Safety Razors for Slyettes! - PINK! :D

[gutsygirl]

I don't know if there are any other slyettes out there planning to take the DE plunge like I am, but I thought I would just drop a few interesting safety razors your way in case you were looking into it.  I categorized them by WEIGHT.  First bunch are Bakelite (or something similar to it) and/or plastic.  These tend to also be very cost-effective as a first-purchase DE razor.  In the second bunch I posted just a few because everyone is going to have their preferences.  So I went ahead and just picked a few that were metal and heavier but could pass off as having feminine appeal aesthetically so your girlfriends didn't freak out immediately thinking you had a guy with you last night when they saw your DE next to the sink!    See?  I got yer back! 

I have no authority when it comes to function and quality of these things, so if you're looking for the right lady-tool to use and you have specific functions you want/don't want, ask the guys for more info!

Merkur 45 in Bakelite (also lightweight like a Weishi)  (I hear the Merkur 45 isn't fussy about blades, is fairly mild in agressiveness, and it's about 0.5 ounces in weight.  Price = $20-$30 USD)
