Question for the guys: how often do you shave your face?

Question

OneViewpoint · Accepted Answer

Well it's complex... but not very complex. When I'm clean shaven I shave every day, face, neck, hairline on back of neck. At the moment I have a full beard. Sometimes it's a mustache and goatee. Once a week I give myself a haircut and trim my facial hair including eyebrows, nose, and ear hairs. And I still shave my beard lines and neck, front and rear, every day. I shave my pubic hair, shaft and balls once a week when I cut my hair and trim / shape the rest with a cordless trimmer. It started out as a field hygiene thing but now that I've grown up and matured it's a courtesy for the bedroom. I shave my armpits once every 2 weeks or so. Hygiene thing from being in the field so much for 15 years. But I still get sweaty as hell on long runs and backpacking / mountain climbing. Deodorant and antibacterial powder works much better without all the hair if you're gonna go without a shower for 5 days. I have moderate chest hair and virtually no back hair so, I leave that alone. No Greek/Turkish sweater to worry about.

I trim every other week, I only do a major beard cut at the beginning of Summer, then again just before Winter. I dont grow my beard long, just enough for it to be full

Wraith_Cemetery · Answer

Only shave my neck area and only trim the face. I haven't completely shaven my beard in over a decade.

Tarifa · Answer

I used to do it every weekday, when I worked in an office. Now it's every 3 or 4 days. I have relatively sensible skin, so I always get irritated after a shave, at least the first few hours. I also sometimes cut myself inadvertently when I'm in a hurry.

The most I've gone without shaving was 2 weeks.

aceleon · Answer

depends, i don't have a stable facial hairstyle, sometimes i go clean shaved, sometimes a goatee with mustache sometimes 5 o, clock shadow sometimes full but short beard sometimes a cave man sometimes wolverine mutton chop.

my facial hair or lack thereof doesn't cause me losing attractiveness points, every style goes for me.

AviatorTom · Answer

Interesting question. Up until a few years ago, my facial hair grew very slowly. Shaving once a week with my electric shaver was fine. Now, though, I have to shave at least every other day, sometimes every day.

I'm guessing that's due to hormone changes as I age.

AgentG111 · Answer

Depending on what is going on for the week it varies. Can be every day to every two days. Having red hair that's turning white it's not as noticeable as those with darker hair.

Am I working at a point where I need to?

Or not a requirement at that point of work for the week persay.

Lliam · Answer

Every two days or so. I only have to shave my cheeks and neck, though, because I have trimmed sideburns that connect to a mustache and goatee. I used to hate having to shave my entire face.

HawkPerception · Answer

Usually every 2 to 3 days to clean up my patchy beard. If I'm going out to socialize, I always do it though. I just set my razor to a certain length setting and shave away.

Jersey2 · Answer

Depends on my schedule. If nothing on it like it is most days now, I don’t shave. After about 10 days or so I will shave because my wife prefers me to and dislikes when I go past 14 days or so.

BobbieBoy666 · Answer

Every other day and I shave more than my face I shave other areas of my body. My dream is to have all smooth hairless body.

Once a week… but I do like to facewash with shaving cream cause it feels very refreshing and feels very soft

Usually every other day, but the first of October every year I stop shaving to grow out my beard for Christmas. I play Santa for the children every year. They can't pull it off that way.

A beard actually suits me, but I don't find it hygienic, so I shave it weekly with a razor.
