Forgive me if this has been brought up before, but I'm curious how long it takes everyone to shave?
For the longest time, I believe it took me about 15 or 20 minutes to do a three pass shave but I was really wasting time, lathering too long, building lather too long, extra rinsing between passes. It got to the point where I no longer wanted to shave before work and I was shaving in the evenings.
A few weeks ago I really focused on trying to speed things up because I wanted a nice clean shave every day before work. I started loading for less time, building lather on my face for less time, and just added speed to my strokes and lathering process. I can now do a three pass shave in 7 to 8 minutes which is great for me.
Now if I really want to relax, take my time, enjoy the scent and experience, I have Saturday, Sunday, and Monday (work from home that day) to do that. Tuesday through Friday however, I want to save as much time shaving as possible.
How long does it take everyone else to shave? How many passes do you execute in that period of time? Additionally, do any of you have any time saving techniques you stumbled upon to make your shave less time consuming?
