Perfectly shaved?
Moisten the shaving zone – the face and neck – with warm to hot water. Make a lather from shaving soap or cream with the brush, apply in gentle strokes, then allow to take effect for one or two minutes.
Without applying too much pressure, shave off the beard using a sharp blade. At which point you begin and whether you shave “against the grain” can vary individually – and is ultimately a matter of experience. Rinse the skin with fresh water; after-shave, nurturing cream or balsam serve as an added treat.
After shaving, rinse out the brush with clear water, shake out the surplus with a loose wrist movement and hang it up to dry with the hair facing down. The perfect helper: a complete shaving set.
