Thread: Dry Shaving

Ah, but the lathering is a significant part of the entire shaving experience which adds to the stropping, the shave itself and finally the aftershave and becomes greater than the sum of its parts. I wouldn't enjoy the experience nearly as much without it.

Well said!!!!!

Excellent! Thanks for all the ideas as to what's going on. I'm merely a humble chemist, so unless we're talking about shaving with harsh chemicals, I'm flying by the seat of my solvent soaked pants!

As do I.

I will also add nothing to the conversation by saying that dry-shaving makes my poor skin beg for mercy. I haven't tried out cold-water shaving yet, though my curiosity may get the better of me...
