I always shave once a year wether I need it or not ...If it grows on your ass it can't be that important.

Definitely both ways. With first and then against to make sure you got the little bastards that only ducked the first time. I'm with squizzy but I usually manage once a week.

I don't get a very tough beard and my face hair grows slowly. My father was the same, didn't start shaving until he was 18. I have to shave against the grain otherwise nothing comes off.
Luckily, most of the energy that would have gone to creating hair that would normally grow on my face, arms, back, crack, etc comes out of my head instead.
My dogs, on the otherhand, have real facial hair problems - those eyebrows definately need sorting:

The only time I shave is when I'm testing my chisels and plane blades for sharpness. I normally run the blade along the top of my left arm in a direction from the wrist to my elbow.
I am not sure if this is with or against or sideways to the grain. If heaps of hairs are cut then I resume my woodwork, if not I keep honing.- Wood Borer

I would use my chisels to shave my head too except I was blessed with a beautiful head like Christopha - the others grow hair to hide their ugliness. :eek:

Head hair is definitely over-rated.
