Overlooked Aspects of Wet-Shaving - Blade Angle, Etc

!±8± Overlooked Aspects of Wet-Shaving - Blade Angle, Etc

The most important, and wildly overlooked, aspects of wet-shaving are: the blade angle and the pressure applied on the razor.

1) The correct blade angle is 30 degrees with the face. A wider angle will result in you scrapping your face rather than shaving. At a too steep angle you'll cut yourself. No 0 razor or shaving cream will help you if you don't shave at the correct blade angle.

2) Do not apply any pressure on the razor. Let the razor's weight do the job. If you have a low-weight razor, apply some very gentle pressure when shaving. For the past 20-30 years Gillette and Schick worked very hard to create idiot-proof shaving systems that can be used even by a monkey. With double-edge razors you actually have to pay attention to what you are doing, when shaving. The benefits are that you'll get a good shave, use less harmful chemicals on your skin, say goodbye to ingrown hairs and actually enjoy your shave.

3) Do not be afraid of the blade. Befriend the blade and think that after shaving, you will see the perfect result of what your "bestfriend blade" had helped you with. Always keep in mind that shaving would make you more presentable to people and the blade is the one helping you.

Present your best self wherever you go. All people want to be respected and admired, and to get the adulation of other people, put your best foot forward. The very first thing that people you meet would see is your face. Make a good impression.
