Why can't you turn on the electric shaver while charging. How to troubleshoot an electric shaver. How to choose the right shape

The review is not so much about the "battery" (by the way the batteries on the link are bad), how much about how to extend the life of an electric shaver, an electric toothbrush and other similar devices :) Therefore, “there could be any” in place of the batteries - it was just MORE lucky;) ... First, a little about batteries, then about their use ...
In order to avoid all kinds of misunderstandings, I attach

screen for buying batteries.


Arrived in an envelope. Each battery is in a personal bag :) I bought 8 bags as a bonus;)


The weight of a single battery is a bit light, of course ...

In comparison with the same GP with almost half the capacity ... although of course it is not lithium, and whether the comparison by weight is correct - I'm not sure :)))

Original:))

Two contenders for replacing old batteries


Looking ahead (to finish with an overview of the "battery" itself), I will say that the capacity pumped into a discharged battery turned out to be 700mAh during the first charge, which is three times less than the one declared by the seller. During the tests, it was revealed that the purchased batteries are worse than the "tired" originals.

And now, finally, about the use of such household batteries to replace the "tired" during the work in electric shavers and other similar devices that can be reanimated.

I want to note right away that two types of batteries are usually used in electric shavers (and not only). As a rule, if one is installed, then it is lithium, if two, then nickel-metal hydride.

A Panasonic ES-RT31 electric shaver was purchased quite a long time ago, and it was not that it was "dear as a memory" - but it suited me in everything and everything was efficient except for the fairly "stuck" native batteries, which it makes no sense to buy in the original because of the cost ( on ebay, for example, about $ 18, and shaving once or twice and charging again began to strain (one plus appeared, which began to charge in a few minutes :)
As Panasonic often likes to do, standard batteries have a very specific look and some incompatibility with those on the market, but this is AT FIRST glance!


Similar batteries (have at least) Panasonic
ES6002, ES6003, ES7101, ES7102, ES7109, ES7036, ES7038, ES-RT31, ES-RT51, ES-RT81
some Philips and other electric shavers.

Let's try to replace our shaver batteries with standard ones.
First, we disassemble the electric shaver ...
To disassemble this type of case, you need to unscrew the bolt from the bottom, remove the plastic cover in the place of the charging connector, then divide the outer case in two, it is simply latched on.




Then we unscrew the bolts from both sides, I must say a lot of them were screwed by the manufacturers :)


we get to the compartment with the batteries ... they are inserted through the rubber bands
I still did not understand the reasons for this design ...




Since the seals cannot ensure the tightness of the gum in such a place, plus on the cover of the first removed there are "plugs" of these very holes, therefore the tightness should not suffer during the revision


we take out the block, on the reverse side there is the "charging" itself


For fans of electronic filling, we increase ...

Why in such a form factor the "original" is produced I do not know, as an option in order to buy originals and thereby earn money on components. Or the batteries themselves have "something" different from their simple counterparts. For example, it was assumed that the long pin on "+" is some kind of overheating protection (like a fuse). Although it has a hole in the center, it looks like a pipe….

Well, we will not change to the original, so we will proceed to the direct replacement (alteration) for the standard ones.

We try to insert a standard battery (it doesn't matter who the manufacturer is - the dimensions are the same), we see that the positive terminal, in principle, is normally pressed against the contact, great ...


We look at minus ... and see ... about an ambush! : (contact does not reach the battery.


Bend the contacts slightly with a screwdriver

Cut out the pads for the contacts to select the gap. This time I came across a piece of plastic from a broken SIM card, usually I open them all kinds of tablets, smartphones - instead of a mediator in field conditions :)


put one piece per contact on each battery ...


Got up "just"!
Then we collect everything in reverse order ... special attention should be paid to the wiring, when I first assembled they hit the seal and the insulation was broken. These wiring must be routed carefully before final assembly.


Partially collecting, doing a performance check ... everything worked for me right away.

Standard batteries have a capacity of 700 mAh, so the capacity of the purchased ones is usually not fundamental, it will still be higher. But just in case, we'll check the purchased ones;)

So, "relatives" (who are many years old) charge for 10-15 minutes and show almost 600 ... even strange, it seems that the capacity is not so small, but they are "tired" noticeably in the operating time.


Newly bought ... turned out to be only slightly higher, and approximately corresponded to the capacity of the new original ones, i.e. three times less than the declared one :) These are the "good" ones :)
Although I do not exclude the possibility that in the electric shaver itself there is some kind of "limiter" of charge, because the inserted old GP also showed a similar capacity. And I don’t have a separate smart for determining the NIMH capacity (I’m not going to buy it). Therefore, I cannot bear the final verdict on the purchased batteries - in this electric shaver, in principle, they work normally. Let's see in the process of using how much better they will be from their originals :)

Trying to charge new batteries ... charging ... Everything is fine, charging was completely successful, the shaver is working ... it will probably work for a while.

I wanted to end with the words "more than one animal was not injured during the shooting", but it did not work :)
In the process of creating the review, I connected a device to measure the capacity of the batteries, and to connect it I needed to use a cord from the razor. As a result of crooked hands, I screwed on my own charger, which separately costs more than an electric shaver :)
I screwed it up so specifically - I did not think that it would be completely filled with resin inside ... the board split into several. parts in the process of disassembly (and it was a pity). As a result, one more revision was made, which may be useful to readers :)

The power supply unit of the electric shaver has a decent weight (filled with resin inside) and a specific plug for connecting an electric shaver. However, based on the charging characteristics, you can see that the operating voltage is declared 5.4V with a current of 1.2A

Hence the idea came up to use standard USB charging. For example, my smartphone 2A went “from the factory”. WHY carry on business trips excess weight and a charger for an electric shaver, if you can use one for both a tablet and a smartphone and now for an electric shaver;)
Well that is the possibility of the charging process was checked, two cables were connected on the "snot" - the process is going well, it has already been charged several times in the process of writing the review (I changed the batteries).

During charging, the current jumps, but no more than 1.3A surges during charging, and up to 1.7 at the time of connection. I think it's okay, the charging is not heating up.
It remains only to properly cut the USB end on the cable and everything will be ready for use! :)

IMHO buying spare parts (nets, knives, batteries, chargers) for such inexpensive electric shavers is impractical, because the price of these parts is commensurate with the price of a similar new electric shaver. It's easier to either "modify" (if not laziness) or go straight to the trash can.
Pros: Works, no special skills and knowledge are required, price.
Cons: buying a new electric shaver is delayed
A separate minus for the purchased batteries - The capacity is commensurate with the deceased "relatives" - are highly not recommended for purchase!

The principle of operation of the battery shaver is identical to the operation of the device, which operates on the mains. Its distinctive features are the absence of the need for power supply and binding to the place, while the limited power of the battery excludes the possibility of constant intensive use of the structure.

Currently, all models of electric shavers can be divided into two types: rotary and mesh.

Let's take a closer look at each of them.

Shavers, mesh type

The most common type of electric shaver is those equipped with a grid system.

They are a standard cutterhead made up of a flexible metal mesh that covers the cutter or blade unit on the holder. Due to the presence of an electric vibrator, presented in the form of solenoid coils, the system can perform oscillatory movements.

However, some models of electric shavers are equipped with a rotary motor, which is connected to the blade unit by means of a crank mechanism.

That is why, in the process of choosing a mesh type structure, it is important to study in detail specifications and the structure of the device.

Rotary shavers

The design of a rotary electric shaver is presented in the form of several cutting heads, each of which is equipped with a rotating knife located under the mesh disc. The system is driven by rotary electric motors connected to the knives by means of drive shafts and a gearbox.

Considering the fact that the blades in this type of device cannot be sharpened, if they become dull, it is necessary to replace the element as quickly as possible.

Remember, regardless of the model of the device, each shaver has a certain service life, after this time, malfunctions often occur in the process of functioning of the device. To eliminate such malfunctions, it is important to timely repair the broken equipment.

Typical breakdowns of electric shavers

Most breakdowns of electric shavers are caused by unstable voltage in the electrical network or improper operation of the structure. If your device suffers such a fate, you should contact the service center for help or try to repair it yourself.

The most common causes of shaver breakage are:

  • - blows, falling of the device;
  • - an attempt to replace a non-removable battery;
  • - long-term presence of the device in water;
  • - the presence of a factory defect.

Unstable voltage in the network leads to the following consequences:

  • - malfunctions of the power supply unit, electrical circuits;
  • - failure of the control board;
  • - malfunctioning chargers, batteries.

Signs of improper operation of an electric shaver are: a decrease in the efficiency of the product, an increase in the time for shaving, heating of the structure, the occurrence of noise during the operation, a failure of the electric motor robots.

Consider methods for eliminating breakdowns of the mechanism

  • 1. Shaves the device poorly

The most common causes of ineffective shaving are:

  • - clogging of the cutter head;
  • - dullness of the cutting edges of the blades;
  • - damage to the mesh.

Consider the sequence of cleaning the cutter head of the mesh device in case of clogging.

  • Switch off the shaver, pull out the plug.
  • Remove the cutter head.
  • Knock out cut hairs. To do this, knock the back of the element on a solid surface.

Remember, when cleaning the structure, it is important to monitor the condition of the mesh, since even minor movements can damage its surface.

  • Clean the knife block using a soft brush.

Some manufacturers additionally equip the device with an aerosol cleaner, which must first be applied to the cutter head.

  • To clean the rotor structure, pull it out of the socket, then clean the cutter heads with a brush.

This procedure will remove hair particles between the blades.

  • Then it is necessary to remove the cutter head unit, clean the inside of the mechanism.

In the process of using an electric shaver, it is important to remember that clogging of the product affects not only the quality of its operation, but also the speed of operation of the device. It is important to wash the appliance after each shaving session.

  • 2. Blunt knives also impair the performance of the electric shaver.

As a rule, for the device to function well, it is necessary to replace the blades at least once a year, in addition to this, it is important to focus on your own feelings.

To install new knives in the electric shaver, first lift up or completely remove, depending on the design, the knife block. Then replace the required elements according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Remember, dull rotary heads should be replaced at the same time.

If the mesh is damaged, it is important to immediately replace the element, since its torn and cracked sections can damage the blades of the knife block.

  • 3. Noisy electric shaver

Let us consider the reasons for the occurrence of noise during the operation of the device.

Clogging of the head of the structure. To eliminate the malfunction, it is necessary to remove the element and clean it with a brush, which should be moved across the knife block. Then you need to put the mechanism back, and then apply a proprietary shaving oil to the mesh.

This operation will clean up the gaps between the shaver head.

Damage to the mesh. According to safety rules, it is strictly forbidden to move the blades over a deformed mesh disc or mesh. To eliminate the problem, you must replace the element.

After eliminating the cause of the malfunction, the noise during the operation of the device should disappear.

  • 4. It works slowly, the device heats up

If the appliance shaves poorly, check that the blade unit and head are installed correctly.

When heating the device, pay attention to the cord contacts, as well as the condition of the electric motor or battery.

If there are signs of a wire burn, it is necessary to buy and replace it.

If the cord is in good condition, it is worth checking the motor or battery. To do this, take the shaver to a service center.

  • 5. Shaver failure

There are times when, when turned on, the electric shaver does not react at all to the commands of the control system.

Let's consider the main causes of this kind of malfunction.

  • Wrong voltage... In this case, it is necessary to check the correctness of the supply voltage setting on the device.
  • Seizing knives... To eliminate the problem, remove the cutter head, check the operation of the electric motor. In the case of normal functioning of the structure, it is necessary to inspect the mesh disc or the inner surface of the mesh. When the element is deformed, it is worth replacing the entire head.
  • Faulty wire, plug... First of all, you should check the condition of the cord with a tester. To do this, you need to lean one end of the probe against the contact pin of the plug, and the other against the contacts located on the other end of the wire. Alternating touching will determine if there is an open circuit.

Do-it-yourself electric shaver repair is within the power of a master. Soberly assess the existing skills, if you do not see the difference between an inductor and a capacitor, you are afraid to measure the voltage of 230 volts without threatening people's lives, it is better to discard the venture. Everyone can clean the mechanism when the electric razor does not cut. But you boast to your acquaintances: now you know how to repair Mikma electric shavers.

Cleaning the head of an electric shaver

Modern electric shavers form two broad classes:

  1. Rotary.
  2. Mesh.

The first are named for the knives that rotate the rotors of electric motors. Before considering how to repair an electric shaver yourself, we will describe the cleaning process. In most cases, when the device refuses to shape beards, it means that the working head is dirty. The electric shaver set is supplemented with a brush and a special spray. Let's find out the purpose of things.

Cleaning the rotary shaver

The shaver head will last no longer than 1 year. After it is considered: it's time to replace. It is recommended to clean the unit every three weeks. In the case of a rotary shaver, start with the outer screens. Gently brush each one around, sweeping out the hair clippings.

After that, the knife block is unfastened from the shaver body. The unit is disassembled into its component parts. The holder with knives and nets is removed from the plastic frame. Each pair of cutting surfaces is divided into two parts. Now the table is littered with:

  1. plastic frame;
  2. holder;
  3. two to three pairs of cutting surfaces, consisting of:
  • rotary knife;
  • mesh.

Each knife is shaped like a flange sleeve. A section of a thick-walled tube, at one end there is a washer two to three times larger in diameter. On the formed platform with a hole in the middle, beveled projections provided with cutting surfaces are located in a circle. Be careful, even when dull, the blades of an electric shaver can be harmful to your health. By the way, it concerns mesh models. Handle knives with care. Everyone saw the grid. Round parts with slits in a circle that glide over the skin as you shave.

We sweep each element of the shaver head with a brush, if an aerosol is supplied in the kit, we process the knives and nets, and re-clean. It remains to put together the nodes by setting back.

A light click means the shaver is ready to use. Check the product after assembly. It may happen that the parts are assembled incorrectly, the knife block is crooked. The shaver does not work, still does not cut - the operation was performed incorrectly.

Disassemble the shaver following the instructions above and reassemble. It didn't help, it's time to buy a new head.

Cleaning the electric foil shaver

Wait a moment to take the brush. You can't do it. Even a gentle touch of the bristles can damage the correct shape of the mesh. The shaver does not work well and the blades may become blocked. Straightening the mesh at home without harming it is difficult. Electric shaver repair shops will be useless helpers.

First. If the shaver is washable, clean it after each use. Consider one thing. The electric shaver is good after the purchase for the first 3-5 procedures. Then the bacteria begin to multiply shock in the head, each use brings irritation to the skin, which is powerless to remove with special means for personal hygiene. Try to find a disinfectant spray instead, treat the blades before washing. Naturally, the remedy must be for these purposes. Try holding the knives under an ultraviolet light to block the growth of bacteria.

Regarding other types of electric shavers, they are cleaned every few procedures, without the use of water. For this purpose, the mesh is carefully removed. Cleanse from hair residues by blowing properly. Try, after removing the head, knock the end of the table gently. Partially removes dirt from the shaver mesh. The knife block is fanned with a brush. If there is an aerosol in the kit, use it for additional cleaning of the device.

Try the recessed foil shaver after assembly in the same way as in the previous case. The effect is unsatisfactory - it's time to buy a new head.

If the shaver stops working

Rotary shavers

The internal structure of a rotary electric shaver is simple. An engine is mounted inside, by means of an output shaft and an eccentric gear that transmits torque to two or three knives. The outside of the mechanism is protected by a plastic case.

To filter the instability of the supply voltage, there are several chokes and capacitors inside. Electric shavers designed for use with different voltages have a special switch. For the technical implementation of the possibility of operation from different networks, the stator coil has four windings. Copper wires clad with cambric have a fixed color.

Knives

Before disassembling your electric shaver, try turning on the one devoid of knives. There is no automatic blocking in the absence of a head - the drive must rotate. It turns out - it's the head. Remove, disassemble, look. It is possible that the complete electric shaver buzzes and the knives refuse to rotate.

Nutrition

The next step is to check the mains voltage. OK - we disconnect the wire with the block from the case, measure the voltage by plugging it into the socket. Attention, be extremely careful to avoid defeat electric shock... Check the cord by ringing a multimeter (tester). The signal passes uncertainly - it's a floating cliff. Try using a different cord to power your shaver. OK - problem limited to wire.

Filter elements

It is the turn of the chokes, harmonic filter capacitors. Testing is done differently depending on the specific design of the shaver. In a difficult case, the elements are soldered (removed) in turn, the integrity is examined:

  • chokes are ringing;
  • the capacitors are not swollen.

There are special devices - it will be useful to measure the denominations of the elements. The capacitance of the swollen capacitors is less than the number on the case. It is simply impossible not to notice.

You can go the other way. Disconnect the stators, measure the terminal voltage in both switch positions. Be careful to avoid electric shock. The multimeter probes are connected to the switched off device.

Stators

If no malfunction is identified, go to the stator windings. Call each one if you know the pin locations. The resistance of the windings is Ohm units. It is impossible to fix a shaver with a faulty stator at home.

The terminals ring in pairs - a little, there is no guarantee of complete serviceability. Carefully measure the output current of the voltage switch in both positions. Let's make a reservation right away, the Russians in the country use a nominal 230 volts, measurements in this position will be enough. If there is no current, the problem is limited to the stator.

You can wind the stator coils at home if you have the appropriate skills. You can buy suitable ones.

Anchor

The next thing to do when repairing electric shavers is to examine the armature winding. Let's check the voltage value of the motor brushes. The voltage is present, the razor does not work - the matter is in the anchor winding. Rewind at home if you know the parameters of the wire, the number of turns, and other characteristics.

Check the stator windings and armatures with a multimeter. Each is removed from the electric razor and rings. You can also measure resistance.

Electric foil shavers

Repair of mesh models, Remington electric shavers, goes in a similar way. In conclusion, I would like to say: a breakdown of a block of knives with two nets is not a sentence. Find a second instance that is faulty, suffering from a different type of breakdown.

Of the two blocks, the one with the knives in order should be repaired. Try to appreciate the sharpness, try how well the pendulum moves back and forth. Repair the better foil shaver unit. It is strongly not recommended to rearrange the meshes from other models of devices, try to make the part yourself.

Each mesh is secured with several plastic holders. To notice, remove the knives from the head, examine carefully from the inside. Each mesh can be removed effortlessly. You can help with a small slotted screwdriver.

The review is over. It is better to take an expensive razor to a workshop, learn how to repair it - at a cheap one! We recommend storing household appliances that are thrown into the trash can. As a test material, they are invaluable for a novice handicraftsman. The experience gained will, of course, be useful in the future.

Complete information on the topic "template for a beard trimming reviews" - all the most relevant and useful on this issue.

Probably many have noticed that most men nowadays are trying to grow a beautiful beard. And this is not surprising, because a beard really makes a man more beautiful and brutal, which suits them this way. But growing and caring for a beard is not such an easy matter, we need to work hard on this, and today we will find out how!

How to care for a beard?

There are a few things to keep in mind if you decide to grow or already have a beard. Without the right approach, your beard will never look gorgeous.

1 ... For a beard to grow faster and be beautiful, you need to take care of three things - proper nutrition, healthy sleep and a minimum of stress. The more protein you consume, the faster your beard will grow. Protein very much provides the body with just those substances that are needed for hair growth, but this is only the first part - an addition to this is needed good dream... Many doctors also advise drinking 8 glasses of water a day, this also contributes to the growth of a thick beard.

When consuming protein, remember that hair will begin to grow not only in the beard, but throughout the body, so be prepared for this.

The same should be said about stress, because it is at this time that hair begins to fall out in a person, and it does not matter what age you are.

2. The temptation to shave off your beard. A beautiful and thick beard does not grow in 1 day, it needs to be grown for weeks, but not everyone is able to overcome their temptations to shave off a beard a few days after their decision to grow it. When growing a beard, almost everyone is faced with the problem of itching, and you need to go through it. While our beard grows, we can think about our style, because the beard can be cut in different ways, and at the same time look accordingly.

3. We are working on what we already have. Until we reach the planned results, we can work on what we have already achieved. With the right choice of the shape of the beard, you can make it more attractive, thick and beautiful.

4 ... And one more important point- for many men, the hair on the beard grows in patches, and it does not look very good, since the beard is obtained with gaps. In this case, you need to use a hair thickener, thanks to which, you can hide all the imperfections of the beard. This thickener is used by many stars who wear short beards. The main thing is not to overdo it in this matter.

5. And the last thing, if you have already grown a beautiful beard - take care of it so that you do not have to shave everything to zero and start all over again. Uses various products to keep the beard clean and beautiful.

How do I trim my beard? How to make a stylish beard (photo)

V modern world a beard and mustache are not just facial hair, it is an element of appearance that gives individuality, character, a real work of art. Growing them is not that difficult, but it will take a lot of effort to make them attractive and well-groomed. How to trim your beard beautifully so that you and others like it? To do this, you need to go through several main stages.

Hair regrowth

It's good if you already have a beard, and you just need to correct its shape. But what if you have to start from scratch? To do this, you should stock up on a lot of patience. After you stop shaving, facial hair may develop as it grows. discomfort, including itching. Since hair grows unevenly in different parts of the face, you will have to come to terms with the fact that an uneven growing beard will not add attractiveness to its owner.

Growing hair must be continued until the desired length is reached. Until this moment, it is better not to correct the shape of the beard. As a rule, in a year it can grow by 13-15 cm. Most men wear a beard up to two centimeters long. In this case, it is necessary to trim the neck to create a well-groomed look.

What types of beards are there

Today, the following beard options are the most popular:

1. Goat hair - cut so that elongated hair remains only at the very end of the chin.

2. Goatee - it is supposed to leave both a beard and a mustache. Cut so that the hairline goes over upper lip and smoothly passes into an asymmetrical oval, which expands towards the chin.

3. Franz Joseph - a strip of hair descends from the ear and, before reaching the chin, smoothly passes into the mustache.

4. Skipper - a narrow strip of hair extends from ear to ear and covers only the lower part of the chin, forming a horseshoe.

5. Anchor - small antennae remain above the lip, a thin vertical strip of hair remains on the chin, expanding to the bottom, like an anchor.

6. The box is a classic, the beard is trimmed neatly and evenly, covers the entire chin, merges with the mustache.

How to choose the right shape?

When the question arises of how to cut a beard, then first you need to decide on its shape. It's not a fact that the type you like will fit the oval of the face. It must be remembered that a beard can beautify and even hide any imperfections, but it can also worsen appearance.

Almost any beard looks harmonious with an oval face shape. An elongated face can be visually expanded with sideburns or a rounded horseshoe beard. But a goatee or goatee will narrow the face even more.

How to properly trim a beard for owners of a round face? A trapezoidal beard from ear to ear or a goatee would be appropriate here, but it is better to forget about sideburns.

The triangle face will noticeably transform thanks to a square-shaped beard or a slightly rounded horseshoe. Hair color should also be taken into account. As a rule, almost any type of beard suits blondes, but it is better for brunettes to give preference to a compact beard.

In newfangled salons and hairdressing salons, you can use such a service as computer modeling. In this case, your photo is loaded into a special computer program, and the stylist will select a suitable beard shape for you. This is quite convenient because you can understand in advance how to trim your beard and see the approximate final result. But what if there is no time or opportunity to turn to a professional craftsman? In this case, you will have to do everything yourself.

How to trim your beard yourself?

In order to make a beautiful beard at home, you will need:

Shaving cream (in case of very sensitive skin or coarse hair);

Scallop with dense teeth;

Trimmer with beard trimming attachments.

A beard is a kind of masterpiece that emphasizes the individuality of its owner, so it is quite important to choose the right style. Look at your colleague - what kind of beard he has, photos of various options can be seen in magazines. Consider if this style is right for you. Take a look in the mirror, examine your beard from all sides. Before starting your haircut, make sure you think carefully about all the details. Drawn a picture in your imagination, which means you can proceed to the next step.

Beard trim

On the areas of the face and neck that are supposed to be cleaned of vegetation, you need to apply shaving foam, after which you should carefully remove excess hair with a razor according to the model you want. When this task is completed, the chin is thoroughly washed from the remains of the cream and dried with a towel.

How to trim a beard if it requires significant trimming? For this, it is better to use scissors. First, you need to moisten your hair with water, but so that it is only slightly damp, and comb it with a comb - this will facilitate the cutting process.

How beautiful to trim your beard with a trimmer

Now it's time to use the trimmer. The beard must be thoroughly dried and combed so that the machine does not cut too much. Movements should be smooth, without breaks. You need to start a haircut from the ear, gradually moving towards the chin, and then rise back. In this way, you can gradually achieve the required shape.

For beginners, it is better to use a nozzle that cuts hair as little as possible, since without the proper experience, you can cut the excess. When this process is over, the beard must be washed, dried and combed again, then carefully examine the result in the mirror. If individual hairs are found that do not fit into the overall picture, then you can get rid of them with the help of small nail scissors, carefully cutting them off.

Goatee at home

How to trim your goatee beard yourself? This will not be difficult, because now they sell special shaving templates that can be adjusted and adjusted to fit your face shape. Such devices tightly cover the part of the beard and mustache that should be left. And those hairs that are outside the template can be safely cut with a razor or trimmer - the result is a beautiful and perfectly even goatee.

Styling a beard at home is a tricky business. But if the result of the work does not suit you at all, then you can always completely shave off all the hair on your face.

How to grow a beautiful beard

If you want to have a beautiful beard, you need to regularly adjust its shape with a razor. As with most of these cosmetic procedures, in order to properly shave the stubble, you must have certain skills and experience in this matter. In this article, you can learn how to make a beautiful beard and always look stylish and respectable. In addition, here are the highlights to help you shave your facial hair properly so that you don't experience discomfort, injury, or irritation.

How to prepare your skin before shaving

Before shaving, you should wash your face well. warm water... This will help soften the stubble and prepare your face to touch the blade. To get a good effect, you can moisten a small towel with hot water, wring it out and apply it to your face for half a minute. This will help prepare your hair and skin better for the procedure.

Immediately before you start shaving your beard, you need to treat your face with foam, gel or shaving cream. The product should be squeezed into the palm of your hand and evenly applied to the chin, neck and cheeks with gentle circular motions. You need to cover as much as possible all the areas that you intend to shave. It is even better to use special brushes that will allow you to more evenly apply the foam or cream.

Shaving tools

In order to shave your beard, you will need several types of tools. In particular, the most popular are:

Each of these tools has advantages and disadvantages. The choice of a particular device largely depends on the characteristics of your skin and its sensitivity.

Electric shaver

Using an electric shaver is quite simple. It will be enough for you to carefully study the instructions that are in the box from the tool. However, the electric shaver is not suitable for all men. For example, this appliance will not be able to eliminate too stiff stubble. Also, it will not cope with ingrown hairs. Therefore, many men often give preference to machine tools, using an electric razor only periodically.

Razors

When using razors, you should first of all monitor the sharpness of the blade. This is very important, as a dull blade will quickly irritate the skin and even damage it. This should be taken especially seriously by men with overly sensitive skin. Even if you shave with disposable razors, they require frequent replacement. As a rule, you can shave no more than three times with one machine.

Shaving technique

  1. First of all, you need to decide what you will use to shave your beard. We talked about the choice of the tool above, so we will not dwell on this in detail.
  2. Shaving your stubble is best in the morning when your skin is well rested. Before the procedure itself, you should prepare your face with warm water or special creams. This will soften the hair and facial skin for a smoother process. After washing your face, you can apply a wet towel or napkin to your face for a short period of time.
  3. After the completion of the preparatory stage, a foam or gel is applied to the face using circular massaging movements. The product should be applied to all areas that require shaving. As you shave your stubble, you should periodically rinse the machine in warm water.
  4. Now we proceed directly to work with the machine. They should be guided in the direction of hair growth, starting from the cheek. The machine is driven from the beginning of the bristle to the chin. After removing the hair on the cheeks, it is necessary to move on to the chin and neck area. To do this, a razor is carried out from the bottom up, from the neck to the chin.
  5. At the final stage, you need to shave the mustache and chin area. In these places, the bristles are the toughest, so they are dealt with last, when the foam has softened the hair.
  6. If the bristles are too stiff, rinse off the foam immediately, and then use hot water handle problem areas. You need to re-lather and shave those areas.

How to properly shape a beard

If you want to have a beautiful beard, you should pay attention to shaping it before shaving. The creation of a beard shape consists of several stages:

  1. First, you should study the outline of your face in order to understand which type of beard is best for you. In any case, you need to grow thick stubble, and only then deal with its formation. This is in order to understand where your hair grows best. For example, they can grow closer to or away from the nose.
  2. After you have studied the shape of the face and decided on the type of hair growth, you need to choose the shape of the beard. If you are experiencing intense stubble growth with a junction of the chin, cheekbones and whiskers, then it is best for you to choose a uniform shape. Round-faced men should wear a goatee or goatee. For men with a so-called runny mustache, a beard similar to the one worn by Abraham Lincoln is the preferred option.
  3. After you have decided on the shape, the hair should be allowed to grow well to the required length so that it fills in all the places on the face that are necessary for this shape.
  4. Now you can grab a quality machine and start shaving your beard to give it the shape you want.

After Shave Beard Care

In order for you to have a beautiful beard, it needs special care after shaving. After completing this procedure, rinse your face well and apply aftershave lotion. Experts do not recommend using any creams, as they may result in acne or wen. If you still want to use the cream, then it is better to do this no earlier than 10-15 minutes after applying the lotion. It is believed that facial hair should be shaved no more than once every three days. Shaving more often will make your stubble harder and increase hair growth.
