Abstract
proprioceptive shaver for shaving/grooming intimate areas. The proprioceptive shaver for shaving one or more portions of a body comprises a main body (12) having a first end and a second opposing end, arranged in a perpendicular orientation relative to a user engagement member (18). The user engagement member (18) comprises a first opening constructed and arranged to receive a first finger of a user’s hand and a second opening constructed and arranged to receive a second finger. The first opening has a center axis that is parallel to a longitudinal axis of said main body (12). The second opening having a center that is parallel to said main body (12) longitudinal axis. A shaving assembly comprises a razor head (24) having a non-cutting surface and an opposing cutting surface. The non-cutting surface is arranged to engage ends of said first finger and said second finger when said fingers are in said openings thereby providing points of contact with said user’s hand. Extending from said user engagement member (18), is a leverage bar (74) for engaging said user’s hand when said fingers are in said openings thereby providing multiple points of contact with said user’s hand to improve maneuverability.
