Shaving every day?

Never skipped a day since I started using a DE in May 2008. Well, perhaps one day when I was down with the flu.

I switched from Mach III to DE with the specific goal to be able to shave daily and I succeeded. During my learning stages, I always chose comfort/non-irriation over closeness. Now I get about 95% BBS every day, with the remaing 5% being invisible neck stubble; I don't care about that, if I forcibly remove it I end up with red spots on my neck, so I don't do that. As I always say, better invisible stubble than visible irritation.
 
On very rare occasions I may skip a day due to unforeseen circumstances, but otherwise I don't skip a day nor do I want to. :wink:
 
My rule used to be: no uniform, no shave. But in reality, my beard is so thick, my skin gets irritated by my stubble. So now the most I rest is a day or two on the weekends.
 
I'd never feel properly 'clean' if I don't shave.
Even on a non work day if I delayed a while before shaving,I don't feel right until I do.

Can't say that I never missed a day,but can't recall one in recent memory.
 
I shave 2 to 3 times a day so it stays as clean as one can get. I've been doing 4 passes on my Slim Adjustable on the 9th setting and just dropping it back to 2 shaves a day. One when I wake up and later in the evening.
 
I only just started this so I shave every day because it's such a fun little activity. My facial hair is such that it doesn't look bad after about 3 days, and I imagine I will shave less often once I stop acquiring new products, but every new razor and every new piece of software has me impatiently waiting for the next day so I can use it :biggrin:

2 or 3 times a DAY? That must be some stubble you have.

Me, if I miss a day it's noticeable, so I rarely do. I like how clean my face feels afterwards as well. I could probably shave again in the evening but unless the morning shave was a rushed job, I wouldn't bother.
 
I usually skip Sundays. If I skip shaving for too many days in a row my face breaks out. Plus my beard is so thick skipping more than one day and it's almost impossible to shave.
 
Ill usually take a day off when I'm off work. I think it's good to let your face recover a couple days out of the week, plus my girlfriend likes the stubble and hair on my face which gives me another reason to skip!
