She shaved her legs tonight with my DE and a dollar general blade. off brand Gillette or persona I believe. And she made it look like she was a pro. She shaves better than I do. What a gal. Hopefully she decides she likes it and uses this method over cartridges in the future.
Do not set her up with any hardware you are partial to, or think you might become partial to. It will become HERS.
Not meaning to start a case of RAD for your girlfriend already But!...I've always thought the Schick-Eversharp K type, the Lady Eversharp was a smokin lady's razor....Check it out:
My fiance has a razorock synthetic brush, and she has my Super Speed and my Stahly head on a tech handle. I've lost one and 2/2 of my razors to her so far.
My wife has a late 40's nickle plated Fat Handle Tech. I got it and had it replated (RazorPlate) after she commandeered my gold Tech. And I agree, the women seem to be better at this that we are! She keeps telling me she could shave my face in half the time. But, I turned her down. I like my face just the way it is. No need to go all "Texas Chain Saw Massacre" on it!
I got my wife a Gillette Blue Star last year she loves it. I just have to remind her not to leave it in the shower and I do the maint. blade changes and cleaning.
Women are better at this than we are because they generally stand on their head, plugging their nose from the shower water, and shave their legs, mostly just ATG with crappy plastic razors following a quick rubdown with whatever garbage soap (Dial, etc...) is on the corner shower ledge. Plop her in a warm tub with a mild shaver, and hand her a lather bowl FULL of (insert high quality, awesome non-man smelling soap here), a warm soaked brush, and just about ANY crappy DE razor with a good blade. Show her one time how to make lather, and unless you are living with a wookie, she is not going to need help with any of this... Good for you...
I figured that was why. She normally shaves after she rubs down with bar soap. How she manages that is beyond me.
Actually this could be a great title for a Traditional Wet Shaving Romantic Comedy....maybe the "Shave Den Productions" first full length feature film....
Shes probably right....but it would rob you of the pleasure of rearranging your own face every morning....
