Thread: Shaving with a hangover is not good...

Not really a problem I face in Thailand. I hardly ever drink there. But I'm happy to offer free (even if unhelpfull) advice.

Yeah, shaving with a hang over sucks. I take out my gillette bostonian when I have a rough morning.

I never get drunk enough to cause a hangover unless I plan to sleep it off the next day. It's a policy that has served me well.

If I tried any form of shaving with a hangover it would turn nasty in so many ways.

Greg, that's an old cure dating back to the Battle of Britian. I never tried it, but I understand it does work.

Nun2sharp,

I'm a fan of drinking while shaving. It steadies the nerves.

Nun2sharp,

I have been known to go for a walk round the block when I'm hung over, if it's not too warm - so on principle it sounds good to me! I read from the book of not getting drunk enough to get a hangover these days.

Steady the nerves? Nerves about what!

My SR shave experiences have also led to these conclusions:

Honing while inebriated does not produce a smoother shave

Shaving after drinking single malt and with a cigar in your mouth does not produce a better shave

it's really not a big deal to shave hungover, i do it all the time, the trick is to have a lot of vitamin b12 plus electrolytes, that'll cure what ails you.

I'm with you on this one. I do however sometimes have a bit of hair of the dog in the morning. not to make my shave happen but to take the edge off the headache. one morning went to breakfast with my in-laws, who aren't really fun, and it was about 8:30-9am and I ordered a drink. they gave me a kind of weird look, I just said,"hair of the dog" and took a big gulp.
