enlighten me about this conditioner while shaving you speak of?
I finally made the switch from just using electric shaver to a REAL mans shaving regimen.
I've found wetting the face before lathering up makes for smoother shaving
 
my face is not too bad to shave with the straight razors... the neck is a bitch though...

on shaving days, my neck hates me, I hate my neck, my wife hates my neck... and it gets paid forward from there
 
I haven't shaved since Wednesday 6 am. So it's been 108 hrs since I last shaved. My beard is 4 inches long already.

another 9.68 days and your beard hair will be longer than your flacid penis
 
I just shave. I splash some water on my face, smear on some generic shave cream and scrape off my face with a 3-bladed shaver. I would guess it takes 2 minutes.

No conditioner or additional creams.

No special strategic use of jeans or other pants.
 
Post-shower, we apply Aveeno shaving cream. Post-application, we apply deodorant and cologne (while the shaving cream soaks briefly) and then we shave using some kind of Gillette razor that costs a ridiculous amount.

Follow it up with a Nivea post shave cream or whatever it is.
 
I went and shaved immediately following my previous post. I timed myself with a digital clock. It showed 7:31 when I began and 7:34 when I finished.

It was a digital clock with no seconds. Therefore the shave took between 2 minutes and 1 second, and 3 min. 59 seconds.

My apologies..... I wasn't clear in my post.....

I don't apply the cologne to my face.

How do you get the razors for free?!?!?!
 
I just use a sharpened 12 inch hunting knife with some ivory soap to shave. Use rose water for after shave.

not really sure but assuming I signed up for some kind of coupon deal somewhere. Same with tobacco products but the indian stores dont accept coupons for cigs. got a free hamburger speaker on the way from skoal. cant wait to see what kind of POS it is:megaman:

I'll make note next time 1 comes and pass on the info. Usually its a pack w/ the razor, some gel, and something like a $5 off coupon

Not even sure if this is a joke or what....

You massage the conditioner in for a solid 30 seconds then massage then gel in for like i dunno 15-20 seconds

don't over do it with the gel since you don't want too much goook on the face as you use the blade

Post shower is key. During shower with fog-free mirror is even better.

I wait until dressed to apply cologne.
