How often

How much do you guys shave? I am wondering if over shaving will cause skin issues. I have been doing it every 3rd day which is fine.... except somehow on weekends I have a hard time finding time to shave maybe cause I'm still new at it and takes me so long to do. I went a day over today and it is driving me crazy.
Going to the gym at lunch so I will just make time.

Every day - sometime even going after the dome a second time at night with the CleanHead, just to make things go more smoothly the next morning.
Like your face, the skin on top will adjust over time and you will get used to how ever often you end up deciding to shave.

I try to do it everyday, but I tend to average 5-6 times a week.

There is nothing better than a freshly shaved bald doom for me. So I shave daily early in the morning at 6 am. Come noon time, I do a touch up to get rid of any stubble that begins to show up. I have found out the hard way that skipping a day will result in a lot of irritation and cuts that are not very attractive. In time your doom will become adjusted to the shaving, and you should be able to get the routine that best suits you. As for making time to shave, well that is up to you. Good luck

Every other day for me -- otherwise, I get irritation on the back of my neck.

Daily. A velcro day is a bad day for me.

Every day in the morning.
A good shave and a smooth dome are a good start in a good day

I typically do it every day, but sometimes i'll skip a day. After a while your scalp toughens up, it shouldn't cause any skin issues.
If you're having troubles with razor burn and dryness, try shaving in the shower. I had lots of razor burn problems until I started shaving in the shower now I no longer have those problems.

When I first started, I used to shave every day. Then I got over it. Now it's 3 days a week, unless I need to spiff up for a special occasion. A couple of years ago, I ruptured my right biceps tendon and couldn't shave for 3 months. Kinda looked like Little Caesar, I did.

Daily - in the morning. If I had the energy at the end of the day I'd shave again. I'm not a fan of the sandpaper feeling.
