Thread: Taking it on the chin

Hey,
Keep your finger tips dry on the non-razor hand and stretch the skin behind the blade. Lower the angle of blade until it is almost flat. Then, work the blade in short strokes over the chin.
Works for me!

just keep on at it... you'll eventually get the hang of it..

Maybe send out one of your razors to be prfessionally honed ?

You tried a lot of things, but I didn't see you mention pulling your skin tightly. My chin requires me to yank the skin as tightly as I can without ripping it off and then move the blade across it with a flat-angled motion. I have to move it a little more quickly than I do on the rest of my face and I swipe it with a slight windshield-wiper motion.

My chin must have a billion tiny little skin folds in it that absolutely must be stretched flat before I can pass a razor over it. If yours is like mine then that's my suggestion

*disclaimer* I've only been shaving for 3 or 4 weeks, but the process I just described gives me a consistent and much better result. My skin thanks me. Your chin skin & hair may be different
