And it was another great one!
I varied a bit from my norm. I stropped, but then built my lather so it was a cold lather. I then hopped in the shower, jumped out and lathered up. I used a hot towel like normal, but before lathering again, splashed cold water and did a cold water shave. It was awesome, and I'm BBS all over my face and neck!
Is there such a thing as a hybrid prep? :)
I just felt like sharing... :D
Call it whatever you want, but the best prep is the type that works for you. Glad to hear it worked great for you. :tu

I think ice water would make it even more so.
The only thing which may or may not be a drawback is it seems like I'm feeling a bit more stubble ATG than normal this morning, but that could just be all in my head.
Try cold shaving before your shower, and without the hot towel, that is working for me.
