For the longest time I never used aftershave and just recently started using some, although not every time. Who else uses aftershave irregularly? How often do you use a specific aftershave?
Aftershave or no aftershave?

I always use some aftershave product but sometimes I will do a non-alcohol witch hazel + alcohol based AS and sometimes I will do a alcohol witch hazel, and sometimes an AS balm of some sort. It really depends on the day, what I want to smell and how good the shave was!
I always finish a shave with an aftershave splash. Sometimes I'll use it on a day when I didn't shave. I enjoy the feel and the scents.
I love splashes. Use one every time.
Aftershaves have become a regular part of my routine since I started wet-shaving. Never used them in my cartridge and goop days.
I always try to match the brand of aftershave to whatever soap or cream I use that day. That's not always possible, but I at least will try to match the country of origin.

+1 I had quit using AS, before I discovered B&B. Now I don't feel a shave is complete without after shave. Several hours after, if I am in the Shave Den, I will splash on a little as a pick me up.
I don't really chase BBS on a regular basis, but if I do I break out the witch hazel and Nivea ASB for my neck.
I always follow up my shave with an aftershave splash. Once in a while I'll use a little balm after the splash, particularly if my skin is a little dry, or I have a little irritation.
+1. I do this too
2-3 times per day. How else will I ever get through 25 bottles 
I have pretty sensitive skin, so I always use an ASB; typically Nivea sensitive skin.
I always use an aftershave after shaving. However, I never really used them until about a year ago. I think I am addicted to them now! 
My routine is odd but I find it works for me. I shave before I shower, enjoy the feel of a shave after a hot towel. After I shave I will spalsh my face with bay rum and let it dry for several minutes, usually the time I eat breakfast. Then I shower and wash my face. Finally, I finish with aftershave balm. Why bay rum after I shave and before I shower? I love the way my face feels after I apply it but my wife hates the smell. This keeps everyone happy.

Always, after every shave.
+2 Always look foreward to the aftershave splash. It's one of my favorite parts to my shaving routine.
Baxter sometimes. I've stopped using it for a week now.
I finish with aftershave every time, and depending on the ambient humidity, use a moisturizer
