Here’s the actual video of me shaving my beard off 😆👶🏼 What else would you like to know when it comes to grooming? Comment below! And check this >> instagram.com/alexcosta for more! -Alex
Alex Costa Hey man how are you?? I’ve got exams at the moment and live just out of London would love to meet you. Keep it going! Your doing so well! Been watching you for like 3-4 years!
1. Hydraite your skin. 2. Use a proper shaving gel. 3. Check your razor blade. 4. Use the right razor. 5. Wich direction to shave in 6. Apply a mosturizing cream Sponsor : Gillette Watch full video for explaining! Great job Alex ❤️
Not trying to hate on TMF and AlphaM but Alex Costa imho runs rings around them with this level of content and production. Amazing my man, Wish you with even more success!!
Alpha used to be a beast back in the day. He really paved the way for everyone along with RMRS. But Alpha just has way too many sponsors and RMRS seems for more professional guys or rather, men
@@geargrinder69 Yep I completely agree with what you said. Once they fall into launching their personal businesses into becomes too monotonous and not engaging. Alex at the moment blends crispy quality and tips for the younger demographic; something that appeals to me more imo.
One Dapper Street and Alex actually care about the content first and then promotion. Not the other way around, and they actually make new videos, not repeating the same thing every other video lol
Ted Brayton I’ve seen the shave reviewers collections but I’ll cherry pick the best blade and soap and keep cost down in the shaving dept. plus I’m not adding more plastic to the landfills. I have a disposable box for my blades to last me for a few years.
I am 18 and have just started shaving. This video was SO helpful! (Also, what are your views on aftershave? Is ot good or bad? What is the proper way to use it?)
Now it's just the stache left on my face😪, but I think it looks better rn than before. Thank you for making my first shave easy and straightforward. This 13 year old now has a smooth face. 😀
My biggest tip if you get irritated skin easily by shaving is to switch from cartridge razors to double edge safety razors(DE Razors), shave after your shower, use a good pre shave cream or oil. using a DE razor instead of cartridge can help by taking the amount of blades from like 6 blades to 1 blade, each blade that passes over your skin is a pass, so think 5 blades in one stroke is 5 passes, one blade one pass. also a plus side to de shaving is the price, it's really cheap to shave using de razors instead of the expensive cartridge blades.
IMO, the best razor is the Leaf Razor. Load it with Parker blades, soften the beard with Proraso pre-shave, then lather up Proraso shave cream with a brush and finish with a nice balm, and I guarantee you will get the best shave ever. Since the Leaf has a pivot and it is super hard to cut yourself, you can speed through the shave risk-free.
I've just learned to shave you need shaveing gel to cut thick hairs with no pull and get rid of fine hairs with no cuts bumps and redness I really love shaveing maybe ill get exfoliant tomorrow ive like drying my face out once a week I like wake up effect face was after a shave
I gave up shaving since I can grow an awesome beard and it looks good on me but thnx to ur vids maybe I'll go clean and fresh as a baby's butt ince again since a big event comes soon in my schedule , thnx Alex
Hi, Alex Your videos constantly inspire us to grow our own style 🙏. We value the ideas you share and the two to three videos you produce each week without taking a break.
I agree in "testing" things out and finding what works for them. However, for most, you go w/the grain first time through and then you can lather up again and go against the grain........it really doesn't take that much more time, but you really do get a clean shave overall. About Gillette--their blades are so damn overpriced......my only knock on Gillette. There are other great options out there and I encourage others to explore those options and save some Benjamin's. Thanks again for another great video man.
could you tell me which moisturizer should I use after my shave? I used to do shave daily because I am studying hotel management. I want ur help. could you say some moisturizers names please....
Instead of myself growing a full beard I'm one of those guys who grows a circle beard so I decided to shave it all off. btw you look great Alex clean shaven
# one tip to avoid these problems is to stop clean shaven. I go for 3-4 inches executive beard style. And trim up neckline every 2 days say no to neckbeard
Can you please tell about how much your face cream will cost and can you please give a discount when you release it because I am 14 years old and do not have a lot of money
Use double edge safety razor, no tug or pull, super smooth and close. Also blades are pennies not dollars. Which I must admit my beard hair is as thick as a tree, but it has been a life saver. Also I use soaps and a brush, exfoliates and hydrated hair before shaving, haven’t had a razor bump in years since doing so.
I wanna get a job at Google but don't know what to do. Plz provide me some tips and what to study. I love the field you were in while you were at Google.
the 10 COMMANDMENTS for PREVENTING RAZOR BUMPS & INGROWN HAIRS 1. THOU SHALT NOT USE DIRTY BLADES! Avoid shaving with dull, over-used razor blades. And be sure to keep your slightly used tools as clean as possible. Scrub the cutting heads of your tools with soap, hot water, and rubbing alcohol to destroy bacteria. Pro Tip: even brand new blades still need to be cleaned. 2. HONOR THY DELICATE SKIN! Avoid too many blades! If you are prone to ingrown hairs then you don’t need 3 or more blades. More blades equal more passes causing the hair to fall beneath the skin and become ingrown. Plus, more blading the skin leads to micro cuts through which bacteria is more likely to enter and this leads to razor burn. 3. DO NOT TAKE PREP TIME IN VAIN! Wash or steam the skin for 2 to 3 minutes with warm water. Then apply the shaving cream leaving it on for at least 2 minutes to really soften the hair. 4. THOU SHALT NOT GO AGAINST THE GRAIN! Shaving against the grain (upwards) may get you a closer shave but doing so also increases ingrowns. Shave in the direction of hair growth…it’s usually downwards. Confirm this by doing a face/ body inspection to see which way your hair grows. 5. THOU SHALT NOT PRESS! Avoid pressing too hard on the skin with the blade. If you follow STEP #3, then a gliding, light touch is all you need. The hair stubble should literally fall away with little or no pressure from the blade. Pressing hard is the main cause of shaving irritation! Be gentle so as to prevent the hair from being cut so low that it falls beneath the top layer of skin. 6. THOU SHALT NOT PASS, PASS, PASS! Avoid too many quick passes with the blade. One pass per hairy area - going 1-2 inches downward at a time - will prevent ingrown hairs. Always shave like you might cause damage, not like you’re mowing the front lawn. 7. THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT OVER SHAVING! Avoid shaving too often. This rule is hard to follow, especially if you have to be beardless for your job…but if you are prone to ingrowns, try hair removal with electric clippers (the barber kind of clippers). The results are not super close but no one but you will know the difference. Provided your skin can handle these alternatives try waxing, depilatory, lasering or an epilator. 8. THOU SHALT NOT CLOG! Avoid using skin/pore clogging creams or lotions since they keep hairs from growing up. After a shave, keep your skin bare; let the tiny army breath, and allow those newly shaved, microscopic hairs to grow out just in time for the next shave. If your objective is smooth, bump-free skin following a shave or wax, then right after hair removal allow the skin to heal first. Promote healing by proper shaving techniques followed by 70% rubbing alcohol which kills any bacteria that may enter those micro cuts created from the shave and prevents the onset of razor burn. Sure your skin will be a little dry at first but this is a temporary tradeoff. Wait 2 hours then moisturize. 9. KEEP THY SMOOTH SKIN FREE! At least for the first day or two, try to avoid tight fitting clothing around the Adam’s apple (neck) and/or below the waistline region. Newly shaved hair follicles need room to grow up. 10. REMEMBER TO EXFOLIATE! Whether you shave, sugar, wax or epilate, not enough exfoliation to remove excess layers of skin can lead to ingrown hairs. There are two types: chemical exfoliation (AHA, BHAs) and physical exfoliation (beads, coffee scrubs, gloves, brushes). Exfoliators like the WIZKER brush have soft and firm bristles. When you follow these 10 tips religiously, you’ll prevent razor bumps and ingrown hairs permanently!

Nah Alex is still somewhat of a walking ad but not even close to as bad as TMF and alpha
Just switched from disposable razors to a Safety Razor. Buy a quality soap and learn to shave with a safety razor. Really helped me with irritation.
Red Salmon I’m with you but it’s gotta be a sponsorship thing, says the guy with five razors, twelve brushes and sixty soap/splash sets 😀
Ted Brayton I’ve seen the shave reviewers collections but I’ll cherry pick the best blade and soap and keep cost down in the shaving dept. plus I’m not adding more plastic to the landfills. I have a disposable box for my blades to last me for a few years.
he looks better with the beard then without in my opinion
I agree 🙈
Yes, like 95% of men with a full beard! Beard is like the men's makeup!
TheAkamoe33 i look better clean shaven but i'm 15 i'll try grow out a beard for the first time. My face is spiky rn
He looks younger without it though ; )

What if I DON'T use a shaving Cream

Use pre shave oil if you have super sensitive skin... it provides a protective barrier that your skin will thank you for.
Can you please do a video on "gym exercises for beginners". Really need your guidance. Peace. ✌🏻
Thanks for the great suggestion!

could you tell me which moisturizer should I use after my shave? I used to do shave daily because I am studying hotel management. I want ur help. could you say some moisturizers names please....
I am going to shave Tomorrow for first time thanks Alex
Do you believe that pre-shave oil is better than shave cream?
Instead of myself growing a full beard I'm one of those guys who grows a circle beard so I decided to shave it all off. btw you look great Alex clean shaven
My boi Alex with least obnoxious ads 👐👐
Should one have to moisturise, if have oily skin?
# one tip to avoid these problems is to stop clean shaven. I go for 3-4 inches executive beard style. And trim up neckline every 2 days say no to neckbeard
Can you please tell about how much your face cream will cost and can you please give a discount when you release it because I am 14 years old and do not have a lot of money
Is trimming or shaving better ?
But you really look good in beard man😍
As a teen, this was super useful!
Can you make video which hair color is better for different skin tones!!
Against the grain or along the grain , which promote faster beard growth

the 10 COMMANDMENTS for PREVENTING RAZOR BUMPS & INGROWN HAIRS
1. THOU SHALT NOT USE DIRTY BLADES!
Avoid shaving with dull, over-used razor blades. And be sure to keep your slightly used tools as clean as possible. Scrub the cutting heads of your tools with soap, hot water, and rubbing alcohol to destroy bacteria. Pro Tip: even brand new blades still need to be cleaned.

Plus, more blading the skin leads to micro cuts through which bacteria is more likely to enter and this leads to razor burn.
3. DO NOT TAKE PREP TIME IN VAIN!
Wash or steam the skin for 2 to 3 minutes with warm water. Then apply the shaving cream leaving it on for at least 2 minutes to really soften the hair.
4. THOU SHALT NOT GO AGAINST THE GRAIN!
Shaving against the grain (upwards) may get you a closer shave but doing so also increases ingrowns. Shave in the direction of hair growth…it’s usually downwards. Confirm this by doing a face/ body inspection to see which way your hair grows.
5. THOU SHALT NOT PRESS!
Avoid pressing too hard on the skin with the blade. If you follow STEP #3, then a gliding, light touch is all you need. The hair stubble should literally fall away with little or no pressure from the blade. Pressing hard is the main cause of shaving irritation! Be gentle so as to prevent the hair from being cut so low that it falls beneath the top layer of skin.
6. THOU SHALT NOT PASS, PASS, PASS!
Avoid too many quick passes with the blade. One pass per hairy area - going 1-2 inches downward at a time - will prevent ingrown hairs. Always shave like you might cause damage, not like you’re mowing the front lawn.
7. THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT OVER SHAVING!
Avoid shaving too often. This rule is hard to follow, especially if you have to be beardless for your job…but if you are prone to ingrowns, try hair removal with electric clippers (the barber kind of clippers). The results are not super close but no one but you will know the difference. Provided your skin can handle these alternatives try waxing, depilatory, lasering or an epilator.
8. THOU SHALT NOT CLOG!
Avoid using skin/pore clogging creams or lotions since they keep hairs from growing up. After a shave, keep your skin bare; let the tiny army breath, and allow those newly shaved, microscopic hairs to grow out just in time for the next shave. If your objective is smooth, bump-free skin following a shave or wax, then right after hair removal allow the skin to heal first. Promote healing by proper shaving techniques followed by 70% rubbing alcohol which kills any bacteria that may enter those micro cuts created from the shave and prevents the onset of razor burn. Sure your skin will be a little dry at first but this is a temporary tradeoff. Wait 2 hours then moisturize.
9. KEEP THY SMOOTH SKIN FREE!
At least for the first day or two, try to avoid tight fitting clothing around the Adam’s apple (neck) and/or below the waistline region. Newly shaved hair follicles need room to grow up.
10. REMEMBER TO EXFOLIATE!
Whether you shave, sugar, wax or epilate, not enough exfoliation to remove excess layers of skin can lead to ingrown hairs. There are two types: chemical exfoliation (AHA, BHAs) and physical exfoliation (beads, coffee scrubs, gloves, brushes). Exfoliators like the WIZKER brush have soft and firm bristles. When you follow these 10 tips religiously, you’ll prevent razor bumps and ingrown hairs permanently!
