Thread: burning like five alarm chili-Don't over do it!

Like overdoing five alarms chilli overdoing the shave is going to burn baby burn.
I thought I’d post this heads up to those newbs like me who will finish up the first couple of shaves with a multi blade trying to get a really close shave by overdoing it with a multi blade after the super exfoliating efforts of the str8 on your still learning to be shaved face.

From the wealth of information on this and other forums you have heard how over shaving, agains the grain shaving and overstretching, particularly with multi blades can lead to burn, ingrown hairs and razor bumps, even scarring.

Take care in rushing that baby but shave by over doing it with your clean up efforts with your now back up weapons.

Don’t rush it and scar up your soon to be beautiful face brothers. KISS and let the learning curve happen.

But if you use a DE for the finishing pass, you get an amazing shave.. 2 passes with a straight and 1 pass with a DE beat 3 passes with either of them. Teamwork

I agree - this is what I do for an ultimate special occasion BBS shave. Both of them together this way are better than either of them alone no matter how many passes I make.

Of course if you're only using one, the straight does the best job overall.

so far I can only do a WTG pass with the straight, but an XTG with the DE makes me beautiful.....

ok, ok.... smooth, not beautiful.
