As a long-time bald guy, shaving my head in the shower has always been my preferred routine. The steam helps me achieve a smooth, close shave, leaving my scalp shiny and free from mess. However, shaving without a mirror in the shower has its challenges. After I finish, I often find myself cleaning up missed spots at the sink, where I have to first wipe off the fogged-up mirror before I can do anything. That’s where the Oxo StrongHold Suction Fogless Shower Mirror comes in — a product I didn’t realize I needed until I tried it.
The Test
When I had the opportunity to test out the Oxo StrongHold, which has become a popular choice for many, I jumped at the chance. Having been a veteran of shower shaving, I immediately saw the potential benefits of a fogless mirror, and I was excited to elevate my shaving game.
Why It’s a Winner
The Oxo fogless mirror solves a problem I never fully appreciated until now. It’s incredibly easy to use, with a straightforward setup process — once you get past a couple of initial hiccups.
The mirror attaches to your shower wall via a suction cup. To set it up, you simply pull a lever to secure the suction cup against the wall and then lower the lever to lock it in place. That’s the theory, but during my first attempt, I struggled to get the mirror to stay put. It popped off after just a few seconds, much to my frustration. Thankfully, it didn’t crack, and I learned that the suction cup needs to be pressed harder against the wall for a secure hold. The mirror also needs to be placed on a clean, dry surface, and Oxo advises against putting it over grout lines, which can interfere with suction.
Once I fixed the mirror securely to the wall, the setup was simple: I filled the mirror’s water reservoir with hot water and slid it onto the wire loop. Although I wasn’t thrilled about having to do this before every shower, the hot water is essential for keeping the mirror fog-free, and it worked like a charm.
What I Love About It
After a few showers, I was finally able to see myself clearly in the 9-inch-tall mirror. No more blind shaving — I could now effortlessly watch as my remaining hair vanished with each swipe of the razor. The mirror’s convenient holster, which fits most razors, ensured my razor was always within arm’s reach.
I also found it incredibly helpful for washing my face in the shower. Being able to check that I had thoroughly rinsed away all my face wash was a nice bonus. The best part is that now I can complete 100% of my shaving routine in the shower. There’s no more stubble accumulating around the sink, which is a win in terms of both cleanliness and time-saving.
Conclusion
Now that the Oxo StrongHold Suction Fogless Mirror is securely fastened in my shower, I can’t imagine ever going without it. Shaving my head in the shower is quicker and easier than ever before, and as someone who’s often running late, that alone makes the mirror worth the affordable $23 price tag. This simple yet effective gadget has significantly improved my daily routine, and I’m convinced I’ll never want to take it down.
