Dr. Davidlind’s Martha Stewart Moment

Posted November 28th, 2007 by David and filed in Blogs or Posts

I have discovered one thing in the past few years that has made life much easier. And I would like to share it with you now in the hopes that it will make your life easier. Probably you are not going to hear about this anywhere else in blog land. It’s not going to be in any of the big time blogs or the little time blogs. Except for this little time blog. And here it is:

Guys. Learn to shave in the shower. You might want to use a mirror. But I have little faith in that method. Besides I am blind as a bat without eyeglasses and don’t plan to pop in contact lenses every time I take a shower. No, there is a better way.

Learn the Braille method of shaving. That’s right. Teach yourself the contours of your face so you don’t cut off your nose or one of your ears. Unless you plan to pursue painting as an avocation and want to become famous really quickly you do not want to cut off one of your ears. And there is a saying about cutting off your nose. Everybody will be remembering it when you come around the corner. So you don’t want to be doing that either.

Just use one hand to sort of scout out the territory and then bring in the blade. And here is some more good news. Your razor blades will last for a year if you shave in the shower. That’s right. One blade will last an entire year because shaving in the shower means a nearly effortless cutting action. This is the reality behind all those television ads where the guy is shaving with a smile on his face and a really close shave in seconds. Before running the tape they stick this guy in a steaming shower for ten minutes. And ladies you really do want your husbands to shave in the shower. Because he is going to have a really, really smooth face if he does. The other good reason to do this is because it is so very easy to rinse your face off if you are in the shower. Especially if you have a shower head like mine that will put a hole in the side of the shower if you leave it running for an hour. Don’t you hate leaning over the sink and splashing water on your face? It gets all over the place and leaves little orphaned whiskers all over the sink. Then you or somebody else has to clean it up.

If you shave in the shower you can just put your face under the shower head and forget about it. And then you are done! When you get out of the shower you are really clean. And really clean means your face is really clean too.

So to summarize let me just say that this is the most comfortable shave you will ever have and you don’t even have to buy shave cream if you don’t want to. A little soap will do the job.

Just add up the savings! No shave cream and one razor blade per year. Did I just save you some money? I hope so. And I don’t think Darren Rowse ever helped you in this area did he? We are the little blog that could around here. And we keep on chugging.

    Good. I’m sure he will be glad you did if he tries it and gets the hang of it. Measuring the length of sideburns is the most difficult part. And as long as your ears are in the same place on both sides it’s not a big problem.
