Start by washing your face with warm water to soften the facial hair and open the pores. This step is crucial for achieving a close, comfortable shave. Applying a pre-shave oil can also help reduce friction and protect the skin.
Using a shaving brush, apply a rich lather of shaving cream or soap to your face. The brush helps lift the hairs and exfoliate the skin, preparing it for the razor. A thick, creamy lather ensures the razor glides smoothly over your skin.
After shaving, rinse your face with cold water to close the pores. Apply an aftershave balm or lotion with soothing ingredients like aloe vera or witch hazel to calm the skin and prevent irritation. Moisturizing is essential to keep the skin hydrated and healthy.

The safety razor by Brent Berkeley® is the go-to razor for true gentlemen. An elegant, classic design where ancient shaving traditions and modern-day technology have been harmoniously fused together into a single, timeless essential.
The razor is crafted of materials of the highest quality. The dense, bass frame that runs through the entire length of the razor, makes the razor not only incredibly durable, but promotes smooth handling while shaving and ensures a weighty feel to it.
The deep-red handle forms the heart of the razor and is created from a distinct branch of the finest type of sandalwood. Being one of the world’s most elegant and luxurious woods, sandalwood is a type of wood that is worthy of its owner.
The wood has been sanded by hand and finished with a sealing oil. This extends the lifespan of the razor and protects it from water-damage, allowing it to withstand even the roughest shaving conditions.
The head features a polished, mildly rounded, closed comb. This particular shape promotes a smooth, comfortable shaving experience and reduces the chance of accidental cuts, without compromising on shave-quality. Naturally, the head has been laser-engraved with the signature Brent Berkeley wolf logo as an emblem of quality.
With the safety razor of Brent Berkeley, you can start your day in style; anywhere, anytime.

The safety razor is making a strong comeback in the world of grooming, and for good reason. As more men seek a closer shave and a more sustainable option, safety razors have become a popular alternative to disposable cartridges and electric shavers. But what exactly makes a safety razor the superior choice? In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore everything you need to know about safety razors, from their benefits to tips on how to use them effectively. If you’re considering making the switch, this article will provide you with all the insights you need.
A safety razor is a shaving tool that features a protective device positioned between the edge of the blade and the skin. This design allows for a close shave while significantly reducing the risk of cuts and nicks. Safety razors have been around for over a century and were the primary method of shaving until the advent of cartridge razors. Today, they are experiencing a resurgence due to their efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and environmental benefits.
Safety razors are renowned for delivering a closer, smoother shave compared to disposable razors. The single blade of a safety razor cuts hair cleanly at the surface of the skin, reducing the risk of ingrown hairs and razor burn. According to a study published by the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, men who use safety razors report less irritation and better overall skin health compared to those who use multi-blade cartridge razors.
Safety razors give you more control over your shave. The weight of the razor and the ability to adjust the angle of the blade allow for greater precision, making it easier to navigate tricky areas like under the nose or along the jawline. This control also reduces the likelihood of nicks and cuts, especially after you’ve mastered the technique.
Yes, a safety razor is often recommended for those with sensitive skin. The single blade cuts cleanly and reduces the risk of irritation, ingrown hairs, and razor burn that are common with multi-blade razors.
It’s recommended to replace the blade after every 5-7 shaves, or sooner if you notice any tugging or discomfort. A sharp blade ensures a clean, smooth shave and minimizes the risk of irritation.
Absolutely. Safety razors can be used for head shaving, but they require careful technique due to the curvature of the scalp. Take your time, use plenty of lather, and shave in short, controlled strokes.
For the best results, use a high-quality shaving cream or soap that provides ample lubrication. Traditional shaving creams or soaps are often recommended because they produce a rich, protective lather that helps the razor glide smoothly over the skin.
While safety razors require more skill and attention to technique, they are not inherently more dangerous. In fact, many users find that they experience fewer nicks and cuts once they master the proper shaving technique.
There is a learning curve, but with practice, using a safety razor becomes second nature. Start slowly, focus on your technique, and you’ll soon enjoy the benefits of a superior shave.
