    Default How long does it take you???

    As the days go by, my shaves improve nicely but, are still taking a long time (about 20 minutes).

    Be honest now... How long do your shaves take? Don't include prep time etc.

    Note: This is not a contest and I don't recommend that anyone sacrifices safety in the name of expedience.

    If I don't include prep it would be 5 to 10 minutes max.!

    15 minutes without prep, i feel improving constantly though...dont know if it is the skin getting used to the blade or my technique...( i have been shaving straight for 5 months now.)

    It depends, I can get a very comfortable shave in 5 minutes which is my norm, but for extra close (not quiet BBS yet) I could spend 20.

    Without prep I spend a maximum of 5 min.s on the face, and somewhere between 7-10 minutes to do the head. (And I have the scars to prove it )

    Shiiiiit. Some of you guys are super fast! About half an hour... without prep. Although I think last time I got it in twenty minutes, so I'm improving.

    I can shave in 10-15 minutes. If I have time, I go slower and enjoy the time.
