Getting Back To Shaving Every Day

Being retired I don't have to shave daily, and generally have been in the habit of shaving every second or third day. 

Ten years ago, when I got into this 'wet shaving' as the sport we practice, I used to shave daily because I wanted to.

Wished I could shave twice a day back then, I was so enthusiastic.

But time passes and anything can get old after awhile, so the luster wore off, and it became less compelling for me.

Lately I've gotten the old enthusiasm back. Checking out different Wolfman models, gaps, handle/head combinations.

Also Charcoal Goods, Karve, Blackbird, same thing.

So doing all of this experimenting with these razors, not to mention blades, I have been shaving daily.

I find now if I reach up and feel stubble I want to go shave. 

Kind of cool to recapture that old joy of shaving I've missed for a number of years now. 

Congratulations and if you want or you are able to shave even more, you could try shaving your head/dome (depending on how much - or less - hair you have left). I shave twice, every day.

Thanks, not a bad idea, but I'll keep what I've got. The 'Kojak' look never did anything for me. 

I've been wet shaving for a little over 5 years now and I still enjoy shaving every day. I also get irritation if I skip more than one day. I usually shave 6 days a week.

Quoted for truth. This limit of once per day is restricting my learning!

Zealots! Maybe 3 times per week over here. I get my best shaves in 3+ days growth. The longer, the better. I find it quite fun to take that much hair off in one pass.

I usually try to shave daily, but I usually skip a day early in the week. Like Dayman said, if I skip more than a day I tend to have an irritated shave. Happy shaves brother!

I'm retired, but I've got to shave everyday. It's just a habit I developed. I did let a full beard grow for a short time many years ago, but that had to go. The only variant in my shaving now is how many passes per shave. If I am going to meet the Lovely Ms. Marie, nothing less than a three pass shave with a Feather will suffice. If I don't expect to see her, two passes with a Feather will do an acceptable job. But neither the LMM nor I can stand the bristle of a missed shave.

Didn't Dory in Finding Nemo have a saying..."just keep shaving, just keep shaving"? Oh, wait...

Hey, me too. I got busy, and started to get scruffy - shaving twice a week. Just last week I got back into shaving everyday again, and I gotta say it's pretty nice!
