Shaving Steps

Boys should ask an adult or older boy who knows how to shave to help guide them. First, wash your face with soap and warm water. Then, lather your face with shaving cream or gel. Shave with the grain of the hair; shaving upward can irritate your face. Go slowly and don’t press too hard, or you might cut yourself. Carefully shave each area twice.

Afterward, wash the area you shaved with warm water and soap. Use a face lotion or aftershave to help prevent dry skin.

Remember: do not use dull razors; you could accidentally cut your face, and a dull blade might irritate your skin.
