Hey guys
I'm a wet shaver for about 2 years now, and I still struggle with the same issue. When I shave against the grain after doing a pass with the grain, multiple spots on my neck and chin start bleeding even though I'm not cutting myself. I can also see that after the pass, the hair isn't really cut off cleanly. This happens particularly often when I shave every 3 days or so. When I wait 1 week after shaving again, this problem does not occur that often.
I think that my skin can't handle the strain of shaving regularly (every 2-3 days), so it spontaneously starts bleeding. This is kind of frustrating for me, as I don't want to wait 1 week until I can shave again without having my neck bleeding. Do you guys know this problem, and is there any hope of dealing with it by doing a proper pre-shave or after-shave? Maybe my skin is just like this, this would be unfortunate.
I currently use the KOSMO safety razor from Mühle and different blades (Feather, Astra, Treet, Derby ...). As a pre-shave lotion, I use the hydrating pre-shave lotion from Edwin Jagger. As an after-shave lotion, I use the Sensitive After Shave Balm from Nivea.
I hope you can help me or just share your own experiences with me.
Have a nice day!
