Thread: Shaving While Seated?

Ain't age a bitch. When I was 17 I totally crashed my dirt bike. The bike was a goner, I split my helmet in half and laughed about the scratch on my shoulder. 5 years ago, I set the kickstand down on the bike on fresh asphalt, the bike sunk and fell right on top of me trapping my leg. No injury to the bike but I walked with a limp for 6 weeks. On the plus side, you did get to learn how to shave relaxed sitting down. Hopping you have a very speedy recovery, and many safe open roads.

Hmmmm...a tabletop mirror, a small end table and a dish tub or large bowl with a pitcher of water, a cup of hot coffee......I could envision shaves out on the porch maybe ?? Just a thought.

The possibilities are endless.....i'm thinking hot tub, glass of scotch, and a straight razor!

Hey mr moo, sorry to hear of your accident, but at least you sound chipper

This was my first personal injury in 45 years on two wheels. I totalled one bike (I-95/1995 no injury) and dropped a few in parking lots and on sand/gravel, all low speed. Best advice, always dress for the fall.

Thanks Ed. My ankle feels like it went through a chipper but the rest of me is fine.


The stool didn't work, then it did. It was too tall and there was no place to brace the busted leg. I felt like I was unstable and it was hard to twist/turn to reach things. I changed course the other day and slid in a lightweight chair and made the barstool into a shaving table, towel rack, mirror stand, etc. Practically perfect.

I guess that setup is little easier than strapping yourself in a climbing harness and a rope anchored from the ceiling to hold you up....

Never thought about shaving while seated before. My wife pulls an office chair into the bathroom often when doing her makeup, and leaves it there a lot of the time... I think I won't bother putting it back in the office anymore, but rather sit in it when I shave.

Why not use a tray table and shave in bed, i reckon that would be great.

You guys are crazy. How is the bike Mr.Moo?
