disclaimer, I am only a few months into wet shaving, and have to admit I have it lucky, as my facial hair is very thin and weak, and I almost have to use no technique at all to get a good shave.

so here is my story, several weeks ago my wife let me shave her legs with a straight, and it was flawless. I did it on the couch while watching TV, >> Hot rag with a bowl of hot water, and whatever cheap antique shave puck I have been using that came from a flea market along with a older badger brush with a plastic handle that I also got from the same.

But two nights ago she wanted me to give it a go again. This time I didn't do so well, I nicked her leg right below her knee, I think my shave cream had begun to dry out, as the blade was "hopping" after convincing her I could continue, I did it again on the same leg above her ankle right on the shin. this time it was a very deep slice. she is still bleeding a bit today. I think I had the same problem, I let it dry out.

I think I will definitely have to read through the ladies forum and find out what shave soap and prep is better for women's legs. Today is my first time to even read from the ladies forum.
That is IF she ever lets me do it again. Wish me luck...
