Thread: newbie best shave ever

Holy super shaving batman!!!!! This was hands down the best shave that I have ever, ever felt. I have been using a shavette for about 7 months now and I have always enjoyed my time with my razor but today was just amazing. I used a new gilette blade with some mama bear "america" soap and a VH brush from walmart. Today was different though, Instead of trying to build the later on my face I used a cheap ceramic bowl and set that with some lather on a candle warmer believe it or not. Some of you out there may want to try this. When I put the nice hot later on my face and the blade came down it was just plain magic. When my wife felt it she was just astonished. This is what I was hoping for all this time and I just want to say thanks to all of you who's advice helped me get here.

Very cool and congrats. Now what the hell does this candle warmer thinga majig look like?

a candle warmer is just kinda like a hot plate for a candle, it heats up the wax to let the scent out without burning the wick. I had no idea what these were till I got married and I never have used it till now but it worked great. its the white and black thing

Yup gonna have to remember this for when I get home! and really be able to enjoy a nice shave

the wife just told me that you can find candle warmers in the candle isle of walmart for like 10$ if you wanna give it a shot.

Yup just gotta wait until i get home. it may one be a little over a month but the anticipation is going to drive me nuts. But I can deffinatly see getting one and then plus when i am not using it the wife can use it for her candles. Kinda dual use LOL

congrats on a great shave it makes it all worth while dosent it? thumbs up on the candle warmer idea that is thinking outside the box

after that shave I just wanna go do it again. Come hair grow!!!! thanks for the imput guys

i could mount a coleman stove or bunson burner in my shaveroom

I like the candle warmer idea. I use a small Chefmate crok pot.
