As someone explained, ingrown hairs happen when the hair doesn't actually break the surface of the skin, the most common cause for them is shaving with poor gear or incorrectly. Basically you shave and instead of cutting the hair, the razor pulls it slightly out from the hair follicle before actually cutting it. So when the hair grows back, if it's even slightly off from it's previous position, there's a good chance it won't break through the skin and end up as an ingrown hair.

Some people also have naturally very curly hair which then ends up causing much more ingrown hairs than most others. If they just happen even without shaving then the issue is a bit more difficult to manage and there's actually very little you can do about it. However if they happen after shaving, then solution do exist.

I'm going to detail some things you can do about your shaving routine that should help with ingrown hairs.

First of all, get yourself a double edge razor. If you want something cheap you can get one for about 3$ from Amazon, for something a bit better and more expensive the Edwin jagger DE89 is an excellent razor. There are literally hundreds of other options out there, you can often find DE razors from antique shops, flea markets or just your parents/grandparents place. And vintage razors are often extremely good if they are in decent shape.

Next you'll need some blades, I recommend buying a sampler pack again this one is about 11$. The reason you want a sample pack is because certain blades work better for certain people, so you can try them out and find the blade that fits you.

Now why on earth would you spend the whopping 15$ on technology from 70's when you have the new gilette 20 blade razor that is supersharp technology masterpiece? Mostly because it's not supersharp, well..It kinda is but it won't stay that way. The problem is that blades go dull, and when blades go dull they don't cut well, when they don't cut well they tug the hair and you end up with ingrown hairs. The easy solution is to change the cartridge often, but the cartridges are really goddamn expensive so you don't want to do that. DE blades? You can get a years supply for 20-30$, change it every 1-3 shaves and you can ensure the blade stays sharp and cuts well.

Someone also suggested exfoliating the skin, but you can kill two birds with one stone. You can get yourself a shaving brussh, something simple like the Omega 10077 it's a good, cheap starter brush it's a bit on the harder side so you can easily use it to exfoliate your skin prior to shaving. With that you can get a tube of Proraso shaving cream which is leaps and bounds better than the stuff you get from a supermarket in a can. Then to top it off get yourself some nice aftershave to calm your skin after shaving.

Now you'll also need to change your entire routine a bit. Slap a blade on your new razor, fill your sink up with some hot water and let your brush soak in the water. While your brush soaks rinse the areas you want to shave with plenty of hot water, this helps to open up the pores and soften your hair prior to shaving. If you want you can use some pre-shave to try and keep the irritation to your skin to minimum. Now you'll need to prep some lather, you can use a bowl, your hand or just do it right where you want to shave Here's a good guide on what you can do. The basic idea is to make sure your brush isn't exactly dripping wet but still wet, get about an almond size drop of the shave cream, then just mix up the cream like you'd be mixing eggs, add drops of water if needed. Once you have some lather, apply it in the places you want. You should use rather brisk circular motions, these help to prop your hair up and makes them easier to shave. Applying cream with hands usually has the bad effect of pushing your hair flat on your skin which makes shaving harder.

Now you have some lather so you'll need to shave. There are two main things to keep in mind with a DE: Blade angle and pressure.

Basically there is an ideal blade angle and finding one will take some time. However there is an entire wiki page dedicated to this. The second one is pressure, with a cartridge razor you ten dto press it against your skin, because the blades are dull and you try to shave as well as possible. With a DE, you should not put any pressure on your skin. The blade is sharp enough to cleanly cut the hair with zero pressure. Getting a hang of it is gonna take a week or so, but once you do you will consistently get better shaves. And be sure to rinse your blade often with the water you have in your sink, you don't want too much cream clogging the blade up.

The basic three pass DE shave includes one pass with the grain of the hair, another across the grain and the final pass is done very carefully against the grain and only if needed or you absolutely want to do it. Shaving against the grain gives you the best shave, but also irritates your skin more and is much more likely to end up with reddish skin or small cuts. So you fist shave everything with the grain, then rinse, apply lather, shave across the grain, rinse, and shave against the grain if needed.

Finally rinse with cool water, dry yourself up and apply aftershave. For other post-shave products you can get yourself an Alum bloc. It's a natural astringent that closes up most small razor nicks. After your final pass and after rinsing your face, grab the block and just massage it on the areas where you shaved, then rinse your face again. Another excellent product is witch hazel. It's again an all natural skin care product, it helps to cool, refresh and revitalize your skin. You can also use it daily even if you don't shave. Personally I apply witch hazel after I rinse off the alum. Then wait a few minutes and apply after shave.

Doing all that should help to decrease skin irritation and reduce ingrown hairs. And those products are just a dip in he ocean, there are hundreds of soaps, aftershaves, creams and all manner of other things you can get cheap and easy. Check out /r/wicked_edge for more.

First, please read this MSDS for Clubman Talcum Powder, which is required to be provided to people who are expected to be continually exposed to the product. Take notice of the statement Long-term excessive exposures may cause talcosis, a pulmonary fibrosis which may lead to severe and permanent damage to the lung - possibly resulting in disability or death. In my profession, I see people who are permanently disabled and/or need lung transplants because of exposure to things like silica dust.

I am familiar with the scent of Clubman and agree that it's fabulous, but I wouldn't smell it every day because I also like to inhale and exhale. Once a week at the barber is fine, crop dusting your clothes with it every day is not.

Get yourself some Pinaud Clubman Aftershave instead. It's only $6, will be much more wearable and noticeable, and your lungs will thank you.

If you want an actual cologne, try:

Canoe for Men

Helmut Lang Eau de Cologne

Speick Shaving Stick - $7.95

For a total of $31.93 (not including shipping and taxes).

However these items from West Coast Shaving comes out to be $28.74 (not including shipping and taxes)

My friend I’d be doing it a disservice if I didn’t tell you that I had it in my Amazon cart when my girlfriend gave me a sampler pack of aftershaves with it included. The sampler will last me a good bit and I still immediately ordered the bottle on Amazon afterword.

It’s like the quintessential barber smell (I believe a lot of barbers use the powder on their brushes when they get all the hair off your neck). I happen to love that smell and I’ve yet to meet anyone that doesn’t. I’ve lurked in r/wicked_edge for a bit and I often see people sharing the same sentiment. My father payed me a visit today so I showed him my wet shaving gear and he asked me if he could use some of the Pinaud.

I will say, I say it at my local CVS and it was $10, on Amazon it’s $4.80 with prime shipping. My recommendation, buy a lifetime supply lol. But then again I’m also still coming down from the best shave ever so I may be a bit biased haha.

Witch Hazel is awesome, antiseptic and anti-inflammatory, I even use it on bug bites, stops them from itching right away. The alum is also an mild antiseptic, may stop bleeding on very small nicks, but not big nicks. You probably don't need both + an aftershave, but I enjoy using them all. I like old school aftershaves such as Clubman Pinaud which is dirt cheap. I just got Royall Lyme which i feel is similar but more "refined". I've used Razorock aftershave wax which I didn't love but didn't hate. Something else I use which I don't see much discussion here is this moisturizer, I can't use any other moisturizer, it keeps my face from feeling tight, has zero "greasy-ness", plus adds and SPF.

Sorry to hear about the acne, pal. My personal favorite is Clubman. It's inexpensive and has a classic scent that's not too strong. http://www.amazon.com/Clubman-Pinaud-After-Shave-Lotion/dp/B000053L6Y/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1377171471&sr=8-2&keywords=clubman+pinaud

Book - $11

Razor - $28

Brush - $7

Aftershave - $6

Soap - $7

Blades - $13 /100

Alum - $6

Box - $8


That is the setup OP has except a generally more popular aftershave scent, a different brush, and a block of alum that I find a little easier to use.

This is about $75 per person.

Edit: Personally I would probably go with /u/papander 's suggestion of Maggards. It is not what OP did, but Maggard's is a top notch retailer with really good product. For even less hassle just grab as many starter kits as you like, and add aftershave from walmart. You can't go wrong with any selection on the drop down lists as Maggards does not sell junk.

This is an EXCELLENT beginner's set. Razor, Brush, Stand. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles, but the brush is fantastic (I have entirely switched to this brush, over some other more "fancy" brushes) and the razor is a good weight with a good medium length. Plus, having a tidy stand is bonus points.

This is one type of soap/mug set.

And this is another soap/mug set. I personally prefer this type of bowl. It's also much heavier than it looks (I think it's ceramic). The brush is crap, though.

This is a cheap, good-smelling aftershave. But it's alcohol based, so he might not like it (stings slightly).

This gets you nearly everything for under your budget. The two items I'd say are missing are available at Wal-Mart for less than three dollars combined. You need the pre-shave oil (Shave Secret, $1.50 at my local WalMart) and a styptic pencil ($1.15 at my local WalMart).

Even after these, we're still around the $90 mark, and these items will last for literally years (except the consumables, of course).

There's your complete set, minus blades. The purchase of blades is a rather personal affair, though, and I'd recommend a sampler pack. There are literally dozens of sampler packs available. Here's one. Bear in mind, however, that most people can do three to six full shaves (i.e., the entire face) using ONE blade.

One piece of advice: If you want him to enjoy it, don't skimp on the brush. In my opinion, probably seconded by a majority of wet-shavers, the brush is going to be the single most important deciding factor for a noobie who isn't purchasing these things for himself in determining whether he likes the process or not. There's virtually no doubt that he'll like the results.

Does this help?

My skin is pretty oily, and i love this stuff. Always get compliments on the scent if a woman is actually close enough to smell it. I haven't shaved in almost 3 months, but i still dab a little on my beard if i'm going out.

I use unscented deodorant, so far my favorite is Liquid Rock by Kiss My Face. My daily scent comes from my aftershave, most usually Pinaud by Clubman.

u/traddad · 1 pointr/wicked_edge

Yeah, I agree with everyone about the nice A/S. All good suggestions.

Maybe in the future after I see if he "gets" this.

I might show him some of the Amazon reviews for Clubman Pinard ("While merely holding this bottle to pay for it, I impregnated the lady at the cash register when her eyes met mine.") or the one by Ron Swanson. https://www.amazon.com/Clubman-Pinaud-After-Shave-Lotion/dp/B000053L6Y

I'll tell him Pinard is too dangerous for him to handle - wait till you're older. In the meantime, I'm having too much fun teasing him about the AXE. ;)

Don't forget some smooth aftershave. I recommend picking up some of this and you can find it at CVS or I think Walgreen's carries it.
