Hey guys, how many of u keep fighting with razor burn. Mine is mainly around my jaw and upper neck area, only to the left and right sides...never middle area.
Just curious as to who gets this aswell?....Also, what do u do to stop it?...new razor?, any lotions?, electric razors are crap so im not even gunna go there....so yeah.....whats the deal??:scratch: this bites having it everytime i shave.....
I usually get it when I shave my balls !!!!
one thing thats helped me in the past is to always have a sharp razor and i use those oxy pads right after i shave. stings like a mofo but keeps the burn away.

Gilette just came out with a new razor its called the fusion- available at cvs
I use a Electic shaver for my Face and Chin area, but i can't use a razor or a Electric razor on the front of my neck i use hair clippers, and i avoid all razor burn from doing it this way.
Yeah don't use a Electric Razor on your balls either......BURNS.
i hate razor burns...i can only use the mac 3 razors twice if not i'll break out dirty.
Hightime Bumpstopper 2. Works great for razor bumps and burn. You can buy it over the counter at any drugstore.
cold water instead of hot water. and do it right after a shower cause your hair is softer.
I use an electric shaver and have ZERO problems. I absolutely hate the feeling of a smooth face after shaving with a razor. Dont know y, just hate it. Its like the feeling of rubbing corn starch between your fingers. Try it sometime!
I use an electric Norelco (top of the line one) for under the chin and left/right sides, an electric square razor to shape/cut the 'stache and beard, lines, etc., then in the shower I use an M3 with shaving cream to get the sideburns and down and the jaw line area.
Skin is crystal clear.

I use a straight edge, nothing feels better to me, also i feel as though its cleaner because there is no gunk and shit stuck in between any blades etc. I also use cold cold water when i shave and it feels more refreshing and keeps pores closed so no dirt gets in. I splash my face with cold water when Im done and pat it dry, i never rub my face just pat it with a clean soft towel. Then I put on an aftershave and I never have any problems, althought i used to years ago when using other razors.

Forgot to mention, when a girl sees you using a straight edge like a pro she thinks you are THEE MAN.

wet your face..put it on and brush your teeth while you are waiting for it to soak in so if softens up your face
have a very fresh razor and when you go to rinse the hair from your blade dont run it on the front of the blade as it will dull them or just rinse it off in a full sink of water
I use Schick Xtreme3. I shave after I shower with an electric on my face and try to use it as much as possible on my neck. Then I get the Schick and finish up my neck. Then I was it again in hot soap and water. I rinse using cold. Then I pat dry. I live in the desert, so I have to use hand loation for extra dry skin after. This regimen suits me well.

You know it man, straight barbershop style. Best way to go.Quote:

I get it bad also, what works sometimes for me is Mach3 razor, use it for atleast 6 weeks shaving down with Nivea senstive gel. I dont have to much hair on face so I get away with 1 razor for awhile.
razor burn sucks! i just make sure i dnt have anything on me the next few days that might rub against my neck.
shave with the grain at all times as well, and i use a moisturiser afterwards by clearasil thats really good for it. but its not nice at all
I am a big fan of TENDSKIN, it is the only thing that works for me, and I was just about to get lazer done cause I got razor burns everytime. This stuff works, you will thank me

Google it, some stores sell it .But I buy it online, the bottles last long, and are around 20 bucks. Put it on a towel or pad and use it right after you shower on your, face, chest etc. Stings a bit, but next day you are baby soft. Check the AR spa for more info on it aswell.
