To those using hair conditioner....

[giraffejumper]

Will it impede the shaving cream's lather to just lather over the hair conditioner and then shave?
Or do you think it will be better to rinse it off first?
I even used ONLY conditioner one day and recieved one of the best shaves I ever had. However, after a couple of days of it - my face started getting bad razor burn.
So I realized I still needed the cream. (good, because I like them)
I read where people have just put it right on top of the conditioner and everything was fine.
Just curious.
I will try it in the morning - but I don't want to be messing up the cream doing it's job.
thanks,

I use hair conditioner as a pre-shave treatment from time to time (usually if I miss a day or two and have a lot of hair to get rid of)... I've found it best to let the hair conditioner sit on my face for a minute or two (while I'm in the shower), but I always rinse it before I apply any lather... this is what works best for me, though YMMV.

I use conditioner almost every day as a beard softener. I wash my face and apply the conditioner. At the end of my shower I rinse off the conditioner and go straight to the sink for my shave.
