I have found the shaving during a bath results in the best shave I have ever had. I think the difference is i put a hot washcloth on my face right before, i lather up. My face is very smooth. using a 40's SS or 69 super adjustable with crystal blades. 2nd is after a shower and shaving with no bath or shower is the worst. Figured this might help a fellow new shaver
I shave before I go to bed. Gives you a nice clean feeling, and saves time in the morning. Plus I can take my time and get a real nice shave.
I am a morning shaver, I shave right after I get out of the shower so that everything is still nice and saturated and I can get a nice shave without too much trouble or irritation.
I shave after I shower in the evening/night. Showering and shaving at night saves valuable time in the morning, plus it takes me a while to shave. I don't mind though, it's a relaxing ritual to have before bed. So far I haven't tried shaving during a bath, but I have placed a hot washcloth on my face after a shower which is nice.
After shower in the morning. (Occasionally, if I suspect the morning will be rushed, I'll shave at night, after either a shower or applying hot washcloths.)
+1 I have no choice but to shave in the a.m. If I tried to shave at night I'd be standing at attention in front of my Commander's desk by lunch. Best shave is after a hot shower!
I shave in the morning, and I don't find it too hectic, but I do get up at 6 AM for an 8 AM job. I haven't actually found much difference in irritation when shaving w/ or w/out a shower, but I do quite an extensive prep with washcloths and PSOs and stuff.
In the AM after a shower. On occasion due to working out of my home I may put off shaving until after lunch. Need the good prep with skin cream and hot towel to get good comfortable shave.
In the morning after a comprehensive prep. Had to shave in the morning for 30 yrs while in the military and it's habit now. My wife says I'm to old to change. Besides, I like to look fabulous when I go out doing all the stuff that needs done.
I set my clock early on work mornings so that I can shave after bath.(no shower in this old house) I find it is the best way to start the day. That being said I do once in a great while shave at night. but never enjoy it as much. Fuzzy
I am a morning shaver, just after the shower. However, if and when I get good at the BBS shave I might do it before bed. The wife might like that...
For me, I have to shave in the morning following a shower. It wakes me up. It allows me to focus and clear my mind. It invigorates and makes me feel fantastic. It is the only bright spot in the morning before work!
