Placing a hot towel on the face before shaving helps to soften the hairs for a smoother, more comfortable shave. For straight razor shavers, a towel on the shoulder makes it much easier to wipe off the blade between strokes.
These 100% cotton towels are soft to the touch and feature a waffle texture that makes them both super absorbent and quick drying. A little larger than a regular hand towel at 60 x 45cm, they're just the right size for use as a hot towel pre-shave or as a blade wiping towel for straight razor shavers.
To use before shaving, heat the towel with hot water and wring out the excess. Then, rest the towel on the face to soften the stubble before shaving.
