Tips:

Shaving in the shower makes hairs soft and opens pores, allowing you to shave effectively and comfortably and reduce outbreaks of razor bumps. For an extremely close shave, try shaving with the grain using very light pressure. Then reapply a coat of shaving cream and shave against the grain.
