I guess the caffeine is good for the skin? Maybe we need to ask Wchnu if the instant packs of Cafe Bustelo would be even better? A shave with hot coffee water to lather. Interesting. Which soap???
I would assume, Williams quite naturally.

I voted for warm water. No rational reason why I use warm as opposed to cold. I just like warm better.

I never could grow accustomed to cold water shaving, even in the summer. Soaps and creams just seem to work best for me with hot water. My face also feels cleaner and more refreshed with hot water.

I've recently tried a few cold water shaves. Didn't notice any real benefit or drawback. I do prefer hot lather so unless it's really hot a humid out I think I will stick with the hot lather.

Cold water shaves are for commies!
Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.
