Shaving Nicks and Cuts

2. Common Shaving Problems - Nicks and Cuts

The last thing you want is to look like you got in a brutal brawl with your blade. Slicing and dicing can occur when your razor is too dull or alternatively, when it’s fresh out of the gate and too much pressure is being applied. As usual, make sure the blade is sharp and go easy on the handle -- it should glide effortlessly. And if the occasional cut occurs, skip the toilet paper and reach for a styptic pencil or a dab of rubbing alcohol on the skin.
