INFO:

🪒Shaving against the grain means that you are cutting the hair in the opposite direction to its natural growth pattern. While this can provide a closer shave, it can also cause the hair to become cut too short, which can increase the likelihood of it becoming trapped beneath the skin's surface and causing an ingrown hair. Ingrown hairs occur when the hair follicle becomes clogged with dead skin cells or other debris, causing the hair to grow sideways or curl back into the skin. Shaving against the grain can create sharp, jagged edges on the hair, making it easier for it to pierce the skin and cause an ingrown hair. Additionally, shaving too closely can cause irritation to the skin, leading to inflammation and redness that can also contribute to the development of ingrown hairs. To reduce the risk of ingrown hairs, Apply a moisturizing shaving cream, shave in the direction of hair growth and avoid shaving too closely or choose alternative hair removal options.
