Hey, I'm kind of new to shaving and all, but I have a problem.Whenever I shave, when I'm done, there are some hairs left right beneath my nose.I can't seem to get them no matter how I try *And yes, my nose is a little too big 8-| * And my girlfriend seems to be whining about it.I'm using one of the new Gillete power fusion somethingie one.But, I don't think it matters much.
ivaylo,

hey man i use the same razor and i agree it is har to get there. because it is so big (the razor) its hard to get the blades that close to you nose. have you tries using the back edge of it where there is a single blade? that helps me. also shave from the bottom of your nose to the bottom of your lip and then the reverse to get stubborn hairs.

does this make sense?

let me know how it goes! always use shaving cream and your hair will be softer and cause less irritation if you shave after you take a hot shower....

I can't help you much, I've never shaved under my nose. But my electric shaver has a trimmer that I think would do the trick. I've never used one of those blade thingys either. Started out with a Shick electric shaver in 1953. :O

Well, I tried shaving it with the blades turned around going up and it's still hard to do but it does to job done.Just needa pull off a weird face gesture and it works.Thanks for the help.I also get these little pimples which aren't so little sometimes after I shave and I'm pretty sure it's because of that.Do I need an aftershave or something?I like shave with some gel and wash it with cold water.

ok man, let me help you out here. Since you are new to shaving you do NOT need a big fusion. Go get a two blade or mach 3. when you get ready to shave, do it AFTER a shower, it helps soften the hair allowing for comfort and closeness. when you get out of the shower work the gel in well and go WITH the grain rinsing often with cool water. being younger with no "whiskers" you can get away with going against the grain but that will cause the razor burn you're experiencing.

Dear god, I just found out that on the top of the blades there's an extra one which wasn't really sharp or anything.I used it and it like worked.I feel stupid now. 8-|
