Hi guys,
Anyone here tired of all the steps involved?
I hasn't shaved for 2 days and this morning I had to do the following:
Shower
First Lather
Hot Towel preparation + application on top of first lather
Lather up properly and shave WTG, XTG
Lukewarm water rinse (hot water stings)
Alum
Clean-up
Cold water Rinse
Air Dry
Swipe of Cotton Pad with few drops of Witch Hazel/Tea Tree oil (Boots)
Aftershave Balm
A Bit of moisturiser on slightly dry areas of face
Few drops of EDT/Cologne back of neck/clothes ...
I do have a dense, tough and pain-in-the-ass beard and as much as I enjoy shaving it off , need it take so long?
SWMBO is quicker in the mornings![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Over the next few weeks I intend to do the same but without Alum. Then without the Witch Hazel, then without both to see if there's any real difference.
