Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Thanks Jane, I had ask for one, but now I'm glad Santa didn't bring it. Donna > To all, > > Don't make the mistake that I did.

I now have a burn under my arm and I really cried with this. didn't want to laugh but he could not help it. He had to blow on my underarm until the medication started to work.

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2004 Report Share Posted January 14, 2004 Jane Anne: I am glad to hear your armpits are recovering. I could just feel that! One time I had just shaved my armpits, then put on roll-on deodorant. That's a sensation that one notices!!!! Up here in North Iowa, I don't shave my legs in the wintertime. The braids help keep me warm. (grin) But, I can't seen going without shaving the arm pits, and I have a very nice, easy to hold women's shaver that works well, and can't cut me. Right now I can't remember the brand. Good luck, and be careful! Laurel Shaving legs > > > To all, > > Don't make the mistake that I did.

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2004 Report Share Posted January 14, 2004 well now, lets keep that sandpaper off of us, ladies. there really is a sandpaper type product out there called " hairOff mitten " . it acutally works quite well....... also there is a good electric (battery operated) shaver that you can use in or out of the shower. so there, dale, now you, too, can return to shaving your legs!

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2004 Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 I've never see one with a long handle. The one that I found just fits in the palm of my hand. It's not real big.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2004 Report Share Posted January 17, 2004 Jane I ask my assistive living person about that problem too. She told me to use tape and a dowel, but I swithced to Nair and electric razor. Donna > I've never see one with a long handle. The one that I found just fits in the palm of my hand.
