Ladies' razors

[Helveticum]

Now that's an interesting specimen. Classy.

[SmallBeard]

It's how I imagine a giant would feel using a DE razor. I must admit the pictures did make me laugh.

I want SWMBO to try a DE as I think she would like it, but as she put it she "ain't interested in your (my) shaving crap!".

[Al H]

Surely an imitation from a dolls house

[Gairdner]

SWMBO successfully uses an octagonal ivory handled Jagger DE with TOBS rose cream and Jagger Super Badger brush. She finishes off with witch hazel that's had a few drops of Lavender EO added to it and rather enjoys the whole process. Good results with no irritation and so much cheaper on the blades. She's not interested in shaving crap in the slightest, just as long as the kit she has continues to perform as it does she'll be very happy. The rate she uses the cream at, it'll be late 2015 before she needs more and the 200 Personna Platinum Chrome may well see her into old age!

I've often looked at them razors and had no idear they were so small

i treated swmbo to her birthyear gillette, its one of those stars ones, hers is blue but there was a pink version too. it has a nice long handle, to help stretch to the bottom of the legs i suppose & looks really nice, but sadly she only used it a couple of times

I'd like to bring this down several levels and say you're a lucky boy she has such a small one.

Glad you took it the right way, Rick.

Exactly my thoughts when I saw this. It's on sale with a bunch of normal DEs, if anyone's interesting in engaging in the bidding war I can send a link. Yankee land though.

I think the incentive to get into DE shaving isn't as powerful with the ladies.

Firstly, they don't shave every day (far less in fact) so dedication to mastering a difficult technique may not be what us guys, who must shave most days, would devote.

Secondly, the process for those who don't see and enjoy daily benefits may seem laborious and overly-fussy.

Thirdly, DE razors are rarely produced in pink or aqua.

Gave mine a Streamline, and she did get some good results with it - a couple of times. Then it's back to the cartridges. I've not given up yet, though But this sort of contraption would've been invaluable in the arsenal, as it's not the legs that are usually an issue with them switching to DEs.

[singerman]

good points guys, and lets face it, they have far more to shave than we have to!

The other half uses my EJ89. She's getting a better result with it than the disposables, which is just as well given the amount of blood that's on the bathroom floor. She's persevering though.
