My sensitive face is screaming from the thought of using a razor to shave... I tried even straight razor, but notjing gets the job done without a week of suffering afterwards... What am I doing wrong comrades :(
If you go to a barber and they put a hot towel on your face and use a soothing shaving gel (as opposed to shaving foam) and a mostoisturizing aftershave, it can apparently make a huge difference, but that's not an economically sound solution.
You can recreate some of this at home but it's also not practical to have a hot steamed towel esp if you're running late.

Also, the hot towel idea sounds good, I have super thick facial hair and I guess making it softer could help the overall process. Also, "let's steam the towel" sounds sexy af
There's also pre shave oil which softens the hair, makes it easier to cut and less likely to pull. I have to use it if I go more than a few days without shaving.
