  2. Exercise before you shave so your sweat will not irritate your freshly shaved skin.
  3. If it's common for you to get ingrown hairs and razor bumps from shaving then ONLY shave with the grain instead of shaving with & against the grain for a close shave.
  4. Switching to an electric shaver may help you get a better shave that's free of razor burn, razor cuts, razor bumps and ingrown hairs (or vice versa)

  6. Try not to shave every single day to reduce ingrown hairs & razor bumps.
