Razor Shaving

Razor Shaving

Why Wet-Shaving !

1) A Better Shave
I discovered Wet Shaving while looking for a way to deal with a tough and troublesome beard. Wet Shaving is not about being snobbish, but about a better shave with less iritation and fewer ingrown hairs. A double-edge classic Safety Razor, like Merkur HD Classic, won’t pull the hairs and cut them below the skin level as is the case with multi-blade catridges, taking better care of your skin and your beard. Also, with an old style razor you have the luxury of choosing the sharpness of the blade ; so you can find the one that fits you best.

2) A Morning Ritual
Shaving used to be a hated task for me. I couldn’t wait until the weekend to skip a couple of days. Now I look forward to this little routine. And why? I’ve replaced aerosol cans and Disposable Razors with a Double Edge razor, a good shaving soaps and a pure badger shaving brushes. Three simple elements that are not only able to give me a bettter shave, but that put together create a moment to unwind and do something for myself that I can enjoy and feel good about.

3) Elements of a Great Shave
The secret to wet-shaving is getting yourself a good double-Edge Razor, Shaving Soap or cream and a Shaving Brush.
Different people prefer different razors and with time you will find the one that works best for you. For starters a medium size safety razor will do the job; Merkur Progress being the best deal in my opinion. I prefer shaving soaps over creams because they have fewer preservatives and last longer. The shaving brush is the pivotal element of wet-shaving. So if you get to pick only one outstanding shaving prop, this has got to be it. The brush will massage and exfoliate your skin and the motion required to apply the soap will also lift Your Hair, preparing if for the shave. For a scrubier feeling try a brush made of pure or best badger, for a soft touch super badger or silver tip will do the trick.
