Don't shave my legs at all. Whenever I see them smooth legs on a man I kind of wonder what part of Cali they grew up in, lol.
The hair on my legs and back makes my longjohns stand out at least a half inch, and that's a good thing at 40 below.

21 years unshaven
the day I met my wife for the first time , was the last time I shaved. before that I had shaved some in my teens before my beard came in decent , I had shaved off my beard and kept just the Mustache in January of 1998 a few days before a job interview.
I kept shaving till I had been at the job several months.
I met my wife online and we had been talking a couple months in emails , when we met in person for the first time she said she liked beards and that was good news because I despised shaving.
haven't shaved since , took it down to a 1/2 inch a few times in the summer with the clippers but that is as close to shaving as I have been.

once a long beard has a good crust of ice it blocks the wind well natural insulation, I felt a little bad my sons face was all wind burned this winter when we were cutting wood , he is 15 and his beard hasn't quite filled in yet. it should in 3 more years I know it's time to trim my beard when I shoulder my shotgun or rifle and get beard between the but stock and my shoulder , that pulls a little.

My first can of shaving cream, old spice, rusted out before it was empty. Have used soap and a straight razor a few times.
Been thinking of shaving me head, but it might not grow back haha.

I haven't been unshaven as long as most on here. I haven't fully shaved in about 3 years... not that my beard comes in all that well. Kinda looks like I'll be the next trailer park star on COPS, but it's fine by me.
It's a trappers life for me

I have not shaved since 1972; just trim the beard every month or so. Same here, Had a belly full of it in the service, came home from the 'Nam and gave it up.Still have a bunch of blades and a couple of cans of Barbasol I bought cheap at the PX before I left.Trim it up 2-3 times a year.

My last shave was in 1977 or 78. Do not remember exactly. Kept the mustache and beard trimmed until about 5 years ago. Just trim the mustache now.

Five or Six years ago I had 10 days off around Christmas. I decided I was going to take a break from shaving for that time and would shave again the day before I had to go back to work. At the end of that week, I just couldn't bring myself to pick up the razor. So many hours wasted shaving in those 40+ years that I will never get back.
For the first year, I would trim neatly every few days, maybe once a week. I'm down to the occasional wayward hair being plucked by fingers or snipped with my pocket knife.
