Currently shave (with clippers) every 1-2 weeks. Rocking a skin head (grade 1) at the moment so do my head and face at the same time. So much easier and you save a fortune on shampoo!

Haven't had a wet shave in over 4 years.

King George V was a German and the rules are different for them. I am not of the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha.

How unhygenic is a beard, a proper beard which you can grab with your hand.

That's the weekly trim done, feel all sleepy now.............Was rather un-nerving today though as he has 1 1/2 eyes on the IPL match and 1/2 an eye ball avoiding slitting my jugular.
