an open letter

Dear vast number of guys who always seem to have razor burn on their necks-

As you surely have already noted, shaving with the grain prevents razor burn – hence shaving down rather than up while shaving your face. But run your finger along your neck and you’ll notice the direction of hair growth changes part way down. That’s right, it changes direction. Your beard hair grows pointing down only above the top of your Adam’s apple; below that, the hair grows upward. Which is why you always have razor burn at that point or lower – all these years, you’ve been shaving your neck against the grain.

So, basically, stop doing that, because those little red bumps make you look like a jackass.

Yours in the Internet,

joshua
