Post by: slyjoe on January 25, 2013, 08:07:27 PM
Who here shaves more than once a day? I was thinking about doing that sometime but didnt know what the outcome would be.

I don't think that would be a good idea Joe.  You could get a very sore head.   ;) O0

I haven't done it yet, but would consider it if I had an important dinner/function.

I sometimes do twice a day. By sometimes I mean maybe every third day. I wouldn't suggest trying it right off, as in the first couple weeks of shaving the dome, nor making it an every day habit. It all depends on the head and the skin and a little rough patchiness is a lot better than a serious razor burn.

Hey joe, I have had it to so you aren't alone.  That is another reason why I don't have alot of razors LOL or I proably would be shaving more than I should .  Your ok ,don't sweat the small stuff.   ;) O0

Not for me. I shave every other day because even shaving every day causes back-of-neck irritation.

Agreed.

Occasionally, I've shaved twice a day. But for those reasons, I've stopped that.

I on't do it. You're looking at a much greater chance of razor burn, ingrown hairs, etc..

Generally only MWF.  Shaving twice a day is like flossing 8X a day.  Overkill.

Not that Ming is completely unfond of "overkill" in the proper context.

I'm an everyday guy.

But if I have a special evening planned I'll do another shave before going out. Curiously, those nights just seem to be all around better :-)

I shave twice a day. Normally before work at the gym, after my work out and then again in the evening before bed.

I think my heads pretty tough so I don't suffer with rashes. I like the smooth feeling and by the evening I tend to have the sandpaper feel back on my head. I like feeling the just shaved feeling on my pillow too.

When I was sick last week, I notice and others commented on how quick my hair grows (it starts further back and there is a hole on the crown but the rest grows!) So keeping smooth is a full time commitment!
