It looks so good!! It's funny because our moms criticized our hair...only to find out it only looked bad because they didn't know how to take care of it (and didn't teach us how to care for it)!
As far as advice, to reduce frizz you could try:
Get a fogless shaving mirror. There are two types I'd recommend:
The advantage of the former design is it lasts for longer. You can just fill the compartment and get your entire shave done. The disadvantage is it is heavier so if you lack a shelf in your shower at head height, you'll have to use those idiotic suction cups which never stay stuck.
The advantage of the latter design is that it is lighter, thus a suction cup can hold it, and it won't damage your feet if it falls. The disadvantage is that you might need to re-heat it twice or more times for a shave.
PS - And the people saying "use nothing" I have no idea how they do the spot where their hairline meets their beard on their sideburns.
Here I'll save you some research time. I've been through many "fogless" shower mirrors and this one is by far the best. Suction cup holds strong with a piece of packing tape underneath and the mirror hangs on the suction cup. Put the mirror under the water for a few seconds and it stays fog-free for 5-10 minutes, plenty of time to lather/shave. Small enough to put in my travel bag (I kept the original packaging) and truly "unbreakable" - I've dropped it many many times.

I'm not sure why I had that in my history..
Thank you all so much for the well wishes and happy birthdays. I really appreciate it. I was in the hospital because of complications from my chronic illness, but I’m already almost back to my base line.
I’m incredibly to have my husband and daughter. I was so surprised by this that I cried.
For everyone that’s wondering -
This is the vanity and stool. I really like them both. The vanity is a nice size and it has two drawers with removable dividers and the middle part comes up and has a mirror and more removable dividers. My only complaint is that the draws come out too easily. There’s nothing to catch them. It’s a perfect set for the price. It comes in black, too.
This the mirror. I’ve had a few light up mirrors, and this one is by far my favorite. You can change the intensity of the lights. The mirror shows every little skin imperfection, which is both wonderful and the stuff of nightmares. I think it comes in black and white also, but the other colors are under separate listings.

Tri-fold LED mirror, takes either batteries or USB
After reading a bunch of reviews and comparing mirrors, I ended up purchasing a mirror for $23.79 off Amazon. It's got LED lights, has a touch screen button on the front, auto shut off, adjustable lighting, button in the back for turning it off for travel or other reasons, comes with a microfiber cloth to clean finger prints and travel pouch, it's a 180 degree picture frame style which is nice for travel, runs off both USB and batteries, and has a detachable 10x mirror. I like it for many reasons, but it doesn't feel like I'm breaking the bank now or if something should happen to it in the future. Worth looking at for a temporary or permanent staple to your makeup area.
LED Vanity Mirror
Here you go
I used to shower shave regularly, and only stopped because my new house doesn't quite have the dimensions for it.
I would take a rubber mug and fill it with warm water. Put my razor in there to heat it up, and if I was using a boar brush my brush as well to soak. This mug has been with me from the start of my shaving career and it's a brute - unbreakable, decent grip on it, insulates pretty well. If you want to go cheap, a collapsible silicone mug from Walmart can be had for like $1 and works decently well.
You probably shave by feel with the cartridge. I used something like this for a mirror. It works well enough - it will fog periodically, you just hold it under the hot shower stream to clear it and reheat the surface and you've got another 5 min before it fogs again. Plenty of time to knock out a shave. There are other designs which have a reservoir behind the mirror surface; hot water goes in the reservoir, keeping it heated for the duration of the shower. I haven't used these because it's not a big deal to clear the mirror once during a shave.
My technique was basically to keep my soap and brush in a back corner of the shower, in one of the "shadows" of the shower stream so the lather wouldn't get washed out. I face lather so I just faced away from the shower stream, or angled the showerhead so that I could stand without water getting on my face lather. From there, everything else is the same except simpler cleanup. (The mug helps to rinse the brush really well, as well.)
Because my beard had less time to hydrate (compared to shaving after the shower), I kept some glycerin soap in the shower and used that to soften up and hydrate my beard. My order of operations was to wash and rinse my scalp hair, then glycerin soap my beard and leave it on my beard while I washed the rest of my body. Then load my brush, rinse my beard, and begin building lather on my face.
The one thing you'll lose from shower shaving is the sound. When you get the right angle with the DE you can hear the cutting action...it's one of the more soothing elements, and can help guide your technique when you're newer. But it's not a critical element, and shouldn't be a determining factor in whether or not you shower-shave. Everyone has their ritual, and that was mine.
Enjoy!
Replying to my own comment with some purchasing recommendations:
2. Next level folding chair. The locking feature is sick, most comfortable camp chair I've owned.
My goto folding table. I've got a bigger 8 foot one if I'm camping with a big group but this small one is perfect for 1-4 people.
3. Highly recommend this charger. Will charge a typical iPhone like 5 times and has QC 3.0 built in (quick charge, which is a nice feature at a festival). Currently on sale for $40 if you clip the coupon, I've seen it as low as $30, they'll probably go on sale for black Friday and Christmas too.
5. Bring a box of these babies and if it gets cold, you've suddenly made like 40 friends.
6. Something like this is a good choice for makeup. In case you have to go back to camp and freshen up, the light is a nice touch.
Both models can be pre-ordered from Amazon.de

The new switch version on Amazon Germany
My friend has and loves their Conair one. They're under $40 and easy to find on Amazon and the like. I believe this is her exact model? The only downside is that it's a tiny bit small for doing makeup/hair/everything, but if you're in an apartment, small is usually better. There's also a battery-powered model as well, and they both seem to have pretty great reviews.
EDIT: This one is gorgeous, but definitely on the pricier side, though still under $100.
Kinda looks like this one, minus the outer frame:

And just whenever you wanna feel fresh.
I got this one. It ended up being more expensive than what I had originally set my budget at but after browsing and comparison shopping for like an hour I was mad and just wanted this one so I bought it. No regrets!
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01EL2KIA4/ref=twister_B01K9NYKPI?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 It's not a palette, but this might do the trick!
Mirror this mirror from amazon i just got on monday. Its great. The lightening is really nice. My room is kinda dark so it really helps out. Its a nice size. Not to expensive either
This one from Amazon is pretty similar- not sure about the tray at the bottom! This one is on my wish list :)
Lol that is exactly me. Already got travel bag, tempered glass and extra charger with also Zelda.
On amazon.it they let us pre-order the new Switch for the 9th of September, hope it will come before though!

How about something like this? Since it's foldable it's a little less obvious that you have a random mirror at your work desk, if that's something people might judge about.
Here's the cheapo, manual version you can get on Amazon. Just hold it to the water to heat up, works alright!

I recently purchased this for my vanity. I have limited counter space, and this works perfectly. The light looks natural, not yellow or blue tinted. I still have my yellowish main light to the room on when I use this, and it works together well. It's a great complement to when I don't have natural light to work with. It runs on battery and is cordless. There is a touch on/off on the front for convenience.
Hansong Hollywood makeup mirror from amazon
It seems good so far, I just got it.
I really like this one for 25$, I use it daily + have given it as gifts before. But other people on here might have even better suggestions haha.
Copied from reply above :
Hey, I got this from amazon bunny mirror
Looks like the seller I got it from is not selling it anymore. It worked fine for a bit but my room is too dark so the light wasn’t bright enough. It’ll work well in a bright room, where the LEDs don’t have to work as hard. I primarily use it as a night light since it has that feature. I got it cause it’s super cute and works amazing as a mirror ,but the LEDs are meh. It was around ~$10USD so I should’ve known better,haha.
What I would recommend are the bulbs . They’re super bright, they have three brightness settings and three modes: LED,daylight and what looks like a low light/night time mode. They’re pretty good for ~$20USD.
Edit: I did find another seller selling it for $20USD if you really like it.
Edit: u/bananabread8 shared the same listing below
There are relatively cheap shower mirrors that won't get foggy
I'd love to try it. I do, however, enjoy shaving after the shower.
Nature has always had a way of making me really happy. I just finished an internship in Cape Town, South Africa. It was a really difficult time, and I had a lot of conflicting feelings while I was there. But people consistently said to me that Cape Town was the most beautiful city in the world, and I believe it. There was just something amazing about waking up to the view of a gorgeous mountain, then driving to my internship site along to coast. Even when I was having the most terrible day, that view really helped to put things into perspective. It was just beyond words!
Sooo, since it was beyond words, I'll show some pictures instead! Here is an astounding view from an area known as Hout Bay. And here is another from that same place! This was a view from Table Mountain. And penguins! Who ISN'T happy when penguins around? This penguin right here was my buddy. He even tried to eat my hair! And here is a gorgeous flower from Kirstenbosch Gardens.
If I am chosen, I would love this item. Thank you so much for hosting!
Can you feel the love
girrrl (and sibling with the sprouting face plumage) this is totally worth the $10 [unbreakable shower mirror] (https://amazon.com/dp/B0083VCV1O).
changed my life
^(since I spend about 2/3 of it shaving... ugh)
For years, I applied my makeup at my desk or at a table with something simlar to one of these: http://www.amazon.com/Conair-Double-Sided-Battery-Operated-Lighted-Polished/dp/B00005A443/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1453418224&sr=8-5&keywords=makeup+mirror
Usually they have a regular side, a magnified side, and a light.
Now that I have a vanity, I STILL use that lighted mirror for detail work.
ci sono tappetini che sono mooolto piu grandi di quello. Lo puoi mettere che va sotto la tastiera sotto il monitor, tipo https://www.amazon.it/AUKEY-900x400x4mm-Impermeabile-Antiscivolo-Strutturato/dp/B00QQ4EZNM/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=tappetino+mouse&link_code=qs&qid=1556022087&s=gateway&sourceid=Mozilla-search&sr=8-6
