do you listen to music while shaving?

[YetiDave]

Every time! I've always got something playing on my iPhone when I'm showering/shaving. Lately it's been Entrails, Skinless, Anaal Nathrakh, Soilwork.. Nothing particular for shaving though

 

[JRL]

I'm with the guys who want audio feedback from the razor. To quote from the Ballad of John Henry, "listen to the cold steel sing."

And yes, I'm a cold water shaver.

 

[The Polock]

I always seem to put on Mumford & sons for the shower and shave. Mellow and folky. Motorhead??? I don't think my poor face could handle any hard rock while shaving. I would probably start having flashbacks from the mach 3 days LOL

 

[Harry Snider]

Motoheads are for wooziesssssss - I listen to Pantera & SlipKnot while I shave.......yeahhhhhhhh

This makes me laugh,I tried the ol music thing and being that I like music on the more aggressive side the two DID NOT mix!
Inflames,Meshuggah even METALLICA!!!! take too much away from shaving for me!!!

 

[kdizz]

sometimes i like some tunes, but i'd rather enjoy a nice glass of whisky at night during a shave.

 

[Kerrplunk]

Most of the time I do listen to music. Once in awhile I like the sounds of shaving.

 

[StubbleTrouble]

I listen to the sweet sound of whisker removal

 

[sharpen]

I usually listen to some Progressive or Deep House. Quite relaxing and allows me to focus. Sometimes,silence is nice also!

 

[August West]

Om.

 

[evnpar]

Shaving is my quiet time, an almost meditative or zen-like experience, a calming, relaxing way to start my day before the crap of everyday life has to enter my thoughts.

 

[Deacon]

Classical music only. Love Mozart, Strauss, Wagner, etc. Love all the classical music!

 

[markg]

No. Need to hear the sound of the blade.

 

[Dave Colangelo]

Always, I try to match the music to the decade of the razor I'm using at the time.

I get that some folks like to listen to music or talk radio during their shave.

Personally I really enjoy the "song" of the blade, the splish of water in the basin and the music of the brush stroking lather.

calming.

I like dead silence while shaving so I can hear the razor cutting through the hair. Especially on the last pass so I know if I'm getting close enough aka no longer cutting hair.

 

[Okla1911]

News radio. But if I'm struggling with a new blade I'll turn it off & tune in the blades song.

 

[HerrWalters]

Depends on the mood. Either talk radio, classical, metal, blues and the occasional fart.

 

[biglebovski]

No,only cutting whiskers

I'm a music teacher and professional musician, but I hate "aural molasses." When I play music my intent is to listen to the music.

When shaving I don't want all the emotions music can inspire. I don't want any emotion - I want to be one with the blade. I want to be calm. I want to be quiet.
