I normally skip a day or two between shaves because I like the feel of going from stubble to smooth skin. Last week, I skipped more than a couple days - I waited a whole week. My stubble was past the itchy stage. I prepped my mug, brush and razor and then took a hot shower. After my hot shower I lathered up and shaved. Often when I skip a few days, a second pass is not needed. This was one of them. Everything came off on the first swipe. No nicks and no sting from my alcohol based aftershave. I was very pleased with myself and the shave. That was last Saturday night before I went in to work the overnight. I just got home from work and was thinking about that shave, as I need to get up early and shave in the morning as I need to attend several meetings tomorrow.
It's been four days since my last shave and I'm looking forward to my next one. That is something that I could not say truthfully with I was using the razors that is the norm in todays world. I could shave in the morning with a Mach3 and easily could shave again at night. With the DE, I can go a day and a half before the next shave. With a straight, two maybe three days. Although it's been four days since my last shave, I should have shaved a day or two ago, but with no meetings and working the overnight I am able to get away with not shaving. :-)
