Dude, using a DE takes more time, as you tend to go slower, and concentrate more. So you might run out of hot water before you get it all smooth. Of course, it depends on how much you have to shave. If you're BBC, it takes some time to shave with a DE. I usually DE right after a shower, in front of the mirror.

I always shave in the shower. Just easier for me, and i find i dont get irritation from the razor that wsy, like i do if i shave in front of the mirror. However i use a mach 3 razor, not a de. So if thats what u want to use, i cant really comment, as i have zero experience with using one either in or out of the shower

Sooo...I'm afraid to do this, because I'm pretty sure it'll end up looking like the shower scene from Psycho. Do you find that you bleed a lot doing it in the shower? -

I used to shave in the shower all the time with my headblade and my fusion. Could do it in no time at all. No nicks, no cuts at all. And id get it baby soft every time.

I shave with both a DE and a Headblade. Haven’t been game to use DE in the shower though. I get great shaves in the shower with my HB and save my DE for when I have a bit more time to do a true BBS shave in front of the mirror.

I shower shave without a mirror, so I use only my Fusion in there.
My DE and straight are used only with my mug and brush at the sink. -

I shave with a DE in the shower. Just stretch the skin.

My own routine has been (at around 12 days continuously) has been a hot shower immediately followed by a shave, followed by more hot water on the head for a second pass, then cold water to finish off and clean off stray shaved hair. I use aloe vera gel as an aftershave outside the bathroom.

When I was shaving my head, I did it exclusively in the shower (after 20+ years, you learn your head), only Mach III (the buzzy one). I did my "sideburns" after, in front of the mirror.
It's better if there is someone in the shower, doing it for you!
