hai hello im very scared to even ask talk about this on such a wide and public platform but its actually killing me. a regular disposable razor used to work just fine without a problem but my facial hair started growing back in FULL force. i switched to using an epilator and my skin is way to sensitive for those things, every time i shave my face im left with a really bad red rash and literal skin tearing. i used to be happy a lot more often but lately i just cant bring myself to feel a semblance of joy, theres a lot of other things going on in my life rn but this is killing me. i have tried EVERYTHING!!! from the things i’ve previously mentioned, to waxing, one blade safety razors, shaving balms, ipl, hair removal cream, and so much more. i cant post pictures or videos but trust me its BAD. idk if i can afford laser and everyday i just wish i was dead. idk what to do.
First, only shave after a hot shower. The heat will soften your facial hair, and there will be less pulling and friction, resulting in less irritation and burns. Replace your blades regularly, even if it has to be after every shave. You don’t need to push down super hard onto the skin, just try to let it glide across. Finally, use aftershave on your face when you’re done. It burns for a minute, but it will disinfect any cuts or burns you made, making it heal quicker. I recommend TendSkin because it isn’t scented.
Do NOT wax or epilate your face. Beard hair is just embedded too deeply to safely do that. I know, shavings a bitch. It’s why laser is the medical procedure I’m most invested in trying to find now, so I don’t have to deal with it.

You’re welcome. I personally shower and shave at night so I have all the time.
