    Default Shaving legs and the special area

    I saw this was asked but no real answers given. I just started with the straight edge and love it. Any advice on shaving my legs and man parts?
    I'm a swimmer so let's get that out of the way,
    Thanks in advance

    I've asked the same questions a number of times (ok, to be honest, I've viewed a number of other's posts who have asked that question) and received no answers...at least no answers that didn't have the intention of harassment...lol. I'm an avid biker and tri-athlete and I shave twice a week. I'm with Steveorocks on this one... Anyone have any legitimate answers?!?

    I imagine it could be done, though I haven't tried.

    I'd take it slow. For a looooong time.

    Serious answers ???

    OK, check out the ladies forum for hints on shaving legs, it ain't that hard just takes time...

    Manscaping, with a Straight Razor IMHO belongs on the Darwin Awards Forum not this one, but I supposed if you took your time and you were really good you could do it... Just seems more like bravado then an efficient way of trimming...

    I shave my wife's legs with both my straight and DE. The DE is a little easier, but both can be done. Same as the face, the knee and thighs require stretching so the skin doesn't cause the razor to jump. I've found that a traditional 2-pass (WTG, ATF) is mightily sufficient. Again, I'd say spring for the DE first, then once you get the growth patterns and stretching down, attempt the straight. Haven't really run into many, if any, clogging issues with the DE.

    Also, she loves the attention.

    When it comes to manscaping with a straight razor the only safe way I can think of reminds me of an amish beard. That is top lip shaved but hair on the chin left intact.

    I'd seriously advise keeping the razor as far from the "Old Boy" as possible.
