hi im new to being sly (less than a week) earlier today i shaved and razor burned myself rather badly. Mainly near the back of the neck region, and some behind one ear.

 first of all whats the best stuff to put on a razor burn ? Also what steps can help ensure that i dont do this again at least of this magnitude.
 
 My routine has been to wash my head in warm water, pat dry then ive been using a hair conditioner to soften up the stubble, because I found shaving cream just doesnt work that well for me it felt as if i was dry shaving. as for the i bought a head blade sport. which seems to work great for the front and the back but it seems difficult to use on the sides. i can only get to the skin if i go against the grain, which is hard to do on the sides with the headblade. im sure this is what caused the burn behind the ear. then i use a warm rag to clean . i pat dry, then ive been using head lube glossy.

 any suggestions will be greatly appreciated I love being sly, a little less painful would be nice though.

Thanks

Hey bud, i'm fairly new sly guy too, i've been shaving with a razor for the last few months. anyways, what i would do is instead of using a warm rag to clean, what i do i rinse my whole head off in COLD water, the coldest i can get the faucet, and then pat dry. after that i use some sensitive skin lotion and put that on my head.... as for the razor burn, that'll go away soon... at least you dont have it like me, i have a rare skin condition and i have some spots on the back of my head that look EXACTLY like razor burn, but it's totally not.... so yours will go away.
hope this helped a little.

I have a hot shower first and I use Headshed evry time in the shower. When I come out I put shaving oil on my head then Fusion Tough Beard shaving gel. Following this I use Head Blade clear head. Then the Headlube glossy. Hope this helps. Most of the guys have a different routine and I suspect it will be trial and error for you till you find a routine that suits you. Good luck.  O0

Tyler:
What type of shaving cream did you try before the conditioner?  Also, make sure not to apply too much pressure to the blade on the HeadBlade.

i used barbasol it just didnt seem slippery enough. also i suspect i did use much presure on the sides.
