YOUR face shaving routine

[Magoo]

I save my face every other day. In the winter I use an electric either a foil or a rotory I have both. In the sumer I use a regular razor , I've tried most out there.I like the sensor best for me. But I wind up buying whats on sale. The BIC and Gillet Good News works fine.Then Bald  Guys  moistureizer.Some  Witch  Hazel in the sumer.

I shave in the sink, get a little off the sides of my ears...then hit the shower...lather up with HeadSlick and start combing against the grain with my HeadBlade...both from the front/back/side unil I'm SLY...

if my beard is getting too long. I'll buzz it down with no guard on clippers very carefully (skin got pinched and ripped open once lots of blood) then

Then I wet my face with some warm water

Apply shaving cream

Shave with the Mach 3 everyone except my chin where I keep a little chin mitten as you can see in my photo.

Dry off and enjoy my day(all this follows after my headshave ofcourse)

My routine's pretty simple for both.  I splash down my head and face with very warm water...rub my shaving soap puck over both, work it into a lather with a brush. Then I wait and brush my teeth.

After everything has softened up, I start shaving, usually with whatever happens to be on sale.  I hop into the shower to rinse, and I'm done.

For the face I use my trusty Norelco (daily).

When the goatee starts getting a little scraggly, I have found that the the clipper attachments on the Conair Cleanhead do a fantastic job with tidying things up (even better than the beard trimmer I had been using until that point).

A little splash of Thayer's Lavender witch hazel (or some Afta), and I'm good to go.

I have gotten to where I just lather the face up while I am lathering the dome.  I am a sink shaver using the braille method on the head.  Hot water, secret shave, Bigelow cream and just brush it on.  Kinda look like a snowman.  Works great for me.  I use the same for head and face now---which works awesome!!  I use Nivea aftershave balm and then some aloe gel.  I have gotten to where I love to shave!!

Thanks, I you do use one on your head go slaw and easy. I have only shave my head once with a double edge razor, it was a very close shave but I had quite a few nicks. I'm going to try it on the noggin again but go at it more carefully and slower next time.
I do however shave my face with them daily and absolutely love the results.

That Gillette adjustable sure brings back memories.

That Gillette adjustable sure brings back memories.

Thats one of my favorites. Dial up number 7 and you get a pretty aggressive shave. I think I could skip a day or 2 of shaving if I were to set it on 9.

I usually shave my head in the shower, so usually after getting out of the shower, I shave my face at the sink. My headblade is used to shave my head. I use a regular safety razor, usually the dollar store brand, with 10 in a pack. They are the $2 ones, not the cheaper ones. (I know thatis pretty cheap for 10 razors, but there are cheaper ones out there.) They absolutely must have that lubricating strip on them. If I buy the cheaper ones without the strip, I'll bleed and break out. My wife uses these whem she is out of her Gillette Venus blades, plus they aren't that cheap so we don't buy them all the time. Then I  put a thin coating of nozema and my wife's shaving gel. Then I shave my face, but I leave the goatee and trim that as needed. Sometimes when my wife gets her hair done, I'll have her beautician trim my goatee.

clean face then rinse vigorously with COLD water then apply shaving cream and use a sharp razor. never shave untill you get out of shower that way hair is soft and easy to shave and skin is moisturized by the steam

Nowadays I just keep a short stubble on my face and neck, so I basically just use my beard trimmer without any attachments all over. Then I use a Mach 3 (same blade I use on my head) to keep the sideburns from going above the ears. Nice and easy.
