Do you know the benefits of steam?
Many ask us at the barbershop for the ozone steam service with the beard grooming shave. In addition to opening the pores and leaving the skin in optimum condition for a good shave, it is bactericidal, fungicidal and viricidal. And at home?. I don’t think you have one of these, but we can use a kettle or a saucepan with boiling water and steam for 10 to 15 minutes. If we add a little thyme or rosemary to the water, these have antibiotic and antiseptic properties. Please, do not do steam baths if you have any respiratory problems. Or symptom of fatigue when breathing. In this case consult your doctor.
Once we have opened the pore, we can prepare the skin with a little nivea. This way it will be more hydrated and will suffer less from the friction of the blade. Later use soap or shaving foam, preferably with a brush. The function of the brush is to soften the hair of the beard. At the end, a towel with cold water to close the pore and a moisturizer or aftershave, depending on the type of skin you have.
Tips:
You can use a towel moistened in water, put it in the micro for less than 1 minute and apply it to open the pore, leaving it to act for a few minutes.
If you have a brush, leave it soaked in hot water for a while before using it, then take a bowl and make the foam by beating vigorously until you get a dense foam.
I hope you serve my advice.
