About This Tool
Razor burn affects the majority of men who shave, yet most assume it is unavoidable. It is not. Razor burn, razor bumps, and ingrown hairs are almost entirely caused by poor technique, dull blades, and bad aftercare. This 6-question quiz analyzes your shaving routine and pinpoints your risk level with actionable fixes. For blade timing, also use our Razor Blade Replacement Calculator.
How to Use
Answer honestly based on what you actually do, not what you know you should do. The quiz takes about 1 minute and returns your risk level plus 6 targeted tips. For a complete post-shave plan, pair your result with our Skincare Routine Builder.
FAQ
What is the difference between ingrown hairs and razor burn?
Razor burn is general redness and stinging caused by friction and dull blades. Ingrown hairs are specific bumps where a shaved hair curls back into the skin. They are more common with curly or coarse hair and from shaving against the grain. Both can be prevented with proper technique. Our Razor Blade Replacement Calculator helps you keep a sharp blade, which reduces both.
Is an electric razor better than a manual razor for sensitive skin?
For very sensitive skin, an electric razor causes less irritation because it does not cut as close. Modern foil shavers provide the closest electric shave. If you prefer manual, a single-blade safety razor with proper prep causes less irritation than multi-blade cartridges. Our Skincare Routine Builder can build a post-shave routine for any razor type.
What should a proper post-shave routine look like?
Rinse with cold water, pat dry, apply alcohol-free aftershave balm with aloe vera or witch hazel, then moisturize. On non-shaving days, exfoliate gently to prevent ingrowns. The entire routine takes 60 seconds. For a full daily skincare plan that includes post-shave care, use our Skincare Routine Builder.
