Follow along with this video as we learn the basics of shaving.

What you need:

-A razor

-Shaving Cream

-Water

-First of all you have to turn the hot water on and get your razor really wet.

-Just leave the water running because you will be using it continuously as you shave.

-Next, get your hands wet and pat your face down.

-Make sure your hands are dry and put the shaving cream into your palm, rub together with your other hand and apply to face.

-Then wash the shaving cream off of your hands.

-Take your razor and use a down motion across your whole face. Then go back and use an upward motion, so you are going against the grain.

-Remember to keep washing your razor off.

-Finally, you should use an aftershave.

There you go, just follow these step-by-step instructions to know the basics of shaving.
