Thread: Towels: Steamer or hot water

I use hot towel also. But tbh i never tried to do it any other way so cant really compare.

I like to use a hot towel on the weekends when I'm really indulging myself. I shower, pre-shave oil/poraso, fill the sink with hot water and soak a hand towel, wring it out...rinse, repeat about 3x. I find it just helps soften up everything and the soothing warmth adds to the relaxation of a nice shave. As far as helping with the shave itself, I don't see a huge difference if any.
