Thread: Poll: How often do you shave ?

I shave daily, I need to, but I enjoy it. The whole experience. As Jimmy said, I'm usually testing a recently honed razor.
I may have 10 out or so on my counter in rotation. I also look forward to the Soap/Cream of the day. One day might be Mama Bear's, or maybe Castle Forbes. Yesterday, I used an old favorite, Vintage blades brand, triple milled soap. It's great stuff, under rated IMO. Give it a try. It also has a wonderful aroma. Very light. Shaving is my time. Nothing else matters.
Recently, I cut my thumb, deep, I posted about it. Even though blood was spewing all over the sink, I patched up the thumb and finished the shave. A shave is a terrible thing to waste.....Rich

I'll go through phases. Sometimes i'll shave every day, then i'll feel lazy & it'll be every other, or a three day break, then back to every day. I'm a carpenter, so shaving for work's not an issue. It's all about me! (& my wife, of course!)

Every day exclusively with a straight razor except Saturdays. I usually go unshaven on Saturdays.

Every other for me

5 times a week for the days i work

Every day. Skipping a day would not be good for my
appearance -- 2 days without shaving is probably
`stubble chic', but 1 day is just homeless.

I'm lucky to now be at a time in my life that I can shave every other day but I used to shave daily.

In my younger days I actually experimented with a twice a day routine to cut down the amount of time it took for the morning ritual. I did a WTG pass at night and an ATG pass in the morning. It sounded good in theory but I wouldn't recommend trying that unless you have a very sharp blade and flawless technique.

couple times a week. i'm an engineer so no one expects me to look presentable at work (mostly i wear overalls and a tshirt, most of the engineers only shave once a week)

i like to shave, but i've found that every other day really works best for me, gives my skin a chance to recover.

I've got that shirt and tie thing going at the office, except on Fridays which is casual. being a redhead one day skipped doesn't show. I shave mon-thur., with the straight with very few exceptions (if I oversleep and am really pushed for time I'll dig out a disposable, but since I've gotten fast with the straight very seldom does it happen). I usually shave one day on the weekend, depends on where I'm going and how I feel.

For now every other day. Come next Deer season (September or so) I'll be getting ready for hunting so I'll start to grow my beard. I will be doing touch ups and shave my neck area & upper lip (don't care for lip hair any more).
