How to shave without getting razorbumps
Introduction
A steaming hot towel on your face can soften the beard so they can be removed with less irritation.
Instructions
Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Things You'll Need
- Clean & Sharp Razor
- bathroom sink
- hot tap water
- thick wash cloth
- facial moisturizers
- shaving cream
Steps
1
Step One
Fill your bathroom sink about half full with hot tap water. Then, thoroughly soak a thick wash cloth in the water. Wring the cloth out just so it's not dripping wet.
2
Step Two
Lean your face over the sink and place the hot cloth on the bearded part of your face. Depending on the coarseness of your whiskers, you may need to resoak the cloth and apply it again.
3
Step Three
Put on a light layer of shaving cream on your whiskers. Too much cream will only clog your razor!
4
Step Four
Use one hand to hold your razor while you smooth your skin out ahead of the razor with your other hand. Don't make more than one short swipe across your face before you rinse your razor clean in the sink water.
5
Step Five
Once you're done shaving, rinse off the rest of the shaving cream by splashing cool tap water on the bearded area of your face. Follow that by patting your face dry with a soft, absorbent towel.
6
Step Six
Instead of using after shave, a skin conditioner will help make your face feel touchably soft.
Overall Tips & Warnings
- The shaving cream you use should be made especially for your face. That is, if your skin is sensitive, then your cream should be designed to care for sensitive skin, and so on.
- Dull, dirty razor blades are the leading cause of nicks and cuts.
- A pivoting head on a razor allows you to shave your contoured face easier than a stationary head.
- A double blade will give a man a smoother, closer shave because the second blade cuts what the first one misses.

Overall Tips & Warnings
- Shave at a time when you are comfortable and not rushed.
- Choose to shave in a location that is most comfortable for you. It can be done in a variety of ways like in the shower or while taking a bath. Do what works best for you and what you are most comfortable with.
- Use a safety, disposable razor - never share a razor with a friend or family member.
- Make sure that the area you are shaving is wet.
- Apply a hypoallergenic shaving cream or lotion. Do not use body wash, which has perfume and can be an irritant.
- Shave legs in a slow upward motion. Some women only shave the bottom of their legs (from the knee down), others do the whole leg. Be careful around the knees and the shins because they are easily cut
- Shave underarms with your arm up in a slow downward motion.
- Shave your bikini area one side at a time in a slow upward motion. Always wear cotton underwear, as this is less likely to irritate your vaginal area.
- After you are done, apply a moisturizer to the area you have shaved (again, make sure it is not perfumed). This may help to prevent dry skin and possible ingrown hairs.
- As a note, shave only areas that have hair growth that you want to remove. Do not shave eyebrows or your mustache (for women). Do not pluck or pick at unwanted hair as this can cause infected hair follicles.
Other methods of removing unwanted hair include waxing, electrolysis and depilatories. Bleaching is another alternative that is used mainly around the upper lip area of women. These methods work best if done by a professional but can be expensive, time-consuming and uncomfortable.
In addition, to following these instructions, talk to your mom or a female relative. They can give you other useful tips in shaving and may even be able to demonstrate it to you. As always, if your skin is becoming irritated due to shaving or if you are having any health problem, stop shaving and see a doctor.
