The Bevel Electric Foil Shaver is designed for men with coarse or curly hair who want a close shave without the irritation that often comes with traditional razors.

Whether you're new to electric shavers or looking to refine your technique, this guide walks you through a step-by-step routine to get the most out of your shaver. From preparation to aftercare, you'll learn how to achieve a barbershop-quality shave at home.
Why Choose an Electric Foil Shaver?
Electric foil shavers are a great option for men with sensitive skin or those prone to razor bumps. Unlike traditional razors that cut hair at skin level, foil shavers use oscillating blades beneath a thin foil to lift and cut hair, reducing the risk of nicks and cuts. The Bevel Electric Foil Shaver takes this a step further with three flexible blades that follow the contours of your face and neck, ensuring a close shave without pressing too hard.
For men with coarse or curly hair, electric shavers can be particularly beneficial. The auto-sensing technology adjusts the power based on hair density, so you get an even shave without tugging or pulling. Plus, it's wet or dry ready, so you can shave in the shower or at the sink, making it a versatile addition to your grooming routine.
- Ideal for sensitive skin and coarse hair
- Can be used wet or dry
- Reduces risk of razor bumps and ingrown hairs
Preparing Your Skin and Hair
Preparation is key to a comfortable shave. Start by washing your face with a gentle cleanser to remove dirt and oil. This helps prevent clogged blades and reduces the chance of irritation. For dry shaving, ensure your skin is completely dry. For wet shaving, you can use the shaver in the shower, but be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for wet use.
Applying a pre-shave oil can make a significant difference. The Bevel Pre-Shave Oil, formulated with sunflower seed, castor, and olive oils, creates a lubricating layer that softens hair and skin, allowing the shaver to glide smoothly. This is especially helpful if you have coarse hair or are prone to razor bumps. Apply a few drops to your face and neck, massaging it in gently.
- Always start with clean skin
- Use pre-shave oil for extra glide and protection
- Decide between wet or dry shaving based on your preference
Shaving Technique for a Close, Comfortable Shave
Hold the shaver at a 90-degree angle to your skin, letting the foil rest flat. Use short, gentle strokes, moving against the grain for a closer cut. For areas like the jawline and neck, use your free hand to stretch the skin taut, which helps the blades catch more hair. Avoid pressing too hard—let the shaver do the work to prevent irritation.
The Bevel Electric Foil Shaver features three flexible blades that adapt to every contour, so you don't need to maneuver the shaver awkwardly. Move it slowly and methodically, overlapping each stroke slightly to ensure you don't miss any spots. If you're shaving longer hair, you may need to trim it first to avoid clogging the foil.
- Shave against the grain for a closer result
- Stretch skin with your free hand for a smoother glide
- Don't press down; let the shaver's technology handle the work
Aftercare: Preventing Razor Bumps and Irritation
After shaving, rinse your face with cool water to close pores and remove any loose hair. Pat your skin dry with a clean towel—don't rub. Applying an alcohol-free aftershave or bump control product can help soothe and prevent irritation. The Bevel Post Shave Bump Control contains 10% glycolic acid to exfoliate dead skin cells and green tea to calm redness, making it an excellent choice for those prone to razor bumps.
Moisturizing is also essential. Use a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated without clogging pores. This helps maintain the skin's barrier and reduces the likelihood of ingrown hairs. Remember to clean your shaver after each use, removing any hair and debris, and store it in a dry place to prolong its life.
- Rinse with cool water and pat dry
- Apply an alcohol-free bump control product
- Moisturize daily and clean your shaver regularly
