Thread: What time of day to shave?

It's mornings here Mon-Fri.
Sat-Sun, I shave on my own terms...that way I feel like I'm sticking it to 'The Man'
Funny thing is, Mon-Fri, I'm considered The Man. If they only knew!!

I like a night shave if a little stubble at 5:00pm the next day isn't on my mind.
I get up at 5:30am and usually enjoy a leisurely shower, shave, coffee and full breakfast when I don't have to git before 7:30am.
I just like a shave - doesn't seem to matter when.
Never liked or cared about shaving until I discovered straight razors were my schtick-la.
Eight months down the road speed and quality are pretty good so timing isn't too critical.
(Heljestrand MK30 x MWF and Pinaud aftershave today, 6:00am to 6:20am).
I sometimes wonder if an open comb DE would be much faster and as enjoyable.
Screw the DE.
I just popped for a 7/8 Kropp.

Always in the late afternoon/evening for me, preferably when the house is empty and free of distractions and annoyances. I don't like to have to rush like I would if I was shaving before work in the AM.

I usually shave in the evening, but my favourite is when me and my (long distance relationship) girlfriend go on 'Skype-dates'. She straightens her hair and I shave while we are both on Skype!

M-F, night shaver. Saturday and Sunday, morning shaver.

I shave whenever I get a break from all the hustle and bustle.I like to enjoy my shaves.Take my time.I work construction, no one cares about being unshaven.

I'm a cyclist and I've found that I have to be careful about shaving after a long ride. I take a hot shower before I shave and it's natural for me to want to do this after returning from pedaling. I've had times when after 40+ miles I shower and begin shaving only to find my hands a bit shaky from being a bit depleted, energy-wise and probably blood sugar-wise. I have to make sure I eat something before beginning this routine since straight shaving with a shaky hand is not a good thing.

yep that works for you

On weekdays, I shave between 4:30 and 5:00 AM.
On weekends, its whenever I drag my lazy a$$ out of bed.
