Incredible Work

I Love This Channel

Great Advice

Already Know most

Surprised how Right I Am

Still Need Advice on some Manual Razor Tactics

Thank You

@MathieuDeVinois

As I do appreciate the information in that video. Most of those shaving videos gave me goosebumps. And, not for the right reason. – dumping my cartridge razor for a DE-razor was the best thing I ever did. For my skin, purse and comfort. Meanwhile I mostly use my straight razor.

@GigaDavy91

i solved my problems with a braun electric razor… no more irritation. and i used to get irritation after every shave even with a new cartridge.

@volker4493

Thank you Preston, to shave with cold water was a total game changer and gave me a fantastic shaving experience.

@danielhalachev4714

I've noticed that using a balm containing alum actually makes the recovery process for my skin worse.

@christopherhume8896

I only shave once a week so I have got into a good routine. Hair trimmer with no guide to get rid of the growth, warm shower, shave with 2 sided razor. My neck glows bright red if I shave too often but thankfully my job doesn't require it.

@davestevens4193

Tips from my fancy Beverly Hills dermatologist. No shaving cream. Use Cetaphil gentle skin cleanser. Use single blade razor.

@anthonyd.1428

I'll try some of your tips.

@handle_unknown

I think I'll just employ the technique of growing Nicolai II -facial hair!

@DreamyBongos

I can only do two passes and my neck has to follow certain directions.

@mortallobster897

I switched to wet shaving two years ago. I use a glycerin based soap with a badger hair brush and a safety razor with an extra long handle all after a hot shower to soften the follicle. That is what works for me.

@goclick

Preston looks great with a full beard

@truthofthematter2892

I found that feather blades, in my Mühle r41 help reduce irritation. I was using Astra's, and I was getting some decent irritation on my neck.

@evanhall6045

I would love a product round up of Proraso 😊

@scottieferguson2295

Just use an electric razor.

@Revlemmon

I would also say use a quality preshave oil. For sensitive skin every extra layer of lubrication will help protect the skin.

@unknown_nub2173

Preston looks good with a beard.

@ZoomZoom-ng6sn

I've got Florsheim Shoes just like Preston. ———Most Florsheim shoes are Bologna assembled style but they really aren't bad.

@raidenstark315

I have a better just get laser depilation and get rid of your beard.

I'm trying to get rid of mine once for all

@afridahamad

Could you please make best Double Edged Razor video

@SzymoniX005

You nailed it with this shaving series

@EasyMac308

I've been using a $10 Amazon razor with Shark Super Chromes (after getting a sampler and testing about ten different kinds). I'd love to see a review of different handles.

@thomaskelly393

Just a correction: the alcohol featured in the video, cetyl alcohol, is not an alcohol that will dry your skin out. It is a hydrating compound and found in many balms, conditioners, and creams. Alcohols such as denatured ethanol and isopropanol will dry your skin out. Fatty alcohols such as stearyl alcohol, cetearyl alcohol, and the aforementioned cetyl alcohol are hydrating.

@sangamp6292

Try shaving with Curd.

It's best alternative for shaving creams providing natural lather and moisturizer

@mattshaffer5935

I’d love a safety razor video! Specifically Henson Razors.

@GravesRWFiA

I think i see why you just had the 'how to get out blood stains' video

@raygipson8896

You look good with a beard brother👍

@mikdukevich9838

Amazing video, always a hit with you guys !

@DA-uv1fs

Or use an electric razor!

@experienceexperte3096

12:03 for me strangely, shaving more often was much more adequate for my skin

@brandonbandstra226

Great video coming from a redhead!

@un.garcon

Merkur 37C + Feather blades work great for my sensitive skin. Please do a video about DE shavers!

@elijuarez5521

0:45 who else thought that was Mr bubbles bro 💀🦗… My bad for dissing you I just started at 0:45 just pointing it out

@eirikterland9200

Can you make a video on how to pack for a vacation?

@simon330

Would love to see a comparison of razors!

@Fonicblade

I liked the video very informative. I recently bought a proraso shaving cream after viewing one of your videos and i was impressed by the change it had on my experience when shaving compared to the wilkinson sword shaving soap i was using before.

And i would like to see a video on razors because i'm interested in purchasing a DE razor that's a bit more aggressive than the King C. Gillette or Wilkinson sword DE razor that i've been using since they are rather mild, although i think that the Gillette is milder than the wilkinson sword.

@boratsagdiev5707

I really want to move on from cartridge razors, but I'm afraid the but I'm afraid the closest shave I could get to BBS without irritation would be about the same as what I would get with an electric shaver.
Any thoughts?

@plantbased2846

yes, electric shaver & techniques

@JacobsP

We would definetly love to see a video about razors. Thank you!

@SylvainDuford

Can't believe you didn't mention the most important factor: NEVER shave AGAINST the grain in your sensitive areas.

@CallOfCutie69

Do laser hair removal. No, it’s not only for girls. Wiping out facial hair entirely might be impossible/very hard for men, but it will reduce hair hardness significantly, which makes shavings rarer and easier. Irritation and cuts go away. I, personally, don’t like recent years’ trend of men growing a particular type of facial hair, like Mr. Schlueter here. It’s a personal opinion, but being clean-shaved suited him much more.

@lhommeaudacieux

I also have very sensitive skin. Tried many razor blades and feather still works best with my thick curly beard hair.

@andreaspeters3773

😂 When i see these guys with a real beard go against the grain on first pass 🤦🏻
By the way, the DE i love most is an EdwinJagger with a Feather blade,… for me, great👌and i leather up directly on the face.
My tip is
– don't spare with lather for each pass
– the lather should be on for 2-3 minutes
– start with the grain and don't try to remove all stubbles in the first pass
For me it's ok to shave all two or three days and i go 2 passes… with and across, not against… is good enough.
Special : i had dry skin and i cream, cream and nothing helped. So i start to use nothing… the first days my skin was very tight and itchy.
But then the "miracle" happens… my skin starts more and more to protect itself. Now i use nothing and my skin starts to feel creamed after ~20 min….. but only with a real soap, not so good with canned stuffs….

@thatguy6171

Good to know as a woman

@vyoufinder

For years, I would get razor burn. I tried all kinds of creams, pre-shaves, etc., but nothing worked. Finally I came up with the perfect technique: Wash in warm water, cool rinse, towel dry. Then wait 20 or 30 minutes while getting dressed, etc. and come back and dry shave. People think it would hurt, but the truth is it's a lot better than wet shaving, at least for me. Plus you get used to it. The key is the dry skin has to be all the way dry. No sweating or it won't cut right, and no skipping days or it will be too long to cut right too.

@dejuanmcguire9348

The irony that I am playing this video while shaving!

@gregchandler900

I could shave with a chunk of glass. I definitely don’t have sensitive skin

@gregchandler900

Throw out your cartridge razors!! They are the absolute WORST!! Learn to use a decent safety razor or straight razor
