Shower when??
« on: April 29, 2009, 11:32:24 AM »
Is there anyone here that does't shave in the shower?? I've tried it but just prefer to be at the sink where nothing gets in my eyes, I can see clearly etc.

So the question is... IS there anyone else that shaves AND THEN showers!

The hot water from the shower softens up the skin for shaving. So, I never shave before showering.

I used to shave after the shower, but in the shower is much easier.

i shave in the shower because for me it easier.  No need for a mirror, that is what your fingers are for....for feeling.  Feel around for those spots you might have missed.d 

I hardly ever shave at the sink.  it drips and runs down my back and so on.  Just do it in the shower and let it drip and do what ever it wasnts to do

Have fun

When I first started shaving my head I shaved then showered, never again. When the warm water would run against my head it would burn terribly, but also, I didn't really know what I was doing back then. Anyway I shave after I shower, it's been working well so I won't change it.

I've always shaved before I shower.  Have tried shavin in the shower, but don't like it much, as I tend to rush it.  However, when I shave I wash my head, exfoliate, apply foam, shave face, wash again, apply shave gel, and then shave head, so my scalp is well softened by the time I shave.  Even after all that prep, it only takes 10 to 12 mins. 8)

I agree with ya James. If I  shower first then shave I feel like I want to shower again to rinse off all the shaving goop and loose hairs etc.


What I do is wet my head. I do that by bending over the sink and using a cup to pour hot water all over my head, taking my time.

When I've soaked a few minutes I take a few drops of oil and rub them all over my head.

Next I apply HeadSlick to face and head. I let that set while I shave my face and to let the HeadSlick and oil soak into my head.

Then I get in the shower and feel around looking for any place that I missed. Shower, dry off, and then I feel nice and clean and shaved!
b*n!

Sounds like I am in the minority too.  I shave at the sink and then shower.  Before I shave, I rub hot water on my head.  I tried shaving in the shower, but did not like it.

why do you need a mirror for shaving?  I could understand using one for the face, but your noggin?  Do you not run your hand over your head anyways when you are shaving?  Its all in the feel bro's.  I think at slybald con 09 we need a trainig class lol

I don't dislike shaving in the shower.  I just feel better using the shower to clean up after shaving. I've also not found that the hot water helps anymore than just pouring it over my head before hand. I always did it that way and that's the way I'm gonna keep doing it! Us Mainahs don't like to change things, ya know??
