[Poll] You're running late so you.

[Badger Bill]

You don't have my option…

On the rare occasion that this happens, I force myself to return to canned goo (although a good quality one, if there is such a thing), but I still use a DE and do everything else about the shave the same.

Sounds like you and I are looking for the same option

+ another 1 on never running late. I always plan or enough time and give myself enough slack time to be punctual...

But that doesn't mean it doesn't ever happen, I am human after all. If I am behind my time, it's WTG only with a razor that is the most mild (that I have), a blue tip superspeed, and a SAS instead of DFS. Worse comes to worse, skip the shave.

 

[Jarick]

I'll just get to work five minutes late.

 

[Brian G r a f s t r o m]

Doesn't usually happen, since I shave in the afternoon or evening. If I'm planning to shave before going somewhere and don't think I have enough time, then I just skip the shave. I only shave two or three times a week, so a little more growth isn't going to kill me.

This.

I skip the shave if I can get away with it, but if not:

Use cream instead of soap and 1 pass instead of 2.

+1

 

[takeshi]

Normal. Even with carts I was using a brush and soap so there's no time savings with using a cart.

 

[MrLara]

+1 to this right here
Being late is something I never do. I am a huge believer in being punctual.

agree with this 100%.

If i'm somewhat limited on time, i do a one pass WTG. Depending on the stubble length, i sometimes just skip the shave.

I have a Panasonic electric razor ... sitting in its charging station for those 5 minutes "quickies" using Lectric Shave lotion.

I feel cheated though all day ... like taking a spot bath!

 

[BackslashCrevasse]

If I am running late, for example, unplanned quality time on the throne before my shower, then spending less time on lather helps. A few swirls on the soap, a few on my face, 1-pass against the grain, cold rinse, run for the train. Touching the alum for grippy fingers helps. Synthetic brush doesn't mind getting cleaned at night.

 

[Jkmar73]

Normal routine, just a WTG pass.

 

[wfinch]

I skip breakfast or save time someplace else. Still get my shave in

 

[garyg]

If pressed for time an injector gives a superior shave to a cart, as fast if not faster .. I'll also tend to using a quickly whipped cream rather than building lather from a hard soap. Before retirement i needed a minimum of DFS every working morning, and had enough time built into the routine for a good wetshave.

 

[AZBronco]

Not an option in the poll, but I will just do fewer passes and will be happy with a SAS for the day.

 

[chris.hale]

I can do a proper three-pass DE shave plus a WTG pass on my head in 10 minutes if I use a shave stick, if I can't spare 10 minutes I'll skip shaving.

 

[beowulf]

I'd rather be ½ hour early than 1 minute late, so I'll build in some buffer time for unexpected delays. But if something suddenly came up and I had to be out the door to go somewhere, I'd pass on the shave.

 

[user00]

If I'm pressed for time, I'll use a synthetic brush with a cream. I find it faster to build lather with a cream, and I don't take as much time rinsing and drying a synthetic as I do with other brushes. I'll also drop down from 3 passes to 2 passes.

 

[heybatter]

If I have to get a shave it quick I'll use a cart and canned goo.

No biggie.

 

[keithmax]

Regular routine but use a soft cream and skip a pass.
