How often do you shave? How long does it take you? How do you do it?

Just curious as it feels like a chore for me. I usually do a with the grain shave with a safety razor and no product since I don’t have a lot of time and that gives the least irritation, but it’s not a close shave. I see guys that get stupid close shaves and I often wonder how much time they spend on it.

    My great grandpa was Chickasaw and had no facial hair, my grandpa had no facial hair, my dad grows a tiny thin mustache, and I have an ok beard and mustache. I didn’t have to start shaving until my mid 20’s. I maybe trim up and shave twice a month now. But I also let the beard just stay at a constant length and shave around it then trim the mustache. Sadly where most people’s beard and mustache connect together that area for me is very patchy so I shave it.

    Electric razor. Takes me 5-6 minutes and I do it every day before I jump in the shower. Typically while in the shower I will feel if I missed a hair or something and I can go back to get it.

    Today I missed a small hair on my cheek and it’s been driving me nuts all day.

    I would just grow out a beard but I have very bad beard genetics so it’s better for me if I keep it clean shaven lol.
