Yet Another Shaving Question

[JonTheBaller]

I have been shaving first with the grain and then against it for a while now because I enjoy that smooth skin feeling. However, I can only shave every 3 days now. If I try to shave in under 3 days, I just end up cutting up my skin because it's too sensitive. Is there anything I can do about this? Also, can I be doing to eliminate razor bumps? I wipe my face with alcohol pads and then apply Neutrogena aftershave balm.

What razor do you use? I use an xtreme 3, many use the mach 3. Schick is going to be coming out with a four blade razor soon. I usually never shave against the grain (ingrown hair), and usually never pass more than twice on the same area.

I only got razor burn/bumps the first few weeks I shaved. After shaving nearly every day for about 5 years now I have no problems...
