What a lazy week I've had! I've been pretty regimented with shaving every other day but this week, I got lazy and seemed to always be running behind that I haven't shaved in 6-7 days! feels kinda weird to be feeling this hair on my head again. But gotta get smooth again today. To top it off, I haven't trimmed my beard in a couple of weeks so it's looking a little scruffy and the mustache is growing over my lip. Gotta take care of that too! Time to get back to the routine!
What's the longest you all have gone from being lazy or just feeling like you just didn't have time?
-
I may have gone a week once or twice, but that is about all I can take.
-
I had an off week, last week, but because I was sick. When Sunday came around I had a long shave in the shower and it felt so good.

Today marks only the fourth day in a little more than a year that I have not shaved.
I hate the sand paper feeling, and the horseshoe is very visible right now.
I had the day off and started working on projects as soon as I got up so the whole shower and shave routine got thrown off.
You can bet I will be smooth again tomorrow.
-
Idk. I just started and I dont think I could go a week. It would drive me crazy.
-
About five days, maybe six. Like cave dwelle, I hate the sandpaper feeling.
-
I skipped shaving this morning. Difficult to get the knit ski cap on my head due to stubble.
Much easier on a fresh shave dome.
-
The longest is probably 4 days of not head shaving which is a rarity for me. I gotta keep the dome smoooooth. O:O

About a month back in 2009 when I got injured at work and could not shave to avoid popping the stitches in my face. Talk about agonizing....
-
Finally shaved the head smooth again this evening. Took so much longer to shave with a week's worth of hair growth! I was annoyed! I learned my lesson, I'm never doing that again. Gotta stick with the routine.
I also cleaned up the beard which also took longer to do. Another lesson learned. Finally I am back to my bald and bearded self!
-
Nice one Doc.
I shave on a Sunday and a Wednesday at the moment. I dont mind the stubble though and i dont think my poor head could take a lot of scraping! lol

Whenever I go about 6 days or so between shaving, I go to the barber and let him do it. He has better clippers than I do, and its kind of a nice treat. Its about $15.00 per shave, so I try to keep that to a rarity.
-
I shave every day so going a week or longer would drive me freaking bonkers LOL I hate the sandpaper feel that same evening! I love the smoothness of my morning shave :)
-
A week or so could be longer I do not mind the hair growth and the sand paper feeling but everyones tolorence level is different.
-
I sometimes let it grow for a a week or so, just to see if my MPB has got any worse.
-
For me I think the most I went was 4 days. I'm so used to a shaved head that having that grit rest against my pillow or on the back of my office chair starts to feel foreign to me. By that point i HAVE to shave it because I'm shocked (and reminded) how far back my hairline receded
-
Rarely ever more than a day or two every now and then. Love that smooth feeling!
-
lately it seems like I've been short on time as well, I've been going every other day, I've been an every day type of shaver for a while now, when i skip shaving I also skip shaving my face as well, gotta get back to it, you just get busy and prioritize things. It happens to everyone now and then.
-
Back to the routine of shaving every other day. However, I did shave two days in a row (yesterday and today) and now understand why there are some every days shavers. So much easier and quicker when there is minimum hair growth.

yes I totally agree with you, and the irritation seems to be much less as well, much faster! And that's an awesome thing! I like shaving but can be a little bit of a chore sometimes especially if your strapped for time.

i may try every other day
