anony. 1 Share Posted November 7, 2007 does anyone else get red spots from shaving with a razor? i can tell if theyre new acne spots or something i caused from shaving. basically theyre little red marks that almost look like acne but they never hurt, theyre always flat, and don't form a head. eventually they just become lighter and go away.

shavingwoes 0 Share Posted November 7, 2007 I had the same thing; switched to an electric razor and they're no longer a problem.FYI, I invested in the Braun self-cleaning model. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dwood 0 Share Posted November 9, 2007 thanks when using an electric shaver, is it better to shave before or after showering? (anyone that uses an electric shave feel free to answer) Lately, I've been shaving before I get in the shower. I get my skin soft with some warm water, then use some remington face saver. It's a powder you can apply before you shave with an electric shaver. I feel that shaving before a shower, then cleaning my face off in the shower works better. I hardly ever get acne anywhere except for my forehead these days. Yeah, so maybe try that. BTW, all I use in the shower is a baby brush. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phate 1 Share Posted November 9, 2007 What it is most likely are ingrown hairs or razor bumps. The occur when the hair is cut below the skin... To prevent this map out the grain of the hair and shave with the grain, or just use an electric and get used to the stubble. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
