Did guys use to use pre-shave stuff, post-shave items, etc. back in the old days? Or did the just lather up and get it done? What do you all think?
When do you consider the “old days”? The 70’s, 50’s, 20’s, 1800’s?Did guys use to use pre-shave stuff, post-shave items, etc. back in the old days? Or did the just lather up and get it done? What do you all think?
It is what I do also! I enjoy shaving but I am not starting a pre shave the night before. Wash my face, soak my brush, face is wet, apply lather, shave..my father did it that way, and he always looked good after a shave. No hurry...Both my father (DE shaver) and grandfather (SR shaver) washed their face thoroughly with soap and water before applying lather. That is all.
It worked well enough for them so that is all I do.
ALWAYS blame a woman.I learned to shave in the 1970s, from my father, who probably started shaving in the 40s. Get out of the shower, leave your face wet, lather up, shave, cold rinse, dry, aftershave. Done.
I only started including moisturiser, as a substitute for aftershave (alcohol-based), in the late 1990's. I can't remember what clued me up, but I was dating a girl who worked at a fancy cosmetics shop, so I'll blame her!
But ONLY if they can't hear you!
Spoiler: she'll still hear you.ALWAYS blame a woman.
