Would I use this instead of aftershave, or in addition to aftershave? If the latter, which should I use first? Thanks in advance!

You can use it instead of aftershave. I like to add a spray or two of whatever cologne my wife and daughters gave me for my birthday or Christmas, etc. It has no scent of its own. As good or better than most lotions, which is what it is.

I agree with Toby - once my face got "broken in" I find that it gives a great shave with no irratation. The cleanign fluid ended up lasting 45 days with daily use (cleaned with econ setting each time). Only once did it require a cleaning at the longest duration, and that was because I had taken it on a 5 day vacation without the cleaning base. For the record, I don't use any pre shave ltion like Toby. No need to. It shaves close and smooth withtout it for me.

I personally use shave cream (C. O. Bigalow form Bath and Body Works) applied with a shaving brush, and I get a great shave every time. I have not tried the gels, but I think that any shave cream or gel would work just fine. By the way, I am now into my third week (19 days and counting) and I am still using my origanal Progilde blade. I never got more than 7 days from my Atra Plus blades. Hope that this helps.

If the bottle says Pre-Electric, it is the Pre-Shave and not the aftershave. I use both and the pre-electric is the product to use before you shave. It's worked great for me for many years.

the only one I have tried is the Eucalyputs and menthol in the green and white tube. Great stuff I will never use another shaving cream. P.S. the Proraso after shave is really great. Makes for a wonderful shave all day.

I've used both, but the smoothest shave will come from a product that does not foam up. I wouldn't recommend either typical shave "cream," which is foam, or the gel, which turns into foam as soon as you smear it around. Very little of the foam is actually at the point of contact between the blade and your beard, so most of it just goes to waste without helping lubricate. If you don't want to mix your own cream in a bowl, I recommend something like Cremo Cream Cremo Astonishingly Superior Shave Cream, 6 Fluid Ounce . I got a couple bottles for free several years ago in a promotion, and I've never gone back to shave gels out of a can.

If the question is about Drakkar spray, it is a cologne. I've been using Drakkar for over 25 years and I am not aware of an aftershave. They do have a great aftershave balm that comes in a squeeze tube or bottle. It is very soothing after a shave.

No, not necessary and never have washed it off. It's alcohol based and won't harm the skin. I usually follow up after the shave with an after shave skin conditioner or sun block.

Is it the comb attachment that is used for scalp issues and hair regrowth? Do you use it before you shampoo of after and when it has dried? Do you use any serums when you use this product for these purposes? Thank you.

I use TEND as an aftershave. I do not use anything else. I found that by eliminating other products I have received the best results.

This is to be used AS the aftershave, as that is when it works most effectively. Thank you for shopping with us! ~GigglesWorld

Why not just use an after shave or cologne? I doubt this would work, but I'm not a chemist.

I do it BEFORE every shave. It seems to work pretty good but it is still one more step that takes about a minute and a half a day. I think it's worth the money especially if you are on a budget and need to count dollars, but I don't. The jury is still out for me.....

I used to shave by chest/abs with a razor and I often got ingrowns, and then I started using the Norelco I use for my face and found that I got an even closer shave and less possibilty of ingrowns. I looking to buy the bodygroomer because I doubt shaving my body with my face shaver is good for the blades. How "bad" is the stubble? If I'm looking for a clean, hairless look do you recommend this or should I just continue shaving with my face shaver? Thanks.

Mine came as aftershave splash, but you never know... I hope it works for you.

You can use a spray bottle to spritz it on your face or you cam pour a small amount in your hands and splash it on much like a man applied aftershave. I use the spray bottle but both work equally as well. Hope this helps.

If you are using it as a balm or conditioner like it is intended, you just use a bit less and massage it in. It doesn't have the consistency of a wax, so don't go into thinking it is a sculpting wax type product. It's a great conditioner, you just have to tailor the amount to your beard. It doesn't take much in the palm of your hand. for a fool beard, I use less than a "dime size".
