I'm with you Victor. I truly look forward to my morning ritual. It starts my day by putting me in a good mood. After that I make a good, big breakfast.

2-3 times per week.

Yep, my sentiments exactly. Every day unless I want to test a razor I have restored and then I may skip a day. My beard grows so fast that if I have a special occasion where I have to look cleaned up at night I'll shave twice that day. My people have those wooly northwestern European genes. My son can grow a beard in 2 weeks that looks like he hasn't shaved in a year. Of course he has that course carrot top viking red hair.

Thank you

Same here.....when I was a noob...every day,couldn’t get enough blade time...lol

Sunday with a straight before Monday work.
Mon. - Thurs DE. Some test passes with a straight if I'm working on an edge.
No Friday shaves unless I need to go to court.
No Saturday shaves ever.
On vacation I'll let it go till it bugs me. Then the straight comes out to plow through the growth.

2-3 times a week. Years ago I tried every day, but after 2 weeks it became another chore. Not good. Every other day was just about right, something to look forward to. I've slacked off a little lately.

I usually shave Mon, Wed, Sat, but been slacking off lately doing other hobbies at night and just shaving on Saturdays.

I must be a noob still after all these years.
That figures though. My wife and I have been married for 24 years and we're still on the honeymoon.

I shave every 72 hours or so. Gives time to let the whiskers grow out a little bit.

While I'm new to straight shaving, I seem to be getting a wonderful shave. Funny though, guys at work question this because I have a full beard. But cleaning up the cheeks and neck, along with having tattoos and thick arm/chest hair I have enough cultivating to do every to every other day.
