I generally shave in the shower.

All well and good when using a stick razor but...make sure you have absolutely solid footing. Had a severe back spasm once in the shower that left me and various fittings a mess. One of those white-out pain thingees.

There's a lot to be said for a brisk rub down with a thick towel before shaving. Kinda like having a towel over the shoulder to wipe the soap from the razor, but hey, that's part of my ritual. Go find your own and enjoy the quiet luxury.

“...but hey, that’s part of my ritual. Go find your own and enjoy the quiet luxury...”

And isn’t that what it’s about? I’m definitely not looking for convenience or speed.

It’s about the experience. Now, shaving is an experience...a “luxury”. Not a chore to get through.

And I copy that on “solid footing”.
