How To Shave (7-Minute Easy Guide)

About this video

Centeno presents seven shaving techniques designed to improve shave quality and skin health. He covers blade protection, understanding hair growth patterns, shaving technique variations, pre-shave preparation, timing strategies, and methods for addressing common shaving problems like cuts and the lack of proper shaving cream.

Key takeaways

  • Centeno recommends always protecting razor blades with their plastic covers or original containers to prevent warping and accidental cuts
  • Centeno argues that shaving with the grain initially, then against the grain on a second pass with reapplied cream, produces the closest shave with minimal irritation
  • Centeno advises shaving after at least three minutes in a warm shower to soften facial hair and improve cut quality
  • Centeno suggests shaving the night before important appearances to allow skin recovery time, noting this works for approximately 90% of men
  • Centeno recommends using shorter strokes rather than long strokes to maintain control and reduce cuts and scrapes
