Thread: How often do you shave?

Every day for me. I enjoy it too much to miss a day.

I really want to shave everyday, but I've come to realize that with both DE's and straights that it's not as fun for me if I don't leave my beard to grow for at least 2 days. First, I'm more likely to get irritation if I don't (not always, but usually). Second, it's just more fun to have a greyish face from all the hair (3-4 days of growth) and to then shave off all the hair and have a clean face. It's a nice experience

I tend to shave every second day, with an extra day on the weekend; that means I'll shave Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday nights, most weeks. I have to shave at night, as I don't have enough time in the morning. It generally works out well, as I get a bit sensitive, even if I'm shaving every two days consistently. I assume that will go away as my technique improves.

I shave every 36 hours - if I shave on Monday morning then I shave again on Tuesday night and so on. It's the perfect balance for me - if I shave more often I get irritation and if I wait longer then I get irritated.

When I first started, I alternated the straight with a DE and I usually skipped the weekends completely. But now I shave every day, even on weekends and I try to use a straight as much as possible. I only use the DE on days when I'm in a rush, usually coz I overslept..!

I shave everyday. Almost always at night. Being blonde, that's all I need to look decent the following workday.

The first month it was to much for my skin. It got irritated and felt sore.
But now, I feel dirty if I don't shave every day.
Or perhaps it's just that I really enjoy it so damn much

I wonder if I shaved every day if my face would be a little less sore. When I get a really good shave there is often very little stubble the next day. It's the second day if feels very prickly and tender to shave. Well I guess I will just have to see how it works out with the straight.

Hi,

Three (3) pass shave every day; if I miss my daily shave I start pining

Have fun !

Best regards

I shave every day, and would shave twice a day if I could - I love the challange!

I alternate between a DE and my str8. But the funny thing is, it takes me almost as long to DE shave as str8 shave, I just need less faculties about me when I do it - much safer, not much faster

It takes me forever to shave with the DE. At least a good 15-20 minutes.
