Ever try getting that smooth close shave that you want, only to get nasty razor bumps?  Not only are these bumps  unsightly, they can also scar. 

Razor bumps are formed when the sharp point of a newly cut hair penetrates the skin instead of growing out of the skin.  These bumps are found more commonly in people with curly hair, as the hair naturally tends to curl when it is cut.

Things you can do to prevent razor bumps 

• Shave with the grain
• Shave after taking a hot shower or bath, which will soften the hair
• Use a conditioner on your face before shaving
• Do not apply too much pressure when shaving
• Use a moisturizing aftershave
