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

Cisfemme here, but with hormone issues: schick intuition. That little balm bar is amaaaziinggg.

Ooh, thanks. I'll look out for those.

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 :)

I recommend safety razors. Cheap, easy, and gives a close shave

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.

[–] flora_explora@beehaw.org 9 points 1 month ago

Yes, that's what I've been using for many years as well :)

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!
