How long does it take you to shave?

[Roobaix]

About 10-20 minutes including prep and cleanup, usually more like 10-15 but sometimes I take longer.

I try to save some time by soaking my brush & soap in the sink while I'm in the shower.

Wow, 10 minutes! That's fast. You must really have your technique down pat.

Not really. I just don't grow hair on cerian parts of my face 7 on other parts it comes in so thin one pass is all that I need.

 

[Marcoparis]

It takes me an absurd amount of time, usually in the 35-45 minute range. Do I win anything?

Dave

You win exactly 35/45 minutes of pure pleasure!

 

[Grace]

Leg shaving is about 30 minutes.

5-10 minutes on a weekday, longer if I'm in the mood, but remember I've been at this for 40 years.

Me too - less than 10 minutes, start to finish, including 2 (sometimes 3) passes with my Cobra Classic. I also have about 500 months experience doing this !!

Shower, shave and grooming is just about 30 minutes total - which hasn't changed since I began DE shaving. I just spend less time in the shower and futzing around before/afterwards.

 

[Copierguy]

My average is 15 minutes.........it's usually this best 15 minutes of the day.

 

[Optometrist]

Generally around 20 mins from start to finish. I'm in no rush, I wish it took longer!

20-30 minutes when i take my time or 5-10 in a hurry

 

[cmannen]

I would say around 20 min excluding shower.

 

[flycbyrd]

It can take me 10 minutes if i am in a hurry to about 25 minutes. when i first started i was at it for 45-60 min... some times i take 30 just depends if im in a hurry. Its more enjoyable when its around 25 min.

 

[Slivovitz]

The one time I actually put a stopwatch on it, it was just under 13 minutes from getting out of the shower and picking up the razor to putting the last of my shave stuff away and leaving the bathroom.

From glances at the clock at other times, probably anywhere between 5 and 20 minutes, with 10-15 being typical.

 

[cernel_joson]

5-10 minutes. I don't get the complaint that it takes too long compared to carts. A good shave is infinitely more satisfying than one cycle of snooze.

 

[bjh618]

Dodgey shave at 4.30 am mon-fri = 10 mins

Weekend/days off = 15-20 or I rest my face

 

[Silky Glide]

A whipping up lather and a two pass shave with a bit of blade buffing and detail work + a shower and a once over with alum followed by a cold water rinse takes me about 25-30 minutes.

 

[Ski-Patroller]

From prep to cleanup, 10 to 20 minutes depending on how much of a hurry I'm in.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

The reason that I can shave in ten minutes or so is because I don't relather after the 1st pass. I lather, shave with the grain, shave ATG, & then feel my face & neck for any stragglers & I get those. I am really beginning to get the hang of it & the more I DE shave the better I get!!!

 

[rochoje]

I'm at about 20 minutes as well
