Is a multi blade razor bad for necks? I use a 5 blade Gillette Fusion ProGlide.

Every damn time I end up getting a few cuts and some wicked razor burn. I don't remember having this issue when I was younger but I only used those disposable single blade yellow Bic razors back then

I got that blade. It sucked right out of the box, like they forgot to actually make blades out of the metal. 4 blade worked as normal though.

Wash your face before shaving, preferably a facial scrub with a mild exfoliating agent.

I only shave my face with a fresh razor. Wash my face before shaving with soap and uses plenty of shaving cream.

I've tried just shaving down, and just shaving up. Same results.

I use a Gilette 5 blade. I stopped because I thought it was fucking with my skin.

I fixed it by
1) changing from a gel to a foam (I wet the foam then apply, I'm not sure it's really any different from gel)
2) I made sure to smooth all the hairs downward after I applied the foam. Before, I'd do a really intense scrub to get the suds in, but without smoothing it down, the result was creating a bunch of hairs everywhere pointing up and right and left that fought with the razor. Thus serious razor burn.

I use a nice electric, but if I really want the smooth no hair at all, I'll follow it up with that same fusion pro glide. Don't go against the grain on the first pass

Which electric do you use?

I do 1 already. I'll try 2 when it grows back next week.

Or maybe that's it - perhaps I'm waiting too long between shaves.

Why is laser hair removal so expensive
