1. Hydrate Hydrate Hydrate

I can’t say this enough, keeping the skin moist and hydrated from start to finish is the number 1 key to a clean men’s shave. After a hot shower is best.

2. Use a shaving brush. (Badger Brush)

Wet your shave brush with warm water put shaving cream into a bowl and whip/stir before applying to the face this will create a thicker lather to help the cream get underneath the hair and create a barrier against your skin.

3. Stretch the skin.

Stretching your skin as much as possible is so important for the ultimate men’s shave. This will force the hair to stand upright for a more even finish and help to prevent cuts.

4. Two passes.

1- With the grain
2- Across the grain

What is this?! Your first pass should always be with the grain of your hair growth. Once you’ve completed your entire face, re-lather and do your second pass across the grain.
