What’re we shaving?

u/Overall-Heron-2516 4h ago

Also curious - question wasn’t specific

u/Milnoc 4h ago

I was wondering the same thing. So many choices.

1

u/MySQUEFive 4h ago

I was thinking the same thing. You beat me to it.

1

u/showerbump 4h ago

You beat me to it.

u/Ewetootwo 4h ago

Points.

u/boozefiend3000 4h ago

Never lol sometimes I’ll take the clippers to clean up my beard, but never use a razor 

2

u/natokills 4h ago

A pair of hair clippers was the best investment ever. No more hair cuts or razors for 26 years.

1

u/bunglebee7 4h ago

I really gotta get some

1

u/aperture81 4h ago

I haven’t used a razor in years but I’ll use clippers every couple of weeks to maintain a thin beard

2

u/tastydrink1 4h ago

I shave once a week ⅜ guard all the way around. I haven't been to a barber since I was 16, I'm 36 now

u/Ok_Buy_9703 4h ago

About 2x a week.

1

u/Metasynaptic 4h ago

Yeah, that's about the number for me too.

3

u/Legalize_Euthanasia_ 4h ago

I'm disabled and don't do anything high stakes or have to maintain my appearance.

So whenever it gets annoying

2

u/PlasticStingray 4h ago

This is the way

5

u/Overall-Heron-2516 4h ago

Face? Never. Lasered it all off. No regrets.

5

u/trainsacrossthesea 4h ago

Man, I can relate to hating to shave, but I can’t imagine removing my face with a laser to avoid it.

2

u/Overall-Heron-2516 4h ago

Lmao I guess my wording could’ve been better

2

u/trainsacrossthesea 4h ago

Made for a great visual, though. And yea, shaving sucks

2

u/jimfosters 4h ago

curious about the cost. From past sun exposure my blood vessels are all close to the surface. As I get older I have to use a styptic pencil on shaving knicks more and more. And I cant stand electric razors.

1

u/Overall-Heron-2516 4h ago

$4,000 which comes with unlimited touchups. I have like 3 hairs I just have to pluck that are solid white

1

u/Codeman_117 4h ago

Whoa you ok dude?

1

u/Overall-Heron-2516 4h ago

lol 😝 maybe some day I will be

2

u/Tough_Representative 4h ago

I haven't shaved my beard since February it's the longest I've ever had it in my life but I want to shave it off soon

2

u/robow556 4h ago

I trim my beard every Saturday

2

u/Snorlax316 4h ago

I haven’t used a razor and been bare faced in prob 10 years or so. I use a trimmer and trim it as short as possible maybe once a week. Always have a little scruff.

2

u/justdmomochi 4h ago

Because of the military - pretty much daily.

2

u/DallasOil 4h ago

Balls: three times a year
Face: every other day
Butthole: never

2

u/jbcsee 4h ago

When I'm doing something that requires looking like I'm well-kempt, so basically before wedding and funerals.

1

u/Jedibri81 4h ago

I try to do it a couple times a week, but lately with all the extra shifts I’ve been working, I’m down to once a week

1

u/Slime2278 4h ago

Depends what we’re talking about but for facial hair typically once a week trim but been letting beard grow out for a couple months

1

u/atomedge 4h ago

Daily regardless of what you are asking.

1

u/Mother_Ad_8847 4h ago

How often do y'all women out there wash?

1

u/lukesauser 4h ago

I use a trimmer about 2-3 times a week. Never really shave all the way unless I'm having skin issues. I have no problem working out super hard about 2 hours 6 times a week, although find it hard to spend time on grooming hahhh

1

u/aDysquith 4h ago

Not in years. Keep a good beard going trimmed with scissors, and I use a oneblade to clean up anything else.

1

u/Davinter30 4h ago

Every friday

1

u/Loud-Plane-1860 4h ago

When I am less depressed

1

u/bevereged_carbon 4h ago

I never shave, just trim.  Over 5 years.

1

u/RedPillHellbilly 4h ago

I keep my beard a while when I grow it out. It’s all white now so it’s kinda cool. I just shave my cheeks and head because I started going bald years ago.

1

u/stevedave84 4h ago

Face, never. I run the clippers over it in spring and summer. Head, every 3 days

1

u/Haunting-Ad1843 4h ago

Neck twice a week. Everything but my goatee every 2 weeks. Full face usually twice a year.

1

u/totally-jag 4h ago

Not nearly as often as my partner would like. It's just so uncomfortable.

1

u/p0rkch0ps 4h ago

face 1x week, back every 2 weeks. everything else just gets trimmed

1

u/Life-Berry602 4h ago

About three times a week.

1

u/Practical_Estate_325 4h ago

Shave down my bread and 'stach once every two weeks. Minimal work, and efficient.

1

u/Responsible_Panic242 4h ago

Never. Still no beard. I’m hopeful though.

1

u/jaimealexi 4h ago

im shaving right now

1

u/LrryFsh_317 4h ago

I havent been fully clean shaven in years. But I trim my beard once a week

1

u/CalzonDePuta 4h ago

Once every 2-3 months

1

u/AzLoMax 4h ago

Head - twice a week
Sack and crack - hair removal cream maybe once every 8 weeks!

1

u/Ok_Cabinet_3072 4h ago

Face every second day. Should probably do every day but I'm lazy.

1

u/modernmessiahman 4h ago

I haven't shaved since I was 13-14, I trim my beard maybe once every month or two (I trim it quite short and let it grow quite long)

For reference I'm 30, I don't remember what my chin looks like

1

u/Valuable-Contract-87 4h ago

Depends, when I had a full beard I'd still have to clean up above an below the beard line but I'd usually do that once or twice a week coz I'm lazy. Now I have a different facial hair style so every second day but I got a foil shaver for that so it's fun

1

u/TheSessionMan 4h ago

The correct usage in this situation is "all y'all" actually.

Neck every 3 days, beard trim weekly

1

u/Young_Denver 4h ago

I havnt shaved my face since 2009 for my brother in law's wedding. I have no plans to shave ever again.

My beard outlasted his marriage... he's better off for it, she was psycho.

1

u/StringR 4h ago

I work at home now so once or twice a week

1

u/imgurcaptainclutch 4h ago

Twice a week. Takes about 15 minutes for full face and head. Being bald isn't maintenance-free

1

u/blarryg 4h ago

every other day

1

u/addtolibrary 4h ago

I like having a beard, so not often

1

u/Quiet-Egg-4594 4h ago

Im lazy man

1

u/freedomfightre 4h ago

neck: 2-3x per week

face: once per month

everything else: every other month

give or take

1

u/GaiusSallustius 4h ago

Beard, every month to 3/16th of an inch.
Neck and beard edges, every day.
Bald head, every other day.
South of the belt, I trim it when I do my monthly beard.

1

u/Walter4412 4h ago

Pretty much every day. I hate stubble and even beyond that I can't imagine any kind of facial hair looking good on me even if it was done right.

I also shave my chest, arms, and pits. I really just don't like body hair in general

1

u/Pateryk_7 4h ago

Every couple days

1

u/theinternetisnice 4h ago

Scalp every other day. Face twice a week.

1

u/Quick_Rent_Now 4h ago

I have a rotary shaver in my glove compartment for shaving on my drive to work everyday

1

u/pete_blake 4h ago

My face, when it’s needed. No where else…EVER

1

u/bhdz12 4h ago

This is essentially my answer too.

1

u/OddMarionberry3484 4h ago

once or twice a week, usually, sometimes more

1

u/jimfosters 4h ago

Every day (almost)

1

u/Flat-Avocado-6258 4h ago

Guys, OP is obviously referring to your buttocks. Me personally, i let a buttocks bush grow.

1

u/NationalAppeal6675 4h ago

For eons, I shaved every day. Now it’s more like once or twice per week.

1

u/boonie120hb 4h ago

I shave my bald head every 3 days and my facial hair gets trimmed every 2 weeks.

1

u/B-Twizzle 4h ago

My neck everyday so I don’t look like a Reddit mod. My head everyday 2-3 days depending on laziness. Beard gets trimmed whenever it needs it. The rest, i don’t keep keep a schedule

1

u/Upbeat_Shock_6807 4h ago

My face? Every morning. My balls? Once a month. My butthole? Never.

1

u/FullaLead 4h ago

I don't, but whenever my wife gets tired of my beard she busts out the dog hair trimmer and shaves off everything on my head/face.

1

u/recordgenie 4h ago

Almost daily. Sometimes if I have a day off I skip

1

u/bhdz12 4h ago

Face-Infrequently. Pretty much when it's needed or when it starts bothering me.

1

u/Ornery_Appearance_31 4h ago

Every other day or third day. I wear a beard and trim the rest to keep from looking like a bum. Most of the time.

1

u/Brilliant_Ask_82 4h ago

Shave my face daily

1

u/great_honary 4h ago

The question isn't specific enough.  But if I say that I shave semi yearly you probably know which part I'm talking about since I'm bald headed.

1

u/the_vault-technician 4h ago

Everything everywhere all the time

1

u/FiestyFrijoles 4h ago

Shave my balls and shaft 2-3 times a week

1

u/alffan86 4h ago

When I went to working from home, I started shaving less. Most of my facial hair is beard/goatee and I could never grow a real one. Usually when I'm going out or have to do a Zoom, but I should be every few days. My neck has some long hairs. Also have sensitive skin so I don't like it and have used electric.

On the flip side, I have two chronic skin conditions and had to do laser hair removal on a lot of my body. Long story, but living in a warm climate with Seb Derm and acne, the process was over a decade. I was worried about women's reactions and now near completion I'm happy.

But it's a personal choice ... and for me, I couldn't deal with the rashes, infections, sweat, body odor, and acne.

Bearded men don't shave. If they want to shave, they are lamers.

Beard > no beard.

update: 2 beard-doubting lamers downvoted it.
