all good tips. when i shave, i apply King of Shave Oil and then shaving cream on top of that. The KOS makes the razor glide better and elminate razor burns.
hahaahaha thats an amazing idea!! you my friend are a genius!! 
This morning, put some of more of that office men's bathroom alcohol on my head. When no one was looking, of course. My head is so smooth. Like I never had hair to shave.
I use shaving oil on my wet dome, than apply my shave cream or gel. After I use some alcohol free witch hazel and some pure Aloe Vera Gel (when I say pure i mean it, I have several plants growing at home. A large leaf with lots of juice easily lasts for a week).
No razor burns, no cuts, just a smooth dome
I rinse with cold water (or ice)and then apply witch hazel. Then I use alcohol free after shave.
For the last week, been using pre-shave oil - King of Shaves. It's a made a big difference to the razor burn.
