Razor burn, weepers, best practice

I feel a bit of a goose mentioning this, but, every now and then, maybe monthly, I get raised weeping bumps after a shave, may take six hours to appear. We all know what they are, So, is there a definitive answer as to why they appear, considering my razors in my rotation of say a dozen or so are absolutely super sharp and I follow all the normal procedures ie, From the wiping off the oil to completing 60/70 on leather. I'm very pedantic about the quality of my edges and if I felt one was not quite 'there' it would go to the re-hone or touch up bin. So, if we can work out why? Then we can look at 'what to do/treat'. These annoying apparitions take forever to get to the point where you can shave over them again. Maybes a week. Anyone, who has a method of addressing the 'Why?', then maybe we can find the how to avoid them, and if that is not there, how can we get rid of them quickly as they are a pain in the....well....you know what I mean?

P.S I've been only going WTG for a while, yet they still appear!

Do they seem to be consistent in the same area? Try to monitor your pressure in that area next time you shave. Perhaps its a harder spot and your focusing more on angle or something and loosing track of your pressure. Or perhaps its the other way around your angle is to steep, just take a step back and pause to look at how you are doing it where they occur.

When anything like that happens to me it usually is a soap that is irritating to my skin, razor pressure or an aftershave.

I use Jack Black's Bump stuff, which my son recommended to me http://www.amazon.com/Jack-Black-Raz.../dp/B000GDFYDE. SRD has it sometimes and if you can find it in your neck of the woods, it may help. It really works for me.

Thanks for that, the spots seem to be just below the jaw line on both sides, just as you want to sweep down the area below the jaw. I think definitely your point is accurate in my case. I also have a few heavy razors, 7/8 1/4 hollow, TI 7/8, Modoso 15/16 Dorko 13/16 and others, where the steep angle comes in, so I will take your point and try and take the steepness that tends to get worse with the bigger ones.

I have used things to nourish my skin after an episode of abuse, and that is typically what have caused mine. So pure shea butter or coconut oil are very good to sooth angry bumps. Most of the time I ad that as a pre bed application when I have had too.
As for the causes, in my case too high and angle, too much pressure, and overshaving. The overshaving came after the other two. Too many passes basically, and it makes my skin feel and look just like too much pressure. My neck is fairly sensitive and most of the time I am limited to two passes. The direction is not nearly as import an as the number. So I go one against followed by one mostly across but a little with.

Think of the possibility of over-maintaining the razors. They may need a touch of CroOx or a pile of stropping.
What you are describing could be from too high an angle, too much pressure, or blades that have been overhoned.
Lots of strop smooths the shave. JMO

Thanks gentlemen, I take a lot from your contributions. For me, I think I'm steep angled over the area affected, and perhaps, but reluctantly I may have been edge chasing a bit. Thanks guys....feet back on the ground.

I rub my fingers on an alum block for a super grip. The area under the jaw as you describe, I stretch way up as high as possible so that area is on the flats of my cheek. It works like a charm for me. When I say stretch, I pull the skin almost to the point of pain.

Re Wayne's suggestion - tilting your head to the side you are shaving whilst pulling the skin up works.
I also thought an overly harsh edge may contribute.

Gentlemen, appreciate your assistance. My last annoyance came last week and the razor was one I got brand new at a great price. The Stainless steel Dovo Grenadille 6/8. just to set the scene. I have been straight shaving for 4 years, HAD and RAD are embedded in my soul! I have say 40 razors,a lot of my terrific razors vintage Dorkos etc have been cotton wooled and I for daily use have about 12 to keep the rotation edges ticking along nicely. Back to the Dovo Grenadille. This razor was trouble! I used one layer of tape for no other reason than cosmetic. Followed my time tested usual technique. As it was brand new I gently used a 20k gokumyo to see if the brand new edge only needed a little coaxing to get to shave testing. NO, I won't bore you but I swear tape off, tape on, this razor took a few sessions, some over an hour to get this razor to where I would hand it to a friend to shave with. So to respond to the harsh shave suggestion, this Dovo may be the catalyst to the Harsh razor weeper. That bloody Stainless razor, you know, I hate a razor to beat me, so it stays in the rotation, gets a crox hit before leather. I've even risked my health by hand stropping! Don't buy one unless you are a masochist, dead set they're bad news.
Cheers fellas, Bob, Today I'm using a Thiers Issard 7/8 Bijou de France. Which took a half hour to set a new bevel, polish and it is beautiful a lovely razor.....

I have this quite often. Is usually from shaving straight after honing. I tend to enjoy a few whiskys while honing. And then use too much pressure because I feel no pain thanks to whisky. Doubt this is your problem. But you may find it funny.

Below the jawline is my trouble spot and have used all the above for a smooth shave but I'll add just one more. Grain growth. Mine grows upwards there and if Im lazy and shave from the jawline down im going ATG on my first pass. This nearly always ends in razor burn for me.

Fellas, just to tidy up this subject, my issues I believe are *Harsh sharp edges, through edge chasing/insufficient stropping. Fact that my smallest razor that I 'like' to use is 6/8, most 7/8 (Big Harts etc) Lending itself to over acute angles, and I wear glasses so it's hard to stretch. (Believe me, it's better I use em!). So these bumps are a sliver of top skin when irritated, leaks clear fluid, sometimes don't appear for several hours. If you can imagine slightly grazing an elbow or knee, the clear fluid that is emitted. Competitive bicycle racers often have this exact thing.
The CURE....does work...Use a smear of Hydro-cortisone cream in the suspected area when you have an inkling of one appearing. It is an anti-inflammatory and reduces the swelling of any 'bump' and can beat them before they arrive. Give it a try guys, but bare in mind that my floors as mentioned are the root cause, and this cream will help. Cheers Bob
