You should NOT be using a straight edge razor. When you cut the skin at the hairline. Curly hair curls beneath the skin. Black men should not use the same razors as their white counterparts. Posner used to make a razor that had a razor guard over the blades.

Check a beauty supply store. Good luck.

Posner used to make them. Called Bump Fighter. Whatever you do, avoid multiple blade razors 🪒 and any razor without a guard.

You want to cut your hair JUST above the skin. Not at or below the skin.

As a cisgender woman, nothing sexier than stubble so hopefully your woman won’t mind!
