shaving the dome vs. shaving the face

(1/3) > >>

warhawk:
hello fellow chrome domes....i know that a majority of us R very particular about shaving the dome by using hot water on the dome to open the pores, shave cream/gel, quality razor, followed by a cold water rinse and an ice cube rub to close the pores, towel dry, & air dry, then apply either witch hazel or aloe vera gel or anytype of aftershave lotion.  now.... big question....do u use the same routine 4 your face?

i'll start: no.... i don't use a cold water rinse or an ice cube rub on my face.  however...i follow the same routine except 4 the cold water rinse and the ice cube rub.  so... how 'bout u?  do u have the exact routine 4 your dome and face OR is there a difference?  what's your story/routine?

Good post Mel. I had actually thought about this the other day.

I am the same 2 you. I do not use a cold water rise afterwards. However when face shaving I like to use an alcohol based aftershave(Old Spice). It burns like hell but it has been something I've done since I first started shaving.

Great post, Mel.  I'm all for keeping it simple.  I use the same routine for the face and dome.  Except that I have recently gone back to shaving my face with and my Braun electric.  I was just getting too many nicks and cuts with my quattro.

Do you find the alcohol content in that numbs any afterburn you've aquired whilst shaving?

Same routine for face and dome, except I use the HeadBlade only on my dome.  :D
