How often do you shave?

Exfoliate before shaving and use a pre-shave oil to help reduce the irritation. Also make sure to shave WITH the hair there, otherwise you get irritation and bumps.

Best blade hands down Gillette Fusion...be careful...they are sharp and light weight...amazing shave...I am an Art of the Shave guy, and their products with Fusion is unreal...I may have to check out the dollar club deal after this review

I like to get the blade soaked in hot water before and then use extremely hot water while shaving. Supposedly, the blades are thinner than a surgeons knife....

After watching this I use some of his techniques. I use a hot cloth first, then a cold cloth afterwards. I switched to Neutrogena Shaving Creme and use a Mach 3 razor. Sometimes I will apply bump patrol as well after shaving. I have reduced the razor bumps and irritation I would get significantly.

I always used to hack up or irritate my neck shaving.
I highly recommend an after shave product called Tend Skin. It is a liquid you put on a cotton wipe and apply to where you shaved. It drastically reduces in-grown hairs and irritability on the neck. I then follow with an after shave.

I like Nivea for men products, but for special occasions use my Clinique for men products. The Clinique pre shave scrub is incredible- best out there

I'll throw another one out there for safety razors. However, personally I use Feather blades over Wilkinson or any other brands because they are the sharpest blades you can get for a safety razor.

Feather blades are the best I have used for a safety razor.

Get yourself a nice badger hair brush and a shave soap and you are set for a very long time. Don't buy your brush from Art of Shaving as they are very overpriced though they do have quality products. There are many places online where you can get a good quality shave setup for very little money.

Since this is in no way detailing related I dont think there will be too much of an issue posting an external link but this is one of the best places I have found to order all of my shaving supplies, the Autogeek of the shaving world.

My personal favorite is the shave soaps from the Razorock line.

On a daily basis I use my safety razor but every other week or so I take my time and pull out the straight razor.

Hey Flash!

Yeah, I took a hiatus for a little bit, but I'm back and will be just as active as before

I took a hiatus for a while too. When I came back it was a whole new crowd! Always good to see a familiar face/name
