Thread: Shower substitute?

Like many, I generally shave after a morning shower. On weekends, however, I usually go in for a hot (actually very hot-a taste I developed in Japan) bath in the afternoon and a shave in the evening. On these occasions, I use the following prep:

Hot towel - I heat the towel in the traditional way, using hot water from the tap (I do have the water heater set as high as it will go).

Lather - I build the lather in a mug, but this is just my way, face lather or scuttle will work as well. I leave the lather on while I strop the razor.

Hot towel - this actually removes most of the lather so.

Relather

Shave.

The hot towel, lather, hot towel sequence effectevely washes and hydrates the hair.
