What's your shaving ritual / equipment?

I shave in the shower. I typically apply conditioner to my facial hair and let it sit in to soften.

I've been using shaving cream from the Pacific Shaving Company (got a gift set for Christmas that I have really enjoyed) with a Mach 3.

After the shave, I dry off and follow up with a daily moisturizer from Pacific Shaving Company. It's a nice scent that doesn't leave you overly oily. So far, it has worked great in these winter months.

Whatever shaving cream is in my bathroom at some knockoff Gillette Fusion.

I use the old Gilette Sensor Excel razors. I don't need 16 blades or vibrating handles or flex balls.

I've been blessed with the ability to shave any method I have available. I can dry shave, electric shaver, razor, hair clippers...none of those irritate my skin.

Trim the beard with clippers and I usually just use a throw away and can of barbasol at the skin. Fill sink with hot water and wet the blade after each area.

Maybe my family was implying something with the shaving set.

I ask this question because, as my handle suggests, I typically have had a well kept, groomed beard for the past 15 years or so. It's been awhile guys.

You lucky bastard. All of those irritate my skin. Solution = I don't shave. Beard trimmer regularly.

I did a thread on this last year over on the SECr's O-T forum ... well, it was more about factors.

I tried Harry's, Favre's and Dollar Shave Club.

Dollar Shave won as the longest lasting, easiest to clean, best value for the dollar.

Some claim it is better to buy razors through Amazon, same razors, etc., and they may well be but for a few cents more I really like the convenience and reliability of Dollar Shave Club. I like their handle, I like their blades. I've got an old copper wirey thick tough beard and Dollar Shave Club checks all the boxes.

DSC razors, barbasol cream. Shave my head every morning in the shower. Shave my face in shower as well with just hot water. Shave my arse before I shave both of them.

I tried safety razors and was not a fan at all.

I only shave my neck since I have a beard. Got some good beard balm though. Leaves it nice and smooth.

-I use a Gillette fatboy safety razor with whatever blade is in there (right now I believe it's a Gillette 7 o'clock).
-I use an Omega badger brush with a rotating shaving soap (right now it's a Christmas Eve soap from Stirling)
-After shaving, I apply an alum block after the shave.
-Then, follow up with Bay Rum aftershave.
