If I complete a three pass shave, I really have no need to shave the next day. I'll wake up with the feeling of still having just shaved. By mid day I'll be able to feel some roughness. But it won't be until the next day that there is anything really visible. I don't go into the office very much and when I do, I usually have to unlock the door on my way in and lock it behind me as I leave. So basically I don't have a lot of company when I am there. I actually like shaving off a three or four day beard. I remember what a nightmare shaving a three or four day beard was with a disposable, all kinds of ripping and pulling. But its a pleasure with the SR.
