A problem exists for most wet shavers. Namely, how to make wet shaving more time efficient without sacrificing the quality of the shave. One stumbling block has been the use of a Hot Towel. Use of the hot towel requires laying still for up to 3 minutes in a prone position. This proceedure adds needed time to the procedure as well as presenting the danger of falling back to sleep and being late to work. As a possible solution I present the Portable Hot Towel. Use of this piece of equipment frees ones hands to perform any other bathroom tasks,(except brushing one's teeth) while softening one's beard. Simply, I took a terry cloth wash cloth. Cut and hemed it 10 in long by 6 in wide. I then attached 4 strips of cloth (elastic might be better) to the 4 corners of the cloth (See photo 1). The cloth is then soaked in hot water and afixed to the shavers face.The mask is affixed in the same manner as a surgical mask (photo 2). Now your hands are View attachment 34207 free to lather your brush,change blades etc. while your beard softens.
That is really going to come in handy! I will probably make one next weekend unless I get caught up in restoring razors I just bought. Thank you for putting these pictures up. I volunteer in a hospital, in the emergency department, and this kind of looks like the mask the doctor puts on when he goes to patients in isolation because of the two straps around your head.
