    I'm pretty much a creature of habit: shower then shave. TBH I can't remember the last time I shaved without having a shower beforehand

    i dont shower before shaving most of the time. i don't see any real difference in the final result and i find it more relaxing to shave then shower.

    I don't either. I wash my face and then use a hot towel on my face.

    Works pretty well.

    I don't shower before shaving as well. I much prefer to shower after so I can get all the bits of shaving cream off me. I like the feel of the warm water on my freshly shaved face as well.

    I don't shower before I shave either. I know most people takes showers in the morning, but I take mine in the afternoon, yet I shave in the morning.

    I tried shaving after showering, but I didn't really see much of a difference in the quality of my shaves.

    I don't like showers and so just hot water clean my face before, cool face down with a cold water splash and cold shave.

    Most times, I'm not take a shower first . I wash my face with hot water. Rub my face with Proraso cream, then the Lather. Then I strop my razor, and watch some TV or even one minute. Back to the shower again and again Lather. than shaving. Works well for me

    Same here I don't shower before my shave.

    I usually don't do a prep either. I splash cold water on my face then strop. Then I grab my brush wet it under the sink a bit and wet my face with it and then I hit the soap with the semi wet brush.

    I don't notice any better results if I prep or shower or soak my brush.
