    Default Pre-shave prep the same on second/third passes?

    If you are going for second or third pass, either ATG or XTG, do you repeat the same pre-shave preparation process? Or to you tone it down a little bit? Thanks!

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Between passes I usually don't do anything but re-apply lather. The exception occurs when there is something about the original batch of lather that I don't like. Maybe it is too wet/dry or whatever. In that case I correct it and go on to the next pass.

    Default Pre-shave prep . . .

    Gentlemen:

    I apply pre-shave, lather and proceed to shave. Between passes comes a rinse followed by lather. That works for me. If the lather needs to be adjusted somewhere in the process, I do what's necessary and proceed with lathering. This process seems to work for me.

    Regards,
    Obie

    I'm newbie here, but what I did between pass is to make my face wet again then relather, reason is because I'm shave real slow so in the end of each pass my face is dry.

    updated: oops I skip read, I'm pretty much with what Obie does
