SWMBO dislikes lady Gillette?

[KeNd0]

I have successfully convinced SWMBO to try using a DE. The first time, I let her use a Black Handled Super which she said she liked. This time I handed her a yellow Lady Gillette in pristine condition I had acquired. Two minutes into her ritual, she calls from the bathroom, hands me the Lady Gillette and demands she get the 'other' one back. I hand her the 'other' one, head to my den, where I load the Lady Gillette up with a twice used Feather from my 38C, and have a fantastic shave.
Apparently, it was not aggressive enough, she prefers the adjustable. Now I have to be sure she doesn`t discover my Fatboy, as with todays prices I couldn`t afford a second one.

Cool. I just posted a thread asking for advice on DEs for women. My wife has started using a brush and soap on her legs. Now she wants to use a DE.

Are there any particular products SWMBO likes?

My wife loves her blue Lady Gillette. She has been using some soap from a local company called So.A.P. (South Austin People) and a cheap boar brush and seems content. I have gotten her to give VDH glycerin a try and she liked it as well.

She started off by trying my '69 SuperSpeed and Schick Krona. When she decided she definitely needed a longer-handled razor, I snagged the Lady for under $13 shipped and she has been thrilled. She says it doesn't clog like cartridges and she ends up smoother for longer. Add that to the savings on blades and it is quite an improvement all around.

SWMBO uses my "spare" British Tech for her legs, she likes the fact it's lightweight. She'll usually use a Derby in it

Husband bought me a Lady Gillette about a week or so ago. I really like it so far. I also have some TOBS avocado cream that I really, really like.

Bought a '66 Lady Gillette for my lady and she loves it. She has put away the Gillette Venus for good.

My lady just recently started using a blue Lady and she loves it. She's using AoS Rose Absolute cream and a VDH Boar. Right now the razor's loaded with a Personna, but I'm looking into some other blades now anyway, so she'll probably end up with whatever I end up with.

There was a Lady Schick and a Personna Flair.

My g/f uses a Lady Gillette I bought her, and her preferred shaving cream is Kiss My Face Key Lime.
