I'd suggest he start using a straight razor or a double-edge (DE) safety razor. Ingrown hairs are a problem because of the "lift-and-cut" system that disposable razors employ these days. The straight razors and DEs only have one edge so none of th...

I also rock a straight razor and have found that it makes you focus much more on the shave and thus avoid razor burn. You have to take your time(20-30 minutes), which is good in a world where everyone is rushing around. The only difference in our ...

For me, on my work days I shave in the shower to get a close shave as I tend to take hot showers. On my off days, I use my mug and brush at the sink taking my time to get a close shave. I will give my face a break only once a week from shaving as ...

He actually may want to go to his doctor. Most men have in-grown hairs because they've never learned to shave properly, but people who are born with curly hair have it much more difficult. There are a wide array of products for African-American me...

I have a client that has HORRIBLE razor burn and ingrown hairs all the time. His hair (on his head) is quite curly so I assume this is most of the problem. Do any of you have any suggested products or tricks to minimize these issues. SIDE NOTE: I...

Always make time for shopping! If you wear the same business shoes to work everyday or run your shoes need to be replaced after a few hundred miles. For a steady runner thats about once every 3-4 months. AND even men need a little retail therapy n...
