go to you tube, search straight razor shaving, look at the videos and show her.
There are a few where some "tools" are pretending to shave that have some cuts here and there, avoid those.

I'm here to tell you, she will love the results. Do what you have to do to learn this skill and the results will speak for themselves. Isn't a dangerous as just driving in traffic.I know no one who has been hurt by a razor, how many people do you know who have been hurt by cars?

Welcome to SRP. My wife was concerned when I started a few years ago, but now she is fully onboard with my hobby. I got her to switch from cartridges to a Merkur DE, brush, and quality shave soap and she loves it. Just ask your wife how she thinks men shaved before Gillette made millions selling plastic crap.

Just remind her every 13 year old boy 100 years ago HAD to shave this way. If a child can do it so can you.

Wellcome to the site,just do it.
After 35 years of marriage my wife never knows what I am doing or where I am 90% of the time
create your own space,buy a straight,buy a strop,and never look back.Enjoy
