Groom Your Way To Success with five shaving guides

Dec. 14, 2011 - PRLog -- [Singapore, October 2011] It’s no secret: First impression counts and looks determine how well a person fairs in career and life.
According to the Dr Gordon Patzer, Dean, Walte E. Heller College of Business, the world’s leading authority on societal biases, in an interview with Men’s Health (UK), well-groomed men are judged to be more talented, honest and intelligent, and hence more likely to have a job. On the same note, it seems that female bosses prefer clean shaven men, survey by AC Nielsen India shows.
To achieve a well-groomed or clean-shaven look, try the following 5 shaving tips and the new Schick Hydro System for the cleanest, closest and most comfortable shave with unexpected hydration.
5 Shaving Tips   Why?
Shave in the evening   Saves time in the morning and allows the skin to rejuvenate during the night.
Shave according to the grain    Shaving against the grain can cause redness, rashes, razor burns and ingrown hairs. Use slow short strokes to give a closer and safer shaving experience.
Rinse the blade in hot water when shaving   Rinse the blade often in hot water when shaving. The hot water cleanses the blade and allows an easier cut.
Use a good shaving cream   Choose a good shaving cream that contains moisturising ingredients like Vitamin E and Aloe Vera as it forms a hydrating layer that softens the hair and helps protect the skin from redness and irritation.
Choose a clean, sharp razor blade shaver   A sharp and well-designed razor gives the closest shave.
