Shaving question

[mrfrogs]

I hope this doesn't seem too off-topic ;-)
After shaving your face, what is the best way to rinse the razor blade? Cold water, warm water or hot water? Someone told me hot water will damage the blade eventually. Can you share your experiences on this subject?
Thanks !!!

either rinse with cold water or buy an electric shaver

Yup, or use a beard trimmer like me.

OK, this is from a top grooming expert (not me then !):

The area should be prepared by resting a clean, hot, wet towel over the area to be shaved for approx 2 mins to open the pores and soften the hairs.

The shaving cream/foam should be rubbed into the area (preferably with a bristled shaving brush) in a circular motion to make the hairs stand up fro the skin more.

Whilst shaving the blade should be rinsed regularly in warm water.

When finished shaving the skin should be splashed with cold water to close the pores of the skin again to prevent infection.

Razors should be rinsed in tepid (luke warm I think) water and dried (because you dont want to be shaving with a rusty blade).

Razors should preferably only be used upto 3 times for the best shave.

Or just buy electric and get a desperate dan chin !!
Its easier

Make sure you unplug the razor before you run it under the tap. The best advice is always simple

Use Nair, the shaveless hair remover...

This lady had a dog that was very hairy, and even grew enormous amounts of hair in its ears, which got all matted up and caused problems...she would take the dog to the vet each year to have the hair removed from the inside of the ears.

One time, there was a new asst. vet there who told the woman to just get some Nair and apply it with a swab every so often to control the hair groth.

She stopped by the drug store on her way home and got a container of Nair and some cotton swabs.

The guy behind the cash register said..."if you will be using this on your legs, do not shave for a couple of days".

She said politely.."I will not be using it on my legs"

The guy then said, "well, if you will be using it under your arms, do not use a deoderant for a few days"

The lady was now becoming incensed at the personal questions and said:

"I will be using it on my Snouser, if its any of your business"...

The guy just said..."Ok, don't ride your bicycle for a week"

I wish I could help you. I'm a grandfather and ethnic Cantonese. I still only get peach fuzz. I buy a pack of generic razors every two years. Really! I use either Baby Oil or hair conditioner to moisten whatever I have to shave.

Go cold or Go fuzzy.
