Learning to shave is often viewed as a rite of passage for young men. Most boys have a significant amount of facial hair by the end of puberty.

- Shave in the direction the hair grows. Don't shave against the grain.
- Avoid repeating strokes with your razor.
- No matter what your father used to do, don't stretch your skin taut as you shave; always leave your facial skin relaxed.
