Fogless mirror
« on: March 23, 2008, 04:37:56 PM »
I have always favored shaving in the shower blind (no mirror)just using my hand as a guide, but my wife bought me a fogless mirror from BBB and now I wish I had one sooner...
I always did a pretty good job without one but there were spots missed and the occasional nick or cut.  Now a perfect shave every time!!
I now highly recommend one... O0 O0

I have been a shower shaver even before going sly and the fogless mirror is essential.

Just an FYI, dont get the one that attaches to the shower head for water to run across the back... you cant take it with you on trips.

I had a fogless mirror once years ago, but It didn't work very well (probably a cheap model).  I'm a sink shaver, so it's not much of a concern for me.

My fogless mirror isn't the greatest, but it gets the job done. I don't think I can survive without it, actually. Now that I'm thinking about it, I'm going to go get a better one tomorrow.

  I have a cheep shower mirror that I use to wink at myself with.   :/O Seriously I don't use the mirror, I've pretty much got the head memorized. 
  If you do use a mirror, then I'd recommend using a cheep defogger spray for motorcycle helmets. I've had a small bottle of this stuff for years in my bike bag, and it works great in the shower.
  As a temporary fix, clean your DRY mirror with Barbasol shaving cream. It will keep the mirror fog free for a couple of showers.

No need to go to all that trouble if you get a fogless mirror...

  The advantage to using the spray is you can apply it to any mirror. I've used it in truck stops, motels, and even on the mirror in the RV shower.  Not to mention it does actually work great on the bike helmet.
  I'm not sure how much a special fog free mirror costs, but for $4.99 three years ago, the sprays not too bad.

I bought a real cheapo regular mirror from Wal-Mart a few years ago.  Handheld and not fogless.  I just run it under the water real quick while shaving in the shower and it gets rid of the fog easily.

I got a great one from Brookstone that's huge (8 inches dia) and has magnification --also has a little shelf above (or below, depending how it's mounted) for your razor.

Or you can always go directly to the manufacturer:

BTW, if mounting is a concern (those suction cups don't work in my shower), just get a couple of the water-resistant Command adhesive strips --hold up to 7 lbs! --works great!
