prevent irritation.
If you wish to make a second pass, re-lather and shave your face, this time in the opposite direction of hair growth. Rinse razor often with warm water to clean blade and increase glide. Rinse well with warm water. Rinse your face with cool water and apply aftershave balm to soothe and re-hydrate the skin.
We have also placed a thin coat of oil over the blade to protect it. For long term storage, razors should be lightly oiled and stored in a dry environment. When you receive the razor, all you need to do is wipe off the oil and it is ready to shave the first time without stropping. An initial stropping can also be done if you choose.
Straight razors should be stropped prior to each use and over time will need to be touched-up on a sharpening stone. Any straight razor requires a particular attention and maintenance, it is very important you clean and dry carefully after use.
