The 9 habits of using a razor can hurt your skin.

Never shave before taking a shower. Your skin is unprepared for this, and you're likely to have a burning sensation after shaving and grow your beard.

2. When shaving with a blade, don't strain your face too much. It's easy to shave off the fibrous roots of the skin.

3. Do not shave the beard from the same place in different directions. In this way you may shave your beard too short to form an aftershave.

4. Do not use too old or even rusty blades. When the blade is not sharp enough, it should be replaced in time.

Don't shave before doing sports. Because the sweat will irritate the skin you've just scraped and become infected.

Don't shave the hair. Although shaving makes the beard cleaner, it is easy to irritate the skin to form an antler.

7. Don't borrow a razor from others, and don't lend yourself to others. Contaminated blades can infect severe skin diseases.

8. When shaving with a razor, don't do it on dry whiskers. If you don't keep your beard moist, those scratches and bloody pustules will last at least three or four days.

9. After-shave lotion is not medically necessary. Although the composition does make shaved skin looks more radiant, even though you would like to have some fragrance after shaving, but it is recommended that you do not use with the perfume of ethanol and hamamelis tincture, because that would lead to infection. Take a look at the ingredients of a moisturizer after shaving, and see if they're used for shaving.

Tips

1. The razor should be disinfected with alcohol.

A startling report confirms that the number of bacteria in the razor is 125 times greater than that of the toilet seat. If the razor is not clean, it is easy to attach bacteria and other dirt to the blade. If the skin is damaged, it may cause infection after use. Experts warn that the razor should be regularly disinfected with alcohol.

Clean after each use. After 2-3 times, put the blade into alcohol and soak and then dry it with cotton. After each use of the blade, remove the blade and remove the residue with a brush. When the electric razor is clean, use a small brush to clean the knife rest, and then use a cotton ball dipped in alcohol to gently wipe off the oil on the blade.

2. Look at the skin type for the shaver.

After a few men use electric shaver, the skin around the mouth will itch for a while, which may have something to do with the nickel in contact with an electric razor. Nickel is the most common allergen, and when skin is damaged, bacterial infections and excessive friction can increase the absorption of nickel. At this point, you should stop using the electric shaver, choose the old-fashioned manual shaver or the best use of a multi-blade razor, which can reduce the number of scratches and reduce the risk of allergies.
