When discussing women shaving, I cannot believe most of you automatically place a woman in a man's position (i.e. shaving facial hair) when the object/target/location of shaving for each sex is completely different. I guess I appreciate the consideration, even if it is misinformed. The wet shaving experience may be luxurious and enjoyable for men, but I would love to have this option for, say, legs. Even if shaving for me is more business than pleasure, I would love to have the option for a close, comfortable shave without all the nightmare side effects that result from using plastic razors, hair removal creams or waxing - youch! Thanks for your website and all the helpful comments here. Good luck in your search of ultimate and exclusive manliness.

I have a question that either you or anyone else could answer. I was wondering if it is considered okay to use gold bond for the nether region in combination with some type of cologne for the neck. The reason why I am asking is because I currently use Degree antiperspirant and gold bond, but I get the feeling from people that I could be doing too much. Also for a little background, I'm going to be starting a new job in an office area. Thanks, Jake Brett and Kate,

I have the luxury of a barber who performs shaves with straight edges and safety razors. I shave with a safety razor at home, so I always get the straight edge. It's $15 for the cheapest shave, but you can pay up to $30 for the full treatment which includes a hand/forearm massage. They're all worth every penny. Add a $13 haircut, and for a minor $28 you can get a very good shave and haircut. I always get both every time I go in, and since I'm a struggling college student, I always get the minimum shave, but it's still a very relaxing experience. If you're ever in Natchitoches, Louisiana come by the City Barber Shop. It's in the barber locator. It is a really manly experience to have a professional shave.

I'll definitely be trying it out later on once I've gotten past the aftermath of the teenage glory years of acne. Unfortunately it's all electric shaving for now. Sounds awesome.
