OT: SHAVING QUESTIONS

Make sure you send me my damn royalties

I use Andis T-Line Trimmers. They are perfect for me. They will run you about $45-$55 at a beauty supply store. Either one of their trimmer clippers should do the job.

I follow up my shaving with a product called Tend Skin.. Its in a blue bottle with a gold top and can usually be found in most hood/asian beauty supply shops. Works wonders...

Google Tend Skin... they will send you a sample in the mail.

I struggled with sensitive skin and bumps for years.  I used majic shave every couple days but still got bumps on the neck and face.  About 4 years ago, I started using it only about twice per week and shaving with blades in between.  Much better on the old mug. 

To make it even better, two Christmases ago, my cousin got me the fusion razor with the five blades.  Awesome.  On my blade days, I shave my cheeks all the way to just above the neck line in an upward direction using Noxema shave gel right after a HOT shower.  Then I reverse directions and shave downward to discourage any hairs that want to come out in all crazy directions.  I NEVER shave the neck area in an upward manner; only downward. 

This method works well for me.  Shaving upwards gets my mug much smoother than the magic shave.  But shaving every day is the key.  If I slack for a couple days, the bumps come back.  Also, I spray tea tree oil on right after I shave.  It's a miracle worker for bumps also.  It burns like a MF and is sticky for half hour but worth it.
