Maybe Beagle likes to completely shave himself, but that's TMI as far as I'm concerned!
As for me, I'm on about the same shaving schedule; about twice a week. Some unexpected benefits are that my beard is far easier to shave, I don't get any skin irritation and my razors last for an insane amount of time (like four to six months!). They used to only last a couple of weeks... Of course, I live in the Pacific Northwest where, it seems, hygene and dressing nice are optional so YMMV.
