STROPPING
The renewing stroke (also called "stropping") must always be in the same direction, away from the blade edge. Stroke the blade firmly approximately 15 times and make sure to cover the whole blade.
SHAVING TIPS
Saving money again and again feels great, but to improve your shave, try these tips:
-
Apply shaving cream and do a first light "reduction pass" - and then a second pass, shaving the whole face with each pass. You can then follow up with the advanced shaving techniques. A discussion on reduction shaving is to be found HERE
-
This next youtube video will demonstrate advanced shaving techniques, that are sure to improve your shave. The video can be found HERE
These techniques get the best results, taking approximately ten (10) minutes to perform and allows exceptional shaves.
-
Keep the Xtenda-Blade as dry as possible. Although it's treated to withstand moisture, if left in a pool of water or on the bathroom counter, the sharpener may warp. Sanitizing razors by soaking them in alcohol for several minutes, on occasion, is also recommended.
