Question for the she-p users...

is this cap something extra I need to purchase, there is an orange plug and cap in the pack but they don't seem to fit anything.

I haven't found the orange plug useful.

Yeah, the Smith & Nephew pads -- maybe I have unusually sensitive skin, but that stuff really stings!

I find that if I do more than a couple of wipes with Remover, it stings but other than that it is ok. I gave it to my buddy who got a cath stuck on once and he was not a happy camper after that so I think be cautious with it!

Do you think that how you shave could affect skin sensitivity? I use an electric shaver which doesn't cut as close as a razor, so maybe my skin isn't as sensitive?

I haven't found the orange plug useful.

You don't cap your She-P and p-valve after disconnecting them?

I shave with a razor and don't have the issue

i think everyones skin is different. Some women can use the pads just fine, some can't. Some women the Spray sticks like superglue, some it doesn't. Same with Urobond, but more women have reported long day/duration success. Some women can use a razor, others look at a razor and get irritation (if this is the case, check out the body groomer type clippers).

it seems at times there is no 'right' answer, just a lot of different things to try and see what works with your own skin type.

two of the best things we've found for helping with success have already been mentioned...

wash with a good soap before use and let the glue dry longer than you think before application.

I haven't found what it is supposed to fit.

Having just spent about 10 mins looking at all the pieces I now know where they fit

Just need to puchase the plug and cap. Would have been great if these were already in the kit.

it comes down to a price thing. I try my best to keep pricing down despite increases by all my suppliers. some women have stated they didn't really have a big need for them and would have preferred the 'option'. I think this is a case of I can't please all the people all the time (but I do try)

Of course I do, but I have the white cap/plug which work great! I thought they came in the kit? Maybe seperate order? Don't remember.

No problem Laura. Was just thinking about additional shipping costs.

Sounds like everyone has a different set of caps and plugs depending on when they bought their kit. I have the orange plugs as well as the white cap. Just lucky, I guess.

if you are ordering just the cap/plugs (or other single small items) i usually refund part if the shipping if it's dramatically different from 'standard shipping' rate.
