Convert to cold water shaving
I've been shaving with cold water this week and liking it. Just might save the hot water for cold winter mornings.

Thanked: 38I got on the cold water shave bandwagon last fall. There were some interesting threads on the subject then. I see no reason to ever again turn the hot water handle on my bathroom sink. That first splash at 4am on a February morning is a real skin bracer...

+1 on trying this a cold water shave.
A cold water shave is wonderful, especially in the summer (IMHO). Now, a cold water shave without soap...that is a good edge testState v. Durham, 323 N.W. 2d 243, 245 (Iowa 1982) (holding that a straight razor is per se a "dangerous weapon").

I've been shaving cold for more years than I can recall. Works well for me though YMMV.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

I shave cold. Pre-wash, face lather, etc. But I have taken to going to well warm water for the final rinse. I cannot say why other than I just like it. Then I splash on some menthol!!! Go figure.

I have been doing it for years now. Works best for after a warm shower.
The older I get the more I realize how little I actually know.

Thanked: 10I've been considering going cold, and since tomorrow is supposed to hit mid-90s it seems like a great time to start.
