Calling all women.

[EverythingButt]

Being relatively new myself to traditional shaving, I have several questions about shaving legs...women legs...

I'm thinking about buying brushes for presents. I'm assuming most women like to keep their shaving stuff in the shower, so I wonder if the B&B crew can share their opinion or advice on these questions.

1. What is the best handle material? I assume it shouldn't be wood.
2. What is the best handle shape? Longer the better?
3. What is the best brush material? Synthetic or Natural?
4. 30mm knot size adequate?
5. Bowl lathering the best?
6. Shave cream or soap?

Please feel free to share your input and recommendations especially with V Day coming up. Thanks a lot for looking.

I would avoid keeping traditional shaving gear in the shower. I know ladies like to do it, but proper shaving stuff (like natural hair brushes, plated razors, etc.) need to dry out properly between uses. They are not likely to if kept in the shower.

Apart from that, bowl lather and cream would be my recommendations.
