When I shaved my face, I'd need to do it in the morning pretty much every day. In COVID times, this has resulted in a beard.
With my head, I'll shave whenever and prefer every 2nd day with a 3 pass dome clearing.

Night shaving has always been a therapeutic activity for me. The silence and time alone, is perfect for reflecting on your day.

I usually make an espresso when I get home and head off to the shave den when I get home. About 17:30 or so. If I get lazy, I will have to wait until 22:00 because I have wine with dinner. Sometimes it’s nice to shave this late, but I am usually too exhausted and the shave isn’t really enjoyable.

When I was working I would shave every morning before work.  Now that I'm retired I still shave in the morning but I usually leave it to every second day.  I always enjoy the 2 day growth shave more than the every day one.  I don't get to it until mid morning, usually around 9:30-10am .  I'm still up at 0500 but I am not in a rush - I read, meditate savour a nice pour over coffee (make coffee for my wife who is still working) then have a leisurely breakfast after which I'll go shower and shave.  I like the fresh clean feeling of a freshly shaved mug and I enjoy whatever aftershave or cologne I've put on.  If I shaved at night I wouldn't have that feeling for very long before dropping off to sleep.  I'll also re-apply splash once or twice throughout the day.  It would disturb my wife if I were to get up a couple of times in the night to reapply splash.  Although these days I seem to be getting up a few times to relieve myself anyway so I could always just reapply then.   Big Grin

It depends sometime in morning and as well at night, prefer night time this way don’t feel rushed and enjoy my shaves  Happy2my Way. I also prefer to shave every 2nd day this way you have enough growth and no ingrown hairs etc..skin feels more healthier and better for you overall..but hey YMMV…

Usually in the morning. Once in a while an evening shave on the weekend does the soul good though.

Normally shave in the morning before work. Shaving in the evening however, allows me more time to enjoy the moment.

Usually, shaving is a part of the daily ritual that keeps things for me in a regular way and has a significant influence on how my day will go. I shave my face before I start my day to stay more focused after I wake up. I feel fresh after shaving and showering. It takes around 30 mins. Using the aromatherapy shaving products+ good music keeps my vibes at a reasonable level. I make laser hair removal ealing procedures for other problematic parts of my body. Have a great day, gents!
