Talking at length about prep, hot towels, numbers of passes, etc. and then not mentioning the razor used makes a reply of "30 minutes" irrelevant, as that would be near normal for a straight shave, but quite long for a DE shave.
Gents, don't keep us in the dark, if you want to add a meaningful reply, please do mention the type of razor.
