So have y'all tried out Dollar Shave Club? I think I'm in love. For $6/mo., I have a new blade for each week. They work as well as the much more expensive Gillette blades I've always used...I had forgotten what it was like to not be using a 3-month-old blade that was so dull it plucked rather than shaved. And since I refuse to shave every day unless I have an important meeting, I can actually stockpile blades.  I know this isn't as sophisticated as going and sitting in a barber's chair for a straight-blade shave, but for those of us who cringe at the idea of paying $10/blade at Walmart, it's well worth it.

I've heard that advertised on ESPN radio, sounds intriguing. 

Or you could just do what I did and grow a beard.

Yed. Glad I'm not the only one participating in a no-shave winter. CObh doesn't much like it but I have no plans to expose my face to the cold air until at least the end of February.

I'm pretty sure he was talking about Vinnie.

I grew mine 2 1/2 years ago when I took my new job.  My wife loves it and urged me to keep it. 

I trim it weekly, but it's still incredibly easier than keeping up shaving!

I shave once a week (cheeks above my beard and neck line below) because I have to.  I went a couple of weekd this month and my wife commented on it.  I hate shaving and welcome the day I retire so I can go a month or so between.

I was trimming mine weekly but the holidays hit and I grew increasingly lazy. She made me trim it on Saturday and it was the first time in at least 3 weeks. It was a little unruly, to be honest.

This is my normal mode. I shave on Monday mornings unless something special forces me to do otherwise. Sometimes I keep other facial hair but the beard is typically just a winter thing. Nobody at my work minds, so I just do what's easy and comfortable.

There are so many ways to take that chart-- and so many ways in which it is a bad and misleading chart-- that I will not add any commentary. But I too find it hilarious.
