Direction of shaving
On your first pass, only shave in the direction your hair grows and if you have very sensitive skin, don't shave upward at all. While going 'against the grain' may get you a closer shave, it also increases the possibility of irritation, nicks, and cuts. Once your hairs are already very short, and the skin is warm and lubricated, going against the direction of hair growth is much safer. 'If you'd still like a closer shave, reapply the gel and shav, again against the direction of the hair growth.
