Possible convert to wetshaving. the GF!

[Labowski]

So the GF and I were talking about my "hobby" and she seems to have really taken a liking and interest in it.

Direct quote form a recent conversation: "After describing how it lathers, your cream might get confiscated... I'll need to buy one of those brushes though."

We were talking about TOBS Rose cream in particular. Anyway, not much else to say, just thought I'd share.

Any of you guys get your significant other to convert?

Congrats on getting the GF to take an interest. Encourage her along, its a better way to shave for sure.

We're discusing brushes. I'm thinking something on the bigger side since it'll be used to cover more surface area than a face and neck.

Get her a Gillette Lady, or a Schick Krona (I've owned both, handles are similar in length). If she would like to use a DE razor, that is. If not, I think using real shaving cream alone instead of canned goo will up her shaving experience

I don't share this hobby with my wife. She has respect for it though.

Yeah, she definitely wants to give DE shaving a try. I'll have her take a look at the razors you suggested. Thank you for the input!

Both my daughters, and my wife, are using Lady Schick injectors.

How do they like using those? I assume they all give positive reviews since you say they're currently using those.

Congratulations! Haven't converted mine, yet.

Thank you! Have you offered to shave her legs for her? That's how I got mine interested. She really likes the thick and cushiony lather adn the variety of scents as well.

I think we're going to go with a Merkur 23C for her. Now, a brush...

I bought my wife a semogue 2000, a lady Gillette, and tobs rose. She uses feather blades. She has complained a little about the time involved; but really likes how smooth her legs are now. I do too!

My wife uses a parker 29l and a vdh boar brush.
