    With beard prep, lather production and stropping - about 20 min. This includes with/against/accross the grain. I insist on a baby butt smooth shave!

    Depending on the razor, soap/cream, brush and brain activity level:
    slow: 30 minutes
    normal: 15 minutes
    quick: 6 minutes

    For my face, usually under 10 minutes, but I have a moustache and goatee. It also depends on how messy I have been and if I use lather or latherless cream (with latherless I can be all done in 5 minutes.)

    Head is similar - under 10 minutes, less if I use latherless cream.

    In a rush on a daily basis I only do the WTG pass and call it good, so about 10 mins max. But I'm a newb and that time's been dropping consistently.

    About 20 minutes for prep, lathering up, stropping, and 2 passes.

    I timed myself last night. It took 27 minutes to do three passes. This included building lather, shaving, cleaning up everything, and stropping blade after. I felt like I was going about it fairly leisurely, definitely not hurried.

    WTG + XTG + ATG + WP = BBS < 10 ~ 15 min.
