Mikekoz13:
I have a much simpler routine:

1) Wet and wash the face and head with soap and hot water (in the shower)
2) Apply that day's choice of shaving product (that could include Shave Secret but not always)
3) Shave with the grain.... face first andthen the head
4) Re-apply shaving product
5) Shave against the grain
6) usually twice a week I first wash my face and head with BaldGuyz Wash Gel
7) Twice a week I use Apricot scrub after shaving
8) Apply Nivea Extreme After Shave balm
9) after getting out of shower, look in mirror and say, "Damn that looks good!!!"

D.A.L.U.I.:
I usually scrub my face, or the part not now covered w/ the goat, with the loofa pad after I've worked on the dome, then after the shower I put a hot washcloth on the dome, and leaving the face wet, dry off and address shaving, first the face with Fusion Gel, then brush of some Headslick and clean the dome last  Shaving around the goat is a work in progress, I'm trying different ways--but that's got a way to go until I learn what works best.  When I rub down the dome w/ Nivea Extreme Care, I also rub that into the face--feels good, light unobtrusive smell. 

rward086:
I usually like shaving with a cream or oil on my face, compared to a gel or soap on my head.

rodubls:
I always shave after a shower, so I use my head shed on my face in the shower.
I soak my brush in a bowl and put a little water on my soap puck.
I wet my face several times after I get out while I do the rest of my routine.
Use shave secret to lube up. I also have some AOS oil but it is pretty thick and can cause a mess.
Make my lather (sometimes I'll substitute the soap for a cream).
Work in the lather on my face for like a minute.
Get to work with the HD. A few passes with the grain and then one or two against the grain.
Still haven't mastered the DE razor and my going ATG upper lip, so I use the CVS3 to clean that up.
Alum Bar
Witch Hazel
Ice
Clubman Pinaud OG
Lotion, Nivea or Poraso.
Marvel at how much time that just took me. However, on days when I'm in a hurry....I pay.
