I never used to get shaving cuts before E. Can’t finish hair removal soon enough.

    Hm, I’ve been shaving wet for ever and have been on E for ~5 years. No cuts unless I’m really not paying attention. It is a skill you can learn :)

        That’s what I use, in fact. Warm water on face, apply foam. Stretch skIn lightly taught, and a single pass with the grain. I’ve been doing it this way for decades, but recently I always end up with a cut or two somewhere. Should probably just go a bit more slowly.

          I’ve found that whenever I cut myself, it’s either that my lather is too watery, or that my blade needs to be replaced.

    Share your wet shave routine! We might be able to give you suggestions.

    I’ve got sensitive skin and thick beard hairs, I’ve tried a lot to get a good shave routine going

      The knife I have laying around, water and mild patience leaves me with more cuts than obvious bits of hair if I can’t use my razor.

    Get some of those cute blemish stickers and put those over the cuts if it happens! Just a cutie with a cute blemish!
