Sidney is correct except for the mirror bit. I shave in the shower but without a mirror and then finish off the locks in front of the mirror-it is really straightforward. I always finish off my shower with a quick 10 second burst of ice cold water to waken me up as well as closing my pores which is partly why I have such good skin I suppose.

Hey - thatâs my line.

I too am a recent convert to shaving in the shower.
It all began one day late last Summer, I went to shave at the bathroom sink, as usual. While filling the sink with water with from the hot tap, I noticed something significant - the water coming from the hot tap was cold. I checked the hot press to make sure the immersion was turned on. I discovered that it was turned on, but the copper cylinder was freezing coldâŚMy immersion no longer worked, I almost immediately concluded. Being already under pressure time-wise I briefly flirted with the idea of boiling the kettle to provide me with the hot water required, but just as I prepared to make the sprint downstairs, I recalled an acquaintance once telling me of his shaving in the shower exploits, and the merits of same. I must admit, I had been sceptical of this as the preferred method of shaving, but I decided that now was the time to give it a try.
I proceeded to take my shower in the normal fashion, washing hair and body thoroughly. By now I was quite excited by the prospect of my first shave under shower. I had brought with me a small mirror from the bedroom that sat perfectly on top of the shower unit. I then proceeded to lather my face with shaving foam, using shaving brush of course. Soon I had my Mach 3 in hand, ready to lance the healthy growth of stubble that had shot up overnight. From the very first stroke, I knew that my shaving method had changed forever. I felt quite liberated as my razor glided over my face, like a skier over the snowy peaks and troughs of an alpine mountain range. My skin felt unbelievably smooth, like the bosoms of a particularly large breasted lady. There were one or two minor drawbacks at the start, but it has been a learning process, and by now, I have perfected my method to include all of the tips that Sid has mentioned above. As a shaver, I have never felt happier or more satisfied with my shave.

For all you shower shavers, some soapy water on the mirror will prevent it fogging up.

That machine is meant to be more effective for Hayfever and the likes, it meant to be excellent.
When I was in Oz the sinuses dried up and gave no issues at all.
