Are you prone to in-growths resulting from shaving?

1. Before shaving your face, steam it at least once a week. Wash your face with a face scrub to exfoliate dead skin. After steaming and exfoliating, shave. 
2. If you are shaving your legs, do so in the shower. Apply soap, and exfoliate the area well with a loofah or pumice stone. When the hair has been wet for at least ten minutes, shave it off. 
3. Shave in the direction of hair growth, not against the direction.
4. Try to avoid using too many strokes in the same area. One clean sweep should do the job. 
5. Don’t stretch your facial skin too far while shaving.
