Thread: Beclothed or not?

In the old days when I used a Bic disposable I shaved in the shower with great speed and found suds and whiskers flying all about the place. Since switching to a straight, however, I now stand at the sink. During summer I get half dressed, as in pants and so on, and shave without a shirt because I guess I still associate shaving with being a little messy. But today, as it's getting chilly here, I found myself wearing a shirt before I started to shave. Lo and behold, not a drop of cream or the like was spilled which made me wonder - I wonder what other people wear when they shave.

So tomorrow, as I normally wear three piece suits in Winter, I might just try wearing a waistcoat, with sleeves rolled up - just for that extra bit of eccentricity.

So how about you, gentlemen?

Just a towel...but it is summer here

I go with a towel since I shave right out of the shower. It is freezing in my apartment, particularly after stepping out of a hot shower, but I get so distracted shaving I don't really notice it.

shaving at the sink without anything on is not wise practice. If one should accidentally drop the razor - you know where that razor may be headed - or should I say beheaded?!

with just pants and flip flops i get messey with the water i gues it is the kid still in me at 57.

Trousers and undershirt on weekdays, boxers and undershirt on weekends.

Nothing. So much freedom you don't have all this weight on your shoulders

Funny you should mention that. My normal routine has always been straight out of the shower, sometimes in the nude, sometimes with underwear on. Since I began shaving with a shaving with a str8, couple of months now, your very thought has occured to me more then once. Made me put a pair of jeans on and shave topless.

Khaos,
I don't think that applies to everybody. Did you see my avitar pic. I am freaking "OLD" , you know, like slow, not as fast as I used to be. I think I will keep my pants on. I love that little guy!

I usual wear a towel around the waist, on rare occasion I might wear underwear. As far as shirts go, I don't have control over my heat in my current apartment so it can get particularly cold some days, but I tuff it out without a T-shirt.

I never wear My glasses either. tried to shave with them on once or twice and didn't seem to work out or me so well. Maybe I'll try it again today.

Edit:
By the way, I was always messy with the canned goop, but haven't had any problems with pucks and brushes.
