Being non-Cypriot (and thus not extremely hairy!) it's twice a week for me at the moment. But I'm hoping to get a job in the next month or so, in which case, it will have to be 3 or 4
Longest I ever went without shaving was 2 months, ended up looking like a vagrant so never again... |

One thing you can bet ON North OR South is the Barber Shops Gossip about everything from Politics to Brothels:
Also if I don't shave at least twice a day by the end of the week I look like Cornelius from Planet of the Apes:
the only person I know that has more hair than me is my mother in law But she uses the lawn mower NOT the shaver: |

I use aromatic soap (imported from America), which I apply to my face using only my hands. I shave with Gilette Mach III, using down-stokes.
I once tried to grow a beard, but I turned out looking like Makarios IV, so I shaved it.  |

I don't shave. I have a beard that I trim once in a while, and I use the same trimmer to cut hair off everything else. That's some Philishave product - 9 for beard, 1 for everything else.
How often? Well, usually, when everything else grows so much that beard is indestinguishable (yeah, I know, spelling). That's about every two weeks or so. My wife hates me for this though.
I just don't care about the look of it, really. And I don't usually spend a lot of time on things that I don't care about.  |

Mate my dad has a cousin called Trichina's:
And man this guy could play the werewolf of London with out mark up: He had hair growing on his HAIR!
I remember when we went to the beach ever one said look at that guy in the fur coat going swimming!!!
When the poor man started going bald he said I wish some of the hair on my back started growing back on my head:
When his wife had a baby they thought she mated with a chimpanzee: The poor child when she was about 2 years old the neighbors used to throw bananas and peanuts at her: |

This is just slightly creepy - I am exactly the same! Gillette is one of those instances where a certain brand is demonstrably better than the rest (Bic blades are particularly bad ...).
Treatment of head is a different I suspect ... 10 minutes using no.1 blade on a pair of clippers (wielded by my partner), followed by Pledge and yellow duster. Only joking about the last two

weird. I use Gillette Mach 3 as I don't like the lady models. You can't get them cleaned properly, due to all that plastic and stuff around the blade... |
