shave every day or once a week

Since I have been working from home, on days where I dont see anyone, I generally dont shave. While I would like to say those days are few and far between it usually goes on for a week.

My question is, that while I am showering every day, I am only shaving once a week. Is that better or worse for my skin than shaving every day?

Who cares, it looks cooler. I actually never really shave...I just use my clippers and take it down to the guard like every Sunday night or so.

Thanks Don Jonson.

I wanted to know what was better for my skin.

Shaving is a quite and dirty way to exfoliate part of your skin. Most people shouldn't do that everyday so maybe shave twice a week?

God help us all who actually turn up at their jobs each day, looking properly groomed.

Still, we find a way to make it work.

I'd say shaving a light beard everyday is less stressful than shaving a heavier beard every 3- less stress, less pulling, less irritation. It's true for me regardless of if it's true for anyone else.

Every other day is a nice tradeoff. Shaving a heavy beard isn't a problem either, and is actually much easier on my skin so long as I'm using a real razor and not a multibladed Gillette carrot scraper. If it pulls rather than cuts, then your razor isn't sharp enough. Length of the beard really shouldn't matter.
