If you are facing shaving razor bumps, irritated skin, or cuts after every shaving, your daily ritual can transform into a real errand. But by following a proper shaving technique, you can prevent shaving mistakes and get the safest daily shave with no marks left on your skin.
A good wet shave starts with a well-equipped wet shaving kit, and most men fail to get the best wet shaving kits. Many believe that splashing some water on their skin before shaving is enough for lathering. However, shaving dry or stiff skin often leads to an uncomfortable experience.
To ensure an effortless shave, it is best to warm up the area and apply shaving soap to it. Warm water will soften the skin, as well as open up the pores, and the shaving soap will lift any oil, dirt, or dead skin cells. Your beard will become progressively softer the more steam you use.
Here are the top four most common shaving mistakes and how you can overcome them:
1. Poor Shaving Foam
While a market-standard shaving foam works for most people, it usually contains alcohol, parabens, preservatives, and sulphates. This mixture can lead to skin irritation and does very little to protect or nourish those with sensitive skin.
For smooth and flawless shaves, choose Brush n Blade’s shaving soap instead of foam or gel. For best results, it is suggested to work the lather into the skin and allow it to remain for a couple of minutes to soften any stubble. The soap is applied to the surface of the skin to the extent that the hair becomes lifted and ready to be cut. With our exceptional lathering products, razor blades can easily glide over your skin and feel no friction under the shield we create. This allows for less discomfort associated with razor cuts or redness and peace of mind when you shave.

2. Blunt Blades
Cuts, abrasions, and skin irritation can result from low-quality razors due to skipping or dragging. Shaving repetitively over the area due to dull blades increases irritation, leading to skin damage.
A proper wet shave requires a sharp and well-maintained traditional wet shaving kit. A sharp kit not only protects your skin but also saves you time.

3. Bad Shaving Technique
It’s easy to get lost in the increasing variety of men’s grooming products and not know how to use them. A significant number of men, due to a lack of understanding of wet shaving, suffer from rashes, cuts, irritation, and uneven hair growth due to a misunderstanding of the basic techniques.
4. After Shave Care
A particularly common mistake is neglecting after-shave care. Skin sensitivity increases after shaving due to increased redness and irritation. Helps relieve skin irritation and closes pores. Hence, post-shave care is necessary for any grooming routine looking to create the best outcome.
