consider the idea that "rituals of personal care" are effective at convincing yourself that you value yourself more. (rather than specific to shaving).

Try also:

  • Painting your nails
  • getting a fancy haircut
  • cooking or eating a fancy meal
  • going to a performance of some kind of culture
  • setting aside time for other rituals
