Is there any alternative to foam shaving not electric?


my husband is an alzheimer patient and refuses to be shaved with electric or razor. any alternatives

Safety razor and good ole fashion soap, someone with a steady hand. Also someone he can trust and when it hits that he knows.

No, and Alzheimer patients can be very violent if they really don't want something done. What I would do is let it grow, it will itch like crazy I'm sure, and he will probably then ask to be shaved. If not you may just have to let him grow a beard until he becomes more manageable.

I use a razor and found that the liquid hand soap works the best for me !

Plucking (tweezing), Shaving, Depilatory creams and Waxing are temporary hair removal methods.
