i have shaved in the shower since the first time I shaved regularly. I've only been forced to stand at the sink just a few times. The constant flow of clean hot water and steam keep the stubble very soft and easy to shave. It guarantees I'll have the closest shave possible. My scalp starts to cool down and become dry while I stand at the sink. To be honest each of us has to figure out which method works best for him.

I used to shower at the sink; never tried it under the shower because I always used shaving cream.

Wherever. Usually either in front of a TV or a computer in my house. I have an electric shaver. After I feel it and it feels smooth, then I go to a mirror, and look for spots that I missed and do touch ups there.

well, should I let one of my razors just rest on my skin, so no pressure, then it'll split it open and sink into it a bit.. that's how sharp a straight is.
So, no, you don't want that to fall anywhere near your feet and you don't want to be in a slippery environment. (I shave with pants on
)

well, yes and no, it tends to be a matter of pressure and angles, blades are funny that way.
But 1 thing I'll never do is grab after a falling razor(you really have to train at that, because you instinctively will
), better it broken than my hand cut open.

I change my vote to the shower. So much faster and easier.

I tried the shower but I could never get my razor clear of hair that way. I have this crappy showerhead that pretty much tinkles on you so I have to find a stream of water to clean the razor.
The sink is my spot. I can rinse, tap and shake my razor after each pass, making sure I get as slick as possible.

Not even mentioning the issue that your shower should have more water pressure then the sink, you know you can tap your razor on the shower wall. When your done you can splash some water on the wall. Viola shaved it the shower clean razor, clean shower. :-)

Tried it in the shower but can't get the hang of it. Old dogs and new tricks I guess.

It's about what works best for you, anyways, so if the new trick doesn't fit you, cool. At least you know you tried it and it doesn't work for you.

Sure the shower will be clean from my hair but what about my lay-day's? She has long hair and it pretty much takes over the tub!
