I’m mystified as to how to shave smoothly without cutting myself and without razor burn. I’ve never been able to accomplish all three of these in one shave. (This is facial shaving I’m speaking of, as I am male). Not shaving is not an option, as I quickly develop a distinctly unfashionable neck-beard whenever I neglect shaving.
Update, one year later: I can report that shaving during a warm shower with no shaving cream has increased the smoothness of my shaves, has drastically reduced shaving cuts and has eliminated razor burn almost entirely. Thanks, Less Wrong!
$100 from a poor college student. I can’t not afford it.
