Shaving with a razor, also known as dry shaving, is a traditional and popular method among men.

NECESSARY PRODUCTS BEFORE Shaving

To limit scratches as well as get a close shave, men should wash their faces with warm water (about 35 to 37 degrees Celsius) with facial cleanser and use specialized shaving cream/foam.
