Also, I should learn how to shave properly, because I should want girls to like me.You mean all those girls she doesn't want you to have anything to do with?
Shaving only with the grain is guarantees a perfectly even half-shave, and that's about it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
The key is product (shaving cream or gel AND a moisturizer afterwards) and shaving WITH the grain.
I go with the grain and then against the grain, like tommyrot, using shaving cream during and aftershave...after. It's really hard to get some of those stray hairs on the neck, though.
Also, apply product from the back.
I don't understand. The back of what?
You mean all those girls she doesn't want you to have anything to do with?
Heh, yeah. Though I think she mostly means any girls she shows me.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
DH is capable of going on at great length abotu proper shaving technique. As I recall, he approved of kyan's instruction on the whole, but quibbled about something or other. I fear I didn't pay as much attention as I might have. He has a thick and fast growing beard, he's put some thought and experimentation into shaving. I don't think he's settled on his OTProduct yet.
Grr. Guy just came by and asked me for a phone number. Instead of asking me to write it down, or asking for scratch paper (of which I have bunches) he reached across my desk and took one of the last three 'While you were out" sheets I have left. We've never figured out how to get more of these. Dammit.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Your head. See -- this is why you're single. Not enough Queer Eye.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
What does aftershave do (besides smell like aftershave)? Does it help with minor cuts?
Last week I cut my neck while shaving - it was a really minor cut and it stopped bleeding after half a minute. But it was a really hot day, so whenever I was outside sweating, the salt in the sweat caused the cut to sting. Not fun.

Product for your hair, P-C. ita made the jump from shaving technique to general grooming without proper explication.
Bad ita. No goat.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Yay, P-C!! You rock!
See -- this is why you're single. Not enough Queer Eye.
If P-C married a man, I think his parents would have Issues.

Well, the show is called Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. I think he should be okay.

Well, that would be too much Queer Eye, then. Obviously, one must take the Goldilocks approach to Queer Eye quantification.
