You're having to adapt by adding in so much 'faff' for something to work properly. Something that all the posters on all the forums are trying desperately to convince the entire male population of the world is better than what they are currently doing.
Rinse, slap, shave, rinse.

joe mcclaine said:Ah yes, but what I'm saying is if you started monkeying about with all the lotions, potions, pre-shaves and what-not then shaves with whatever razor might have been better.
I'm not trying to get anyone to shave with anything else. All I'm doing is pointing out the fact that the boards are full of advice telling people "how to make DE shaving work" which seems to me a load of sanctimonious old cobblers to be honest.
I don't give a monkeys chuff what anyone shaves with.

lindyhop66 said:Wow! Is it really possible to get a close, irritation-free shave with cold water?
Dry face, warm lather and you rinse the razor with cold water? Do you shave after a hot shower or can you just do it anytime and get good results?Helveticum said:lindyhop66 said:Wow! Is it really possible to get a close, irritation-free shave with cold water?
Never looked back since I switched to it. No irritation whatsoever, good for skin in long term too. I do however make lather with warm water - simply because it's faster. I also apply my lather to a dry face - as recommended by the old shave manual.
