”I added this section to the site mainly because I believe men get a pretty rough deal when it comes to grooming and I want to make sure you all get the best advice I can find. I constantly find that women pick on men for either being too rough or taking care of themselves too much, and it adds just as much pressure for a man to look good as it does for women when they look at skinny models in magazines and feel they need to diet, so if you are a woman reading this (which you shouldn’t be) then ease up on your man he has feelings too. OK so shaving is a pretty standard task that takes place normally before work when you really cant be arsed, you splash some warm water on your face, slap some foam on your face and rip yourself to shreds with a Bic and end up sore and blotchy, but do you care? no of course you don’t you only woke up half an hour ago. I think most men including me need to go back to school when it comes to shaving and learn to do it properly because if its done right the results are far better and a bit of after care goes a long way.
Preparation:
I strongly believe that you should shave at night before bed just as you would wash and brush your teeth, the reason is that your face is more relaxed than first thing in the morning, and your concentration is better also shaving at night means you wont need to do it in the morning which means more time in bed. Before you reach for the razor it is worth prepping the face before a shave, use a pre shave wash like king of shaves, this helps cleanse the skin and get rid of any dirt before a shave.
Applying Foam or Gel:
It’s time to go back to how your grandad did it, using a shave brush is a brilliant way to shave, the brush acts as a mild exfoliant and brings the hairs up ready for shaving. Use a good gel or foam such as loreal for men or nivea and apply a good amount using the brush, work it into the face in a circular motion to help raise the hairs. Once you have a good even coating your ready for shaving.
The Shave:
By far the best way to shave is to use a cutthroat style razor they give an exceptionally close shave, but unless you visit a specialist barber that can do this for you it’s not very practical for everyday use, so instead use a good quality single blade razor, these fancy razors that offer 4 blades are in my opinion a waste of time and money. When shaving always go with the hair growth and never against it as this is what causes razor burn, going with the growth means you wont get sore and if your razor is of good quality you will get a very close shave.
AfterCare:
After you have finished shaving the aftercare is just as important as the shave itself, a good quality non fragranced moisturiser should be used on the face and neck, never use alcohol based liquids such as aftershave this will just inflame the skin. Below is a selection of products available on amazon which I think work well when shaving, try out shaving this way and i’m sure you will find it much better.

just wax you wont get bumps
Yes, it really helps get rid of the irritation and bumps.Hubby tells me that daily shaving makes men's faces smoother and less sensitive as well.Another thing that helps, especially at first, is to scrub your legs vigorously with a cloth or a poof before you shave. I'm not sure why it helps, but it really does. Once you're used to shaving daily, I think the shaving itself accomplishes most of this.
well if you can grow a nice 5 o'clock shadow, I would recommend skipping the shaving all together. Just a thought :),
Haven’t met either of the Porters personally, but a friend who is a neighbor of theirs says they are both extremely pleasant.
The longer I go without shaving, the harder it becomes to ignore the siren song of the handlebar mustache.
Sat, many apologies this is such a late reply.
I think you can start shaving as soon as the scar isn't bleeding or oozing at all and the skin has healed enough that you're not going to start it bleeding again by shaving. post 4 weeks should be enough. However I'd be wary of depilatory cream for a bit longer. Shaving is most important soon after the op when the skin is healing and is softer and thinner where the scar is.

Corin is now shaving her tummy, waddaya doing??? They'll grow even more now! #bb11
I prefer to use a different razor because the hair down there is thicker and could make shaving your face more uncomfortable or at least make you change blades more often. Just so you know, once you shave, you will have to keep it shaved or be prepared to deal with days of bad itching when it starts growing back. I find that if I keep the twig 'n berries shaved for long periods, there's less itching when I do let the hair grow back out. I don't do this often, though, because I think it feels cooler, cleaner, and more sensitive to pleasure when shaved. As for the stuff up above, I just keep it closely trimmed, not clean shaven.

It is good to know that you have now found the right razor for you. We are all unique and so are our bodies so you alone know what is best for you. Do you use a badger shaving brush to apply the shaving soap on your face? Badger shaving brushes got this soft and supple bristles that is perfect for most people. Try it yourself and maybe you'd discover that it is good for your skin as well.
I’ve waited tables for about 5 years and it helps out when going to school. I live in a state where the minimum wage for tipping jobs is less than federal minimum wage. At last count it was around 4.13/hr - however after taxes I basically get jack, so tips are my bread and butter. Yes, I know I could get another job but I like my job, sometimes, and interacting with different types of people; some good and just as many bad. I feel that if I give you good service, tip me for it. If I lacked at my job to provide you with good service then tip me accordingly. Treat me like a person who’s doing a job, and remember, I have ability to ruin your entire evening over the course of one meal!

Great tips to follow. Being professional and showing them there’s more to come I think are the most important. You need to give them a great article, that makes them want to come back. And then make sure you don’t disappoint.
