I've tried several pre shave products and some home made stuff. I've used hot towels and sometimes spent a lot of time on pre shave action.
These days?
After my shower, I just rinse mt face again in hot /warm water and leave it wet. Then apply my lather.
Result?
Great shaves every time. I wouldn't discourage anyone from trying anything. But a fairly simple pre shave routine works just fine for me.

Like you, I've tried numerous pre-shave strategies, but find that all it does is add time... No perceivable benefits.
ReplyDeleteHot shower, warm water splash and lather away.
I don't like to discourage people from trying these things but for me too, they are a waste of time and money.
ReplyDeleteMy theory
ReplyDeletePreshaves work for guys like me, fellows with very coarse beards. Preshaves spell the difference between a close and comfortable shave and lesser shaving experience.
I think most guys who write they find preshaves unnecessary are right because they have relatively light beards and so don't need the extras a preshave offer.
I totally accept that. Common sense suggests that there is continuing demand for a reason. They just don't help me.
