F...Shaving

I've always shaved after showering too.

Is splashing some water on your face after a shave really that much of a hassle?

Dickin around, plain and simple.

@mredskins, I might try and start shaving in the shower, but the few times ive done it i just didnt like it; i need a mirror and im not trying to leave a razor or shaving cream or anything else in the shower.

Like mooby the thought of shaving post shower never even entered my mind until i noticed that most people seem to do it that way. When i started shaving it just felt more logical to shave pre-shower although i have a pretty light beard so maybe i dont need to loosen my whiskers up as much as others. Also i dont like foggy mirrors or taking the chance of breaking out in a slight sweat in a steamy bathroom after a shower, particularly during the summer.

I hear ya, that's why I shave at night. I roll outta bed in the morning and have just enough time for a shower, grab a cup of coffee, and I'm out the door.

I always shave after the shower. A warm shower softens your wiskers and opens up your pores. Always a much smoother shave that way. My beard grows in full and fast, so I need to pull out all the stops to prevent razor burn/bumps. One thing I do is after I shave, I rinse my face with the coldest water I can get from the tap. Pulls the pores closed faster so you have less chance of irritation.
