How to not get razor bumps with a razor

[Lewis Black]

I see this thread pop up once in a while and it's filled with crappy advice. Look it's extremely simple. You don't need no fancy shyt either. Soap, water, razor.

1. Wet your face with water and soap any kind of soap what lubricates your face.

2. Shave with the grain!!!!!!

It's that simple. Shave with the direction your hair grows.

Take your right finger and put it to the right side of your nose. Now run your finger to your ear. That's how you shave with the grain.

Shaving from left to right (ear to nose) will give you bumps. So remember it's always (nose to ears). Even on when you shave left side of your face keep it nose to ears.


You don't even need a fancy razor. It's the technique
