Thread: Water temperature

Thanks for the help, it is actually very good to know that my lather issue is probably a skill or material thing and it not due to water heat, and the suggestions on how to get hot water are helpful as well. I think if it comes down to it, I'd just put in a small hot water dispenser like the kind you see at chinese markets (I have an old percolator, but I don't think I will ever get the smell of coffee out of it).

`Hot hot' lather may be undesirable as it could dry out more rapidly
on your face. I never use even close to the highest heat available
from my tap (which is very hot).

I wouldn't worry about the water temp. I just spent six weeks shaving with water that was maybe 70 degrees at the warmest. I still got great shaves, and I think my skin was better off. I have started shaving with cooler water now that I am home.
