Are your wives/girlfriends as concerned for your mental health regarding angles, pressure, techniques, etc. as my wife is??

Welcome aboard B&B. Hope you enjoy the ride. My wife does not care how I shave just as long as I do not bleed on my clothes or the pillow case. She does, however, appreciate a smooth face.

What I'm trying to do is convince her of why I have entered into such an apparent nightmare and addiction as wet shaving could be for outsiders!!

I had been wet shaving for decades using "all the trimmings" (cream, badger brush, alum...) except a DE razor. And I got some DFS, actually. But one day I saw the light (the rest of it, I mean) and six months later here I am.

Nobody said great things are simple!!

The same! Last week ordered a couple of EJ ASB (aloe vera, sandalwood) plus a puck of shaving soap and when I took them home I found myself telling her: listen, a bargain, a steal, reduced prices, I'm saving money, actually!!! Rolling eyes too... Ha ha ha!
