  • Summary

  • We discuss the age-old debate of shaving with or against the grain. We argue that shaving with the grain is the most comfortable option as it reduces the risk of irritation, bumps, and razor burn. Shaving against the grain, while providing a closer shave, can lead to ingrown hairs and uncomfortable redness. We then provides practical tips on how to achieve a close shave with the grain by using a single-blade razor, preparing the skin with warm water and shaving oil, and applying aftershave to soothe the skin. Ultimately, we emphasise that the best shaving method is the one that suits individual preferences and promotes healthy skin.
