    Every evening, that way there's (usually) no hurry.

    I try to every day, due to the coarseness of my beard. I miss days if I have a cut that needs to be left alone or if I just don't have the time- I normally take about 20 mins.

    I shave every morning. I take a shower, do 2 passes on my face (WTG, ATG) with a straight, and then shave my head with a DE. The whole morning routine takes just about 30 minutes for everything.

    I typically shave every other morning. The entire "triple S" process is typically about half an hour. The shave is typically a "once over". I qualify my statements with "typically" because of the inevitable variables.

    When I was working in an office, I would shave everyday. Usually I did a two pass shave. If in a hurry I can get away with one pass. Typically, the shave would take me about 20 minutes. Its worth it to me to get up a few minutes early. A good straight shave is a great way to set a pace and tone for the day.

    I like to shave daily but sometimes I skip a day either due to time constraints or because there is not enough stubble to warrant shaving. I shaved so close yesterday that today will be a day I skip. I almost always do a 2 pass shave. Once in a while I will do 3 passes but never 1 pass. On days that I work I shave in the morning on off days later at night. Whatever the time of day my shave is always at a relaxed and leisurely pace.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
