shower. I got a fogless mirror for christmas, but it's more fuss than I anticipated. I've been fine without a mirror for 10 years. I'll be fine another 10.

I can't build a face lather for shite in the shower, just too much moisture everywhere.

The guest bathroom is currently my shaving den. When I get up in the morning I run in there and fill the sink with hot water and drop my brush in it, then go take my shower in the master bath. By the time I am done, the brush is softened and fully absorbed with water.

Sometimes I do a bowl lather, sometimes a face lather, depends on what brush and soap or cream I feel like using that day.

I looked at amazon and heres a great customer review:

Verified Purchase
Where has this been all my life? I now spend upwards of 67 minutes in the shower, staring at myself. It has made me late for work on numerous occasions. Ironically this mirror has actually been influential in making me shave less because now I am able to stare at my gorgeous beard in the comfort of my own naked time.

Pros:
- Nano-technology, fogless feature: I have no idea how this technology works, but they must hide the computer very well. Somehow it prevents it from fogging. It may even be enchanted.
- Easy installation: Tying my sneakers was more traumatizing than installing this mirror. This of course is no longer an issue since I now wear shoes with velcro fasteners.
- Mounts: Comes with a handy, secondary metal mount for my razor. I have not installed it quite yet, but I can think of at least 11 different things to hang in my shower, including my tooth brush, a golf pencil, nunchucks, or a handy straw.
- It hangs in such a way that when I walk into my bathroom, I can actually see it hanging in the shower. It's a very mystical experience... from 10 feet away, the image is somewhat distorted, but the closer I get the more detail it shows. I feel almost as if I am called in by the sirens of my own vanity to see my reflection slowly clear-up until I snap out of it, looking around to see myself standing in the shower, fully clothed. Sometimes I still have the car keys in my hand from walking in the door 2 hours prior.

Cons:
- The seller (Cassani) keeps emailing me tips, tricks, and FAQs with subjects like "IMPORTANT: How To Protect & Use Your Fogless Shower Mirror." Evidently mirrors that hang in showers are extremely complicated endeavors and have driven many men to insanity without proper guidance. I appreciate their frequent emails that remind me how to use this advanced technology.
- When I asked it, "Who is the fairest of them all?" it just kind of sits there.

I have a cheap fogless mirror that hangs on a hook.

In truth, it's not really fogless, but you take it off the hook and hold it under the water for about a second and hang it back up. No fog for at least a couple minutes, which is how long it takes me to shave.

I've shaved and brushed my teeth in the shower for 40 years. Same as above. I buy a mirror every few years and just run water over it before I shave. It's clear for a couple minutes.

Fogless mirror in the shower. I use this one, the best I've ever found. You simply fill it up with hot water each morning and it doesn't fog.


One thing I have found is that you can just buy a cheap "fogless" shower mirror and when it starts to fog up just spray some of this:



It works like a charm

If you rub shaving cream on it and rinse, it will remain "fogless" longer

Shower with mirror to shave head & face

However since I got introduced to this I haven't really used razor except to trim around goatee.

Does an amazing job & I have a tough fast growing beard.
