    Read some posts raving about this over the weekend so gave it a go, and can recommend it - no nicks, no redness, really close shave, and skin feels smooth afterwards. As someone who usually ends up red and bleeding it's a good find.

    Shaving cream/lotion/gel (that does not foam) also do a good job. Something like the Zihr cream or gel are good.

      I use a sharp rock! It feels really comfy.

          Actually, I use disposable razor blades, but when I'm finished you can't tell that I didn't use a rock, so why deny it, especially if it will get me man points. :-)

                    Being the type of person who has to do a full head shave(except my eybrows), and generally looking like I've attacked myself with a cheese grater, I might have to give this a go. Although I have found Maco Root Shave Creme from the Body Shop does the trick too...

                                  Ooh, last time I did that I was in a hurry. If that doesn't tell you enough: I pressed to hard, and ended up peeling a small slice of skin off.
