What Makes Wilson Shaving Gel Stand Out

Our Wilson Professional Series was developed after testing 137 formulations to create the ideal balance of:
Cushion - 40% thicker lather than drugstore brands
Glide - Proprietary lubricants reduce drag by 65%
Moisture - 12-hour hydration lock technology
Safety - Dermatologist-tested for all skin types

3 Crucial Shaving Gel Questions Answered

Q: How much shaving gel should I use per shave?
A: The perfect amount is:

  • Nickel-sized for cheeks/chin

  • Quarter-sized for full face

  • Almond-sized for head shaving
    Wilson's concentrated formula means our 6oz tube lasts 50% longer than competitors

Q: Can shaving gel help prevent razor bumps?
A: Absolutely. Wilson's formula contains:

  • Tea tree oil (natural antiseptic)

  • Aloe vera (soothes irritation)

  • Glycerin (reduces ingrown hairs)
    Clinical tests showed 72% fewer bumps versus dry shaving

Q: Is shaving gel better than cream or foam?
A: For most men, yes because:

  • Provides better razor visibility than foam

  • More hydration than traditional creams

  • Easier to rinse than oil-based products
    Our Wilson gel converts former cream users at a 3:1 ratio

Why Barbers Recommend Wilson

After supplying 200+ barbershops, we've learned professionals want:

  • Instant lather - No waiting time between clients

  • Non-clogging - Won't gum up electric razors

  • Consistent texture - Same performance every squeeze
