Just discovered a much easier way to grind my coffee in the morning and felt dumb because it was so obvious, figure there’s some good stories out there about this type of thing out there

Shaving in the shower
Brushing teeth in the shower too.
You can cook in the shower too!
It is difficult to shave a face without a mirror, but I know many women do this, as legs don’t require a mirror.
I have a metal disk from a hard drive that I keep on a suction cup in my shower to use as a mirror. Works wonderfully.
just wanted to add that shaving in the shower at the end or doing it in the bath right after is great as the steam and such really gets your skin in the right condition to shave. I even do it without shaving cream or soap in the shower because you can just keep your skin real wet.
Well, I can see that in a bath, but I can’t fit in the bathtub. Not due to girth, but height. Loved baths as a kid. Just not an option now.
yeah i don’t know why I said bath there. I think I meant shower or bath or right after either and my brain got all running over itself when expressing it. The important part is all the steam and water just get the skin really ready. really the shower is the best because you can constantly rewet.
All good, I just figured your bathtubs were larger.
Hell, my kitchen sink could double as a urinal, if I were so gross.
I am considered tall. This isn’t a blessing. I would love to be about 5’10".
I do have a mirror in the shower for that purpose. Whenever I use conditioner in my hair I rub some on my face as well and that works great to shave with
Agreed! When I condition my hair, I also condition my face. And I also have beard conditioner.
I figure a mirror in the shower would fog like crazy. I leave my bathroom door open when I am showering and expect to shave so the mirrors don’t fog up.
a bit of conditioner spread on the mirror should prevent condensation
It’s kinda not really that hard. You can just feel where you still need to shave. I guess I’m biased, though, because I’m a redhead, so unless I’ve let it go a REALLY long time, my hairs are basically invisible anyway. (It doesn’t help that my eyes are terrible.) Even with a mirror, I need to feel to tell if they’re actually short enough. So the steam on my skin makes a bigger difference for my shave than having a mirror.
Oh man, my hair is a deep brown, almost black. It is so obvious if I miss a spot. And it is thick, like cutting a forest down.
I need a mirror and still have to do rub tests. Goddamn trees on my face.
I even went into a laser hair removal place and asked for a quote, and the lady was stunned. She didn’t know how to say it. Yeah, I can’t get away with not shaving and growing a beard sucks.
So I use beard conditioner and hair conditioner to soften it, then use shaving cream and grind on it until I can no longer hear the abrasions of the hair cutting down in my cranium.
And finally, I am ready for the meeting with the client. So I envy you.
Hell, man, I have to shave four hours ahead of time, because my skin is red from the operation. And I have an expensive razor set.
You are lucky.
Oof. Yeah, that sucks. If it’s any consolation, I can’t grow a decent looking beard to save my life. The front of my chin basically grows nothing, but my neck grows in thick, bushy curls. I look like a caricature of a basement-dweller. So I also need to stay fairly clean-shaven. But yeah, I guess that’s easier for me than I realized.
