    As long as possible to be honest

    Anything from about 15 minutes to a full 45 mins of pampering myself, depending on my mood and available time.

    Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years....

    From the moment I lather my face to cold water rinse, three passes, I guess it is about 20-25 minutes. With a straight razor, of course.

    The joys of being retired. There is absolutely no hurry. Shave time is my time. Just the shaving part, around 25-30 minutes. Have to have a sip of coffee now and then and adjust the volume on the stereo.

    I'm only about 5 straight shaves in. First full shave took about an hour and a half. This morning's shave only took an hour

    It takes me about 30 minutes, it would probably be a bit quicker if I didn't have to keep getting the alum out! I don't know if being a carpenter helps, as regards to holding a blade, angles, WTG, XTG and ATG...it all applies to wood!

    With the straight razor about 45 mins from first stroke to rinse but I'm still a newb. If I cheat and use the Mach 3 for the difficult spots only about 20 mins.

    Rarely more than six minutes. My record is a minute and 56 seconds.
