Only about 3x a week since I'm now retired. May start more often if this str8 routine works out well.

I shave 2 or 3 times per week. I'm a software engineer, so shaving is not an issue at work, but I'm finishing my degree at BYU, which means I have to be reasonably clean-shaven when I go to class.
I usually shave Tuesday evening, Thursday evening, and Saturday evening or some variation thereof. Church on Sundays is the only time I really worry about being totally clean-shaven, so Saturday night is the one that doesn't vary hardly ever.
I shave almost exclusively with straights, but if I'm in a hurry and really need to shave I'll go with the DE.
This summer will be the first time in 5 years I won't be working on campus or taking classes, so I might grow a beard just for the heck of it. We'll see how long I can last without a good straight shave though...
Usually every 2 days. Sometimes several days in a row, just to enjoy the process. When I used a DE, shaving every day was often necessary.
I cant help but constantly change my facial hair, and quite enjoy various full beards, so i don't shave that, but after a single day I have a noticeable stubble that would need to be shaved every day.
Now it's every other day. I've found that with the straight my two day growth looks like my one day growth did with the fusion. I actually think the Mach 3's shaved closer than the 5 bladers. The strange thing is that I could get a pretty close shave with the cartridges, smoother feeling right after the shave than my straight, but the straight shave seems to last longer. Once I get the hang of this and go for the 3 pass shave I may be able to go three days. I went ATG on my cheek yesterday and I can just now barely feel stubble. The rest of my face feels like it used to a couple of hours after using a fusion. That was about 16 hours ago. With the cartridges my whole face would feel like sandpaper by now.
I shave daily, except sunday, then I give my face a rest. Although with DE razor, but I'm planning to purchase a straight soon :)
I shave daily. I have a job where I'm expected to look decent.
If I have a meeting in the evening, I'll shave twice that day.
Four times a week - Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. This makes my wife much happier than the twice a week I shaved before switching to straights.
Daily, i wake up early for it. Its like crack now that iv started if i forget in the morning i am going insane at work waiting to get home and shave.
Daily though this is not religiously observed. Occasionally I miss a day at the weekend.
