Up until now my shave routine is having one every third day. So a shave on Monday is a next shave on Thursday.

Today I broke with this routine and took a shave, the second day after the previous one. The interval gets smaller.

I know my razor was carefully stropped and sharp. The shave went ok, but............... I must admit I do have, very slightly, some razor burns.

Is this a normal reaction of the skin because there is a day less to recover from the previous one?

Or can you say, when shaving more often, the sharpness of a razor becomes even more important? Due to the fact that the edge has to get grip on shorter hairs?
