I usually do not.
Do you rinse your washing soap before applying your shaving soap?

No. I don't even wash my face before shaving. The shower takes care of that part.
I guess I would argue that if you washed your face in the shower your answer should be yes, because you would've rinsed before you got out of the shower.
This is what I do, too.
The same for me,I rinse the washins soap in my shower.
Yes, but mostly so I don't have my washing soap getting in my eyes while I'm lathering my shave soap.

Call me daft, but I don't think I understand the question; is this specifically for shower shavers?
I rinse. I'm not about to ruin a great lather from a $20 shave soap by mixing it with inferior lather from a $2 face soap. In addition I wash my whole face before I shave and don't want soap getting in my eyes.
I lather on top of MRGLO soap.
Since I use a facial scrub, the answer is "yes". If I were using a glycerin soap on my face, I might not.
At first I thought you were asking if we rinsed the soap itself (not from our faces). I'm thinking, "Of course I rinse off the bar of soap. I don't want short and curlys all over it,"

I do rinse as I then apply Proraso pre shave cream.
If I wash my face with soap before shaving I rinse it off. Most times, I don't wash my face until after shaving when i shower.

You can wash your face with face soap in the sink and either rinse it off before applying shave soap or leave it on. Simple concept, no?
I don't wash my face in the shower; I wash my face after I shave so my original answer of "no" is correct.
I don't use any soap before my shaving soap/cream. Just flush down my face with plenty of warm or even hot water.
Yes but the alternative isn't practical considering my routine and that I don't wash my face and shave in the same room. Plus it would be weird shaving with soap drying out on my forehead, nose and parts of my cheeks. I generally don't wash the parts of my face that I shave.

Do you do something to clean off oils to better hydrate and/or exfoliate your skin, or just shave?
I see the purpose of the first wash as a way to dissolve and remove oils, allowing the beard to soak up water. If you don't rinse, you haven't removed the oils!
Sometimes (rarely) I wash my face a second time, and might leave that soap on.

Call me daft too, as I didn't understand the question either
I shower then shave, so I wash my face in the shower and rinse it then.
This is what I though it was asking too.
Before using a bar of soap, I always ask myself...What is the last thing I washed with this bar yesterday?
