What technique involves a smooth gliding motion toward you during shaving?

Freehand stroke
Reverse grip
Standard glide
Pull and stroke

The correct answer is: Freehand stroke

The technique that involves a smooth gliding motion toward you during shaving is the freehand stroke. This approach is crucial for achieving a close shave and involves using a single blade with the razor held at the proper angle against the skin. The smooth motion allows for a precise and controlled shave, reducing the risk of cuts or irritation. A freehand stroke is particularly effective as it helps in maneuvering the razor in a way that follows the contours of the face, allowing the barber to shave in the direction of hair growth for a smoother finish. Mastering this technique is often emphasized in barbering training, as it can significantly enhance the quality of the shave and improve client satisfaction.
