DRAMATIC Reduction in cuts/nicks...

• Just as an FYI to those of us who may be plagued by nicks and cuts while shaving....
  
  I personally have found that since I started experimenting and mixing a few drops of ALOE VERA GEL into my shaving gel BEFORE applying, I create such a "GLIDE RIDE" for my razor that I have DRAMATICALLY REDUCED the chance of "mishaps" with the razor and slice (or nick) myself while doin' the deed!
  
  You still have to pay CLOSE attention to watch you're doin', because the Aloe makes your head very slippery, but you're getting an extremely close shave, and moisturizing your scalp all at the same time! The KEY is to TAKE YOUR TIME and GO SLOW!!

  BTW...The Aloe I use is NOT the "fake stuff" found@ places like Wally World, K-Mart, etc, where you have like 2% Aloe and the rest is "fillers"...rather this is the better quality type of product found in Health and Nuitrition stores.
  
  So if your plagued by nicks and cuts, this could be a form of "preventive maintenance" to help get you back in control!!

• Thanks Noodles for the tip. I will have to try that. I have been using aloe vera gel as an after shave which is very soothing as well as some headblade glossy and a little baby oil gel to lubricate my dry skin on the dome after a shave.

• Try switching to a shaving oil instead.
