Yes, many women have switched to a Rockwell safety razor. There is a slight learning curve when switching from traditional cartridge razors but this is outweighed by the benefits. Rockwell is the only safety razor that provides a beginner setting that makes it impossible to cut yourself. 

We recommend using the mildest beginner settings (R1-R3) when starting out and working your way up to more aggressive settings if you desire. 

Always prep your skin and use some form of shaving cream, gel, or lotion. Use small strokes against the grain of your hair instead of shaving from ankle to knee in one stroke.
