There’s not a man alive who doesn’t want a smooth, close, and pain-free shave. Shaving gel manufacturers know this, and every product out there is supposed to provide the “best shave ever!” But every man’s face shape, skin, and whiskers are different, so what’s a great shaving gel for one guy may not be a good choice for another. Shaving frequency is another factor. Some guys only need (or want) to shave a couple of times a week, while other guys have to shave every day.
