Thread: Hot or Cold Shave?

I tried the cold water shave and do think it works better. Your hairs goosebump up a little and it's easier to knock 'em down. It's a good theory, anyway, or a good mental image.

The cold water is much easier on my skin, too. Come summer I'll keep my cucumber/aloe witchazel in the fridge for that extra Ooh!

However, like Pizzabox, I'll still go with warm water if the bathroom is cold. That's for comfort, though, not for shave closeness.

Neither cold nor hot, somewhere in between. I find hot water, hot towels etc., are not the best thing for me.
