The secrets of shaving

Make a mess of shaving and you could end up with a face as mangled as an undead extra’s from a George Romero zombie flick. But not if you follow these simple tips from American Crew's International All-Star Educator Ian Harold.

Open your pores: ‘It's important to give your face a thorough clean with warm water before you start. Not only does it wash away dirt but it’ll open up your pores and soften stubble, decreasing their resistance to a razor.’

Shave with the grain: ‘Use a sharp razor and shave in the direction of hair growth. This will reduce your chances of getting ingrown hairs.’

Close your pores: ‘Using cold water after shaving will close your pores so dirt can’t get into them and cause spots or blemishes.

Dry your face: ‘Resist the urge to rub your face dry with a towel, instead pat it dry to avoid the risk of irritation.’

Soothe your mug: ‘Avoid using face products that contain a lot of alcohol post-shave because they can cause your face to swell. Instead, use a light skin moisturiser to calm irritation and hydrate your face.’
