Electric vs Blade

The blade cut is far more superior over the electric cut in achieving the clean close shave. It scrapes dead skin cells off your face and the blade trims the hair at an angle, which leaves almost no trace of the hair once you shave. The electric razor cuts the hair flat and leaves the hair cut like a tree stump, so your face will have more visible traces of hair after you shave.

Mustache Makeover
If you choose the blade to shave, you have to learn how to use it. There are many factors that will make a clean close shave smoother and more comfortable, so follow these tips:
- Lather up your whiskers nice and wet so they cut easier
- Use warm water and not hot water or your skin will become puffy
- Using shaving cream or gels and not soap which dries the skin and dulls the blade
- Rinse your face with cool water
- Shave in the direction of your hair growth before you shave against it

- Shave with your face dry
- Don’t press hard
- Clean the razor every time you use it
- Replace the blades every year

Razor burn is an actual rash that you can get from either the blade or electric cut. Just make sure to not press to hard when you’re shaving. Your facial skin is one of the most sensitive areas of your body and it can become irritated very easily if you don’t take care of it.
