Thread: Cold water shave

I always have trouble getting my lather correct when using cold water - then again I do not prefer cold water shaves so I don't practice much.

But I did want to add one thing about the hot water heater going out.

You do know that you can heat water in a microwave, on the stove, on a grill, or even over a small fire.
<Sarcasm off>

Even though I am new to straights, I have been cold water shaving with my DE for over a month. Love the feel, and I get no irritation. Works well for me with my straight as well.

But I know that it is not for everyone
