Thread: Girls and straight razors

There are already some female-targeted shaving products, like Mama Bear's shaving soaps for women, the e-shave pink-handled brush and the SCS shave stick for chicks. I bet finding a mug of bowl with something "feminine" wouldn't be hard, seems a number of older scuttles have floral motifs on them anyway.

Don't think I've ever seen a straight with pink scales though, yet.

I can see it now (from experience)...

All the razors are dull from leg shaving. No need to sharpen them as the hubby will do that anyway.

I had to buy 2 sets of razors and hide one so my wife wouldn't use mine and put it back till I put sharp ones on, than use it again (dulling it)... Drove me nuts.

Now she has all her own cartriges for her M3 and will not go near my straights... as it should be... MINE ALL MINE!!!!

I thought it would be a GREAT idea to get my wife to shave with a DE, a real brush, and shave soap....I love the smoothness from the DE...but now I lose my favorite shaving soaps and I lost a brush! I have had to forbid her from my bathroom! I would NEVER want her using a straight....because she would want to use mine and then things would get ugly...

Funny stuff! I have shaved my girlfriends bikini area for her in the past with the M3. She says I can do it better than she can. I haven't told her howerver, that the next time, I will be using a straight. LOL Can't wait to see the expression on her face. All she needs to know is that I will not do anything to hurt that region of her body. No No No... never! Not about to mess up a good thing!

Hehehehe... lol

I hear ya. But, I just have to try.

I tried to get mine to let me do her legs, and all I got was the death-stare

She does well enough with her razor though that it's not a big deal. A good shave for her stays smooth for at least 3 days and doesn't start to get actually fuzzy for about a week-ish. Compare that to my being prickly almost in a day!

This is the reason that I like 5/8 or 6/8
But with 12/8........

Yannis already did that with a straight in another thread he said.

I have. I bought a 6/8 with pink and white scales. It looks like Pepto Bismol and I don't know if it's worth salvaging but it's probably good for restoration practice.
