Thread: Shave frequency

Actually got a chance to have a leisurely shave today in the locker room at one of our distribution centers in Wisconsin. As I was going for the first stroke on my right cheek, I hear:

Whoa! Old school.

.....I like it.

(Another driver walking by)

Don't forget to wave as you pass by!

Every day, except occasionally I'll skip a Saturday.

I shave daily for work, but not on weekends, (our weekends being Friday and Saturday).

During Friday morning, I can tell the time, to within 30 minutes or so, by checking the stubble on my face.

Every day for about 40 years. Now it's every other day. Started well with a cutthroat during Covid 19 house arrest, degenerated to a beard, which will go when I start back at work. Or much sooner, if my wife has anything to do with it.

Every Day for me , a mixture of Straights and DE.

I shave everyday, 4 passes.

I don't get sore and my face and neck are smooth enough to make a babies bum jealous.

It takes me about 45 minutes to have a shave which is fine because I really love shaving, wish it would grow faster so I could do it twice a day.

I shave every day, I am pretty new to straight razors, but find my skin remains in good shape and comfortable. I could never go against the grain on my neck with a DE without getting bumps , with a straight it is no problem.

When I started shaving with a straight it was every day 3 passes. Like clockwork. Since then I’ve mellowed to a nice one pass shave with a well honed razor (doesn’t leave any whiskers) whenever I need/feel like it. I’ll go through phases of every day shaving some weeks and others it’s 2 weeks or 2 months. Really depends what kind of facial hair I what to sport. Can’t express the joy of shaving off a nice thick beard!

Every two to three days, or twice weekly
