• How often do you shave? by Brydo on 26 Jun, 2016 03:29
• Whilst I love that BBS feeling on my head I'm finding it a little sensitive shaving every day. How often are you guys shaving? It's more the back corners of my head rather than at the front - could very well be tecnique also.
  
  This is using Quattro Titanium and Palmolive Shave Stick.

• I usually shave every third or fourth day, in most cases it's my first day off after a work rotation. Since I'm working this weekend, I will probably shave tomorrow (Monday) and the next shave will probably be Friday after working Wednesday/Thursday. But I do a random shave after only two days if I have something special going on...

• I hate the sandpaper feel, so it's every morning for me. Love the bbs look and feel.

  Agree with you completely. Hate that sandpaper feel, so i also shave every morning. Its a big part of how i know im going to be bbc sly guy for life, even though im only a little more than 6months in. I simply wouldnt be able to deal with the sandpaper feel, even for just a couple days while the hair grows out to at least long enough to become soft to the touch

• In general I shave every other day. But I do not shave ATG at the back of the head . If I would that area would itch. Sides go WTG and XTG , top  ATG . No irritation this way.

• Rarely is my razor is not in use every morning. I also am one who hates that sandpaper stubble.
  
  I often have another go with my DE in the evening to get rid of the 5:00 o'clock shadow.
  
  But, no, I am not an addict.

• I also like the BBS feel/look.  I usually shave twice a week.  I use electric razor, and it takes me a decent amount of effort to get the BBS.
  
  For those of you who like the BBS and are shaving more frequently, are you using electric razors or blades?

• Yes, Lee, shaving every day, I find it easy to use an electric just on the sides and back. Then, when I have time, DE razor against the grain after a shower. If I'm in a hurry, I'll shave in the shower with a Schick Extreme 3 disposable razor. They work really well, the blade is actually curved a little. After all, your head has very little flat surface!

• I shave typically every day.  With the headblade I find I need to shave every day but with the de I can easily skip a day and sometimes do.  I average 5-6 head shaves every full 7 day week

• Usually every third day.  As I am retired I don't have to front up to an office every day.  However for special occasions will take up the razor again for that smooth look and feel.

• I shave every 2 days, but I also hate the sandpaper... I find though I get a closer shave if I do it every 2 days unless I have an important event. I'll shave ATG every 2 days but do a proper WTG followed by ATG if I leave it more than 4 days

• I shave my head every morning.  As others have mentioned, I dislike the sandpaper feel as well.  I let my head go a week once without shaving it and absolutely hated the look.

• I am not familiar with the BBS acronym. I know BBC, BBN.  But what doe BBS stand for? Bald by Shaving? Thanks.
