As a college RA who wetshaves, I had at idea for a program where I would give away DE kits and teach my residents how to shave. I started a thread it the BST and received generous donations. As a result, I was able to put together and give out six complete DE and SE kits.

The program ran as follows. I got a number of residents together and gave a brief overview of wetshaving. I showed them both straight and DE kits, explained the things in common and the differences. I discussed shaving prep, lather development, shaving technique, and the deprep.

I then gave out kits to the first residents who signed up, and did a demo shave. I had wanted to shave with a DE to show them technique that they could apply, but they were more interested in seeing me shave with a straight. Since I prefer straights, I was happy to oblige. After I shaved, one of the residents volunteered to shave himself as I watched and commented.

I'd say the program was a success, thanks to the generous contributions of members here and over at B&B. If there are other forum members who also work in ResLife, this would be a great program to try out.
