Hello mantic59,
… Hello mantic59,
Thanks for all your videos. Nowadys I shave with Merkur HD and no skin irritation, razor burns or rashes. Those were perennial problems ever since I started to shave. Art of Shaving is boon in my life. Although I have one question. I have these dark patches (like marks) on skin, over the neck area. Those were the places where I used to get rashes everytime. Nowadays no rashes, but looks like they have left a mark. Any suggestions to get rid of them? Thanks for your time.
pramamoo- Do you … pramamoo- Do you take any prescription medications? I’ve gotten those marks too, but they’re due to medicine I have to take. Otherwise they should disappear over time.
mantic59 – No I … mantic59 – No I don’t take any prescription medicines at all. So, probably as you said time will heal it. Thanks for your response and great help with the videos.
