"Hi I'm Joyce with Major League Trim, I will be speaking on behalf of Expert Village in this next clipping we would be talking about the straight razor shave. Now that he is nice and warm you want to take the towel off of his face and you have already pat him dry. You are going to use the oils that you have already put on his face and incorporated with the shaving cream. A lot of barbers like to use a hot lather, in this case we are just going to use a regular shaving cream. It is the consistency of a creamy substance rather than a gel. There are all different types of shaving cream; some of them are gel, some of them are cream. You just choose the one that is best for your skin type and we already assist our plan, we know that he has very sensitive skin.

So you want to rub that in really good, get that in there. You want to keep his face warm and moist. I alway put water on my hand to help keep it moist and spread around properly. This would also prevent drag when you put the water you don't want drag cause then you have razor burn. "
