Shaving is an experience and I would like it to be amazing. If these things are readily available (rinsing razor doesn't count for me), they should be more accessible. Or maybe I'm just ignorant in the ways of shaving. I’m glad people are thinking about these very important topics. Shaving is an experience and I would like it to be amazing.

It's very nice. P2 I put my razor back into the hot water to rinse it between every stroke. Personally I'd rather have the simplicity of that vs a razor that has batteries or somethingelse. P3 This exists too, some work better than others. If we're talking Electric shavers then P2 comes back into play and I think you'll find that the temp stays pretty consistent through your shave, at least that's what I'm told, personally I hate electric shavers. I've seen A LOT of work done on men's shaving here at Philips. They've really studied out the whole experience of it. I really love that you're reflecting on things and finding principles, it's great.

Why can't the shaving cream itself heat up? Think Icy Hot. Surely chemists can solve this minor problem. Andrew, ya there are some “add-on” solutions that solve this, but they are expensive.

It has been solved. Years ago when I got my hair cut at a real barber shop, they would include a shave (sideburns and back of neck) with the hair cut. Their shaving cream dispenser (which looked like it was from the fifties) produced a nice foam which was hot. If you get your hands on one of those, at least one of your 3 problems will be solved :) You’re in luck with Principle 1. It has been solved.
