"Shaving" often refers to men who cut their facial hair with a razor or clipper. Sometimes they just trim their facial hair while other men completely shave it. Some people do not shave the chin, this is called a goatee beard. Other men do not shave the upper lip, this is called a mustache.
In addition to this, many men choose to shave their heads and be bald. In many armies, male soldiers are required (have to) shave their heads.
