Razor Burn

I get razor burn on my neck pretty bad every time I shave. Anyone know of a good way to treat/prevent this?

 

I tend to get it worst between my nose and mouth. I find that going slower and using fewer and lighter strokes with the razor helps.

 

If you use a straight razor get sweet almond oil. It's the best moisturizer and massage oil.

 

hot moist towel to the face neck for 15min. its the old mans way of shaving.. like in the movies with the hot towels. lather with a good soap. try better grade razors ..

 

Not a preventative but for the burn itself, splash some witch hazel on it.

 

Where do I find straight razors or good quality razors?? All I can find in stores are the shitty 5 blade or 3 blade things.

 

I don't really feel the irritation, it just gets all bumpy and looks like shit

 

to many razors will burn ya. might try a brand single blade. all ive ever used.

 

I've been told to use single blade before.....but I've never been able to find any. Where do you buy your razors?

 

I'm not certain if I can post links but look up a place called Lehman's. It's a farm supply store with pretty much everything. They have great straight razors there for a good price considering how expensive they usually are.

 

Witch Hazel should take the swelling and redness down.
It's the active ingredient in Prep H.
If it's good enough to take down a 'rhoid, it's good enough for the RB.

Thanks for the advice everyone
