Have you thought how much money we spend each year on shaving blades alone? It can easily be hundreds of dollars. When trying to live on basically no income I was faced with a dilemma. Should I just stop shaving or extend the life of my shaving blades? I chose to go with the latter. Now how I was to do that was another question.
Eventually I found out that if I shaved in the shower, my blades lasted much much longer. They seemed to be in a decent shape even after a month or two. I was not only getting a better shave, it seemed much easier and my skin felt nicer afterwards. So, here is how I did it.
In a warm shower, instead of shaving cream, I used soap for shaving as well and I bought a small mirror from a dollar store to see what I was doing. That’s it!
Apparently shaving in the warm shower, right after your warm shower, or just splashing your face with warm water before, during and after the shave is really good for you.
The hot water actually relaxes your facial muscles by opening the pores of your skin and thus making your shave more effective.
I never researched shaving before and just learned this out of necessity. 
My blades were lasting longer, I was saving money, I was saving time, and it was better for my skin. So, why not!

I am from the Ukraine. All people in my country use this method, I mean first splashing your face with warm or close to hot water and only then shaving. Do you guys splash yourselves with cold water? I thought it was kind of world wide thing.
Wow, that’s something I did not know. Everyone? Very smart. I think it’s more of an individual thing here. Whenever we do, we tend to use warm or lukewarm water.
