[blparent] shaving legs

[Veronica Smith]

So is the razor soap, really soap and if so how do you hold onto it?

Veronica,
I started shaving my legs in sixth grade. At first my mom showed me how to
use an electric razor but that didn't do the trick; I liked a closer shave,
so I  started using disposable razors. Jolette makes disposable razor soaps,
which are basically little oval soaps with a razor in the middle. You attach
them to a handle that comes in the box. They do a pretty good job and
they're very safe to use in my experience. They're not starter razors with a
single blade, so they do a much better job than those single-bladed ones. I
use those, but I also have regular venus disposables on hand as well,
because I tend to wear those jollette ones down fairly quickly. One tip I'd
like to offer is: 
instead of using shaving cream or soap, I tend to use hair conditioner. 
Just a thin layer of hair conditioner will do; It moisens the hair
follickles and makes the hair easier to remove so you don't have to press
down so hard..  it moisens the skin a bit too, so the skin is nice and soft
after shaving, although that can be achieved by applying a bit of lotion
after  the shower anyway.
