Important facts about shaving, which every man should know
Shaving seems like a simple and quick process. You just need to take the razor, hold it over your face and get rid of the stubble! But a really good shave involves a little more effort. Even if you started shaving already many years ago, you can learn something new. Experts share their knowledge in the field of dermatology and hairdressing art. There is no doubt that all men should study these shaving facts!
Time plays a role
Do not rush with the razor. You can hurt your skin. First, prepare your face for the razor. For the beginning wash off - the agent for washing softens fibers of hair. It is better not to use soap - it makes the hair stiffer and generally not too useful for the skin. Leave the detergent for a minute on the skin, and then rinse.
Use a special brush
Do not count only on your own fingers, get a special brush. A good brush thoroughly distributes the shaving cream over the hair and facilitates the process. Especially good brushes with natural nap, they raise the hairs and completely cover them with cream. The razor can be as simple as possible, with only one blade - it's enough to effectively remove hair. However, some experts recommend to stop their choice on options with two blades.
Heat and cold
Another important point - the skin should be hot and moist. To achieve this, you can shave in the shower or immediately after it. In men's hairdressing salons use damp hot towels, which help to prepare the skin and make the hair softer.
Shave in the direction of hair growth
Experts recommend moving the shaver in the direction of hair growth. Of course, moving in the opposite direction, you can carefully shave your hair, but this increases the likelihood of ingrown hairs and irritation.
From time to time, visit a professional
More and more men prefer to get shaving help from professionals. Professional shaving takes from twelve to twenty-five minutes, depending on how many warm towels the master decides to use, and you only need to sit back and relax. Hair removal can also be accompanied by a facial massage. If you want to bring self-care to perfection, you will definitely need to make a visit to a professional. Only a specialist can ideally remove hair, correct the shape of the beard, if you have it, and make your look really well groomed.
