The video opens with the father Shan, a gaming influencer, meticulously shaving his beard while his three young children watch intently. As the stubble falls to the sink, the children's reactions are priceless; one starts to cry, another covers his eyes in fear, and Shan's eldest daughter can't help but burst into laughter. The video quickly gained traction with netizens and has now been shared over 1,000 times on Weibo.
"舍弃小胡子!不浓密不变粗,几毛就能轻松搞定 娱乐圈王者的微博视频" (Say goodbye to the little beard! A few strokes and it's done, even if it's not dense or thick), Shan captioned the video, offering his followers a step-by-step tutorial on how to properly shave facial hair. The video garnered a myriad of positive comments, with some users expressing their amusement at Shan's children's reactions.
"你问我借钱啊,我说没有 你让我想想办法,明明是你没有钱🤔 诗卓卓丫的微博视频" (@真百分百土豆) commented, " '@真百分百土豆 刮完胡子好像你啊😳😳'" added another, a sentiment echoed by many others, with some users noting that the children's expressions made them chuckle.
The video's popularity highlights the growing trend of Chinese social media influencers sharing daily aspects of their lives with their followers. Shan's tutorial, while light-hearted, also offers valuable advice on proper shaving techniques, targeting not only his usual audience of gamers but also men seeking guidance on this grooming topic.
In this informative and entertaining clip, Shan advises men on the best time to shave, emphasizing the importance of a well-rested face. Mentioning that the skin's sebaceous glands are most active during sleep, Shan states that the early morning hours are the ideal time to shave, as the skin is more relaxed and less prone to irritation. However, he cautions against shaving immediately upon waking up, suggesting that it is best to wait 20-30 minutes after rising.
Another crucial aspect of shaving that Shan covers is the growth direction of facial hair. Mentioning that facial hair generally grows downward, he does caution that some areas Shan, such as the chin and mustache, can grow in various directions. To avoid irritation and ingrown hairs, he recommends following the natural growth direction of the hair when shaving. For the areas where the hair growth direction is not apparent, Shan suggests taking time to be patient and gentle to prevent any damage to the skin.
While this adorable video of a father teaching his son how to shave has captured the hearts of Weibo users, it also serves as a reminder of the growing influence of social media in daily life. As influencers like Shan continue to share valuable life hacks, grooming tips, and personal anecdotes, their followers benefit not only from entertainment but also from the wealth of information they provide.
In conclusion, Shan's viral video of teaching his son how to shave not only provided valuable grooming advice but also amusement for the millions of people who have viewed the video. As Shan's following continues to grow, it will be interesting to see what other aspects of everyday life he will cover in his future posts.
