Be gentler with the pressure and know your angles

guess i need to change blades more often cuz they always scrape when i go gentle

Funny seeing this thread now cuz i had my worst shave ever today lol

Still had a little stubble left while also having razor bumps and bleeding from several places

I have no idea how i managed to do it either

I have that problem too. I got the advice to use electric shavers. It worked for a couple months but now I the electric one gives me a bad skin

i heard Hydrocortisone cream (1%) reduces inflammation fast for razorburns (but should be used sparingly)

i use a scrub before shaving and wash my face with the coldest water after

i use Aloe Vera Gel on my razorburns for longterm they help out most of the time

guess my problem was overusing old blades

I shower beforehand, use a very very sharp razor. I used to get heavy razorburns like basically acne, but i feel like my skin just got used to it, so i don't get them anymore. Idk how long you've been shaving, it might be the case that your skin just needs to adapt
