Gentlemen, Here’s How to Get a Clean Shave

Gentlemen, Here’s How to Get a Clean Shave

Shaving can be a challenge for men. You may develop a rash, scabs, or bumps if you do it too quickly or the wrong way. There are certain tips and tricks to follow, as well as the right products to use. We've teamed up with Must Man Professional to show you the benefits of a close shave and share some trending beard styles.

1. WET SKIN BEFORE SHAVING

You must soften the skin prior to shaving otherwise it will burn and leave red bumps. Taking a shower or bath prior to shaving is a great idea!

2. USE SHAVING CREAM OR GEL

To achieve smooth skin after shaving, we recommend using Must Man Professional Polished Clear Shaving Gel. It contains vitamin E and is thick in texture. It will smooth, protect, and hydrate your skin leaving it ultra soft after shaving.

3. SHAVE IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION

Shave in the direction that hair grows to avoid ingrown hairs. Always remember to change blades after 5 to 7 shaves to help minimize irritation. Men who have acne need to be especially careful when shaving, as it can make it worse. Use a sharp blade and shave lightly, never try to shave off the acne.

We recommend trying the Must Man Professional The Gentleman Double Edged Safety Razor. Designed with 5 blades for a close shave, it offers a smooth and precise experience. Best of all, it’s environmentally friendly and plastic-free!

A FEW MORE TIPS FOR YOUR RAZOR

In between shaves, make sure to store your razor in a cool dry area. After usage, make sure it is completely dry to prevent bacteria from growing on it. It is best to not leave it in the shower or on a wet sink. Make sure you rinse your razor after each swipe to ensure a clean gliding experience. And our last tip, go slow! Many times, we have seen men in a hurry to shave only to leave their skin irritated, bumpy, and burning afterwards. Take your time when shaving for the love of your skin!

Beards have become shorter due to the pandemic. Wearing masks interfered with long beards therefore most decided to get rid of a few inches. However, beards are still trending, here are a few trending styles.

THE 5 O’CLOCK SHADOW

This beard is subtle and short, a timeless classic. Depending on your hair, this will take 2-5 days to grow. It’s perfect for your daily activities and isn’t going away anytime soon.

 

THE SCRUFFY BEARD

This beard style takes 2-4 weeks to grow and will need to be kept trimmed to keep it clean. It’s not supposed to pass the Adam’s apple, therefore, make sure to keep it short. This beard style is known to become itchy, therefore we suggest using a beard oil to keep it moisturized. The Original by Must Man Professional will be your best ally.

SHORT ROUNDED BEARD

This style is great for men who have rounder or squared shaped faces. Let your beard grow for 1 to 2 months and keep everything at a uniform length.
