does it prevent bumps on a black guys face after shave?

It certainly reduces bumps on my face, but Im white. I don't know if black skin is that different. I suppose it depends on the individual. This is the only product I have found that properly stops razor burn. Hope this helps

I would assume it works just as well as black guys as it does on white guys. It prevents any sort of bumps, irritation, or dryness on my face after shaving.

Washing your face before shaving removes the oil from and dries your skin resulting in small nicks that are more obvious on a freshly shaved face. Your natural facial oil also acts as a lubricant for the electric shaver.

Yes, use it as an aftershave and I would definitely recommend moisturizing with like some vitamin E or coconut oil because it will dry your skin out.

Yes. I had a lot of issues with razor burn and bumps. I actually have two of these. A small for travel and a large for home. I won't be going back to Gillette style anytime soon.

I have used them after shaving, but I don't consider myself having sensitive skin so I don't really know... but I would still recommend!

I use this over all areas I want to prevent ingrown hairs on. I apply right after drying off after getting out of the shower then follow with aveno men's sensitive skin aftershave balm.

Great question. My husband uses this after shaving. He says it burns like no other BUT it does keep ingrown hairs from occurring as frequently. I shave my "lady bits" almost daily and I use this and vitamin E oil. It has helped keep razor burn and ingrown hairs to a minimum but no, not 100% but it's way better than it was for both of us. I also highly recommend exfoliating before and after shaving. I hope I've helped.

It may when you first begin using it. It irritated me for the 1st couple weeks, my skin even started peeling and had sone discoloration. I assumed it was my body adjusting from years of chemicals to natural. I also have sensitive skin. I was ok after that except for using after I shaved.

My husband says it softens his skin, but not his beard. After he shaves with an electric razor, he uses an after-shave lotion and then applies Gene's Vitamin E cream.

Yes, it does in some cases. It depends on where you are shaving and what causes your bumps. Sometimes getting a cream to rub over the more 'sensitive' area's after a shave will completely eliminate those nasty little bumps even on the most sensitive areas. However, if we are talking legs, I have never gotten razor burn from an electric razor.

I never have, but I wash the screen after each shave so I guess it would work. Perspiration on my face is no problem. Understand, I'm in my 80s and close shaves are not as important as they used to be. Bit very satisfying.

Not being black, it's hard to say. I do have a somewhat curly beard though - not kinky. It seems to hook and pull up the hair better than any shaver I've ever had. I think that's why it makes my skin slightly pink after the shave. There is no discomfort from that though. So, guessing, I would say it's better than most.

My friend uses and astringent after he shaves, it helps clean the oils and prevents most of the problem

I am not a black man, but my beard does grow in all sorts of directions! What I can say is that I have learned to use this razor so that I have a smooth shave, comfortably. I am 83 and it is probably the best razor I have owned. I wish you the best and hope that you also have a great experience.

I would not recommend this for your face. You are likely to get little red bumps. They usually go away after a few hours, but it is really not the best option. I have heard really great things about this product though, and the reviews on amazon are very positive. Maybe give it a try: R.E.M. Spring Facial Hair Remover

I apply to a wet face right after my shower, and let it soak in as I prepare for my shave. Works for post shave as well.

It definitely helps mine. I don't get acne but razor bumps and ingrown hairs and this is now the only stuff I use.
