Thread: poll-hot towels after shaving

I've never tried this, but I think I will now. I always figured it would inflame the face.

Try What????

Shower hot towel first shave then hot towel 2nd shave rinse with warm water then plenty of cold water. Then i use pfb vanish followed by taylors bay rum plus after shave cream done

Hmmm, never much time for the hot towel. I think I may have to give it a try over the weekend when I have more time.

I will let you know, I bet its amazing.

I only use cold water after I shave. I used to use hot water but I love the way the cold water feels and now it's just the way I do it.

Ok then, when does one stop with the wet towels, commence with the dry ones and get on with the day?

I usually just do a cold water rinse. seems to do the job.

Cold water rinse and after shave. When that cold water hits the skin, it sends a shock through my body and any little cuts or weepers immediately stop and close.

Its invigorating when its summer, but not as much when its cold outside.

I go with a towel that is as cold as I can get it under the sink... (pretty cold at my house)

I've never used hot towels, always a hot rinse immediately after shaving, then alum and a ice cold rinse and a/s or a/s balm to finish.
