Saftey Razors - Shave with cheap razor blades
A Safety Razor uses double-edged razor blades for a smooth shave, is gentle on the skin and economical to use.
Thanks to modern developments in Double Edged razor blades, a safety razor can shave much more smoothly with a single blade than the standard Gillette with 3, 4 or even 5 blades. Because only one blade cuts the hairs off the skin, this also causes less irritation.
Why use a Safety Razor?
More and more men are switching to shaving with a safety razor for the following reasons:
- Shave closer - double-sided razor blades are sharper and shave smoother than modern multi-blade cartridges.
- Less irritation and ingrown hairs - With a safety razor you only use 1 blade to remove the hairs, unlike the popular blades that require 3 or more blades for a close shave. The more blades, the greater the deposit on your skin, and the greater the chance of irritation and ingrown hairs.
- Cheap razor blades - Double Edged razor blades are available from € 0.15 each. This is a fraction of the price you normally pay for razor blades.
Shave with a safety razor
A safety razor is very easy to use, but it can take a few weeks to get used to it. The technique for shaving with a Safety Razor differs from that with a plastic razor such as a Gillette Mach3 or Fusion. Because the blade does not automatically follow the contours of the skin with a scraper, you will have to learn to always keep the blade at the right angle.
With a safety razor, the blade is always visible, so you can see exactly what you are doing. The idea is to use the blade as a sickle to cut off the beard hairs. You always keep the blade at an angle of about 30 ° to the skin. Most safety razors are designed in such a way that when you keep the handle almost perpendicular to the skin, the blade always has the correct angle of almost 30 °.
Watch how your beard's hair grows, and always shave in the direction of beard growth. If you shave against the hairs, you increase the chance of ingrown hairs and irritation after shaving.
Shaving in different "passes"
With a safety razor you only shave in places where shaving soap is. If you have shaved an area and the shaving soap is gone, it is better to rinse the face with warm water and start over to achieve a smoother result. 1 such a shave is called a "Pass". After each pass, apply shaving soap and start shaving again. You usually achieve a super close shave in 2 or 3 passes.
Open or closed comb?
A Safety Razor with closed comb is perfect for both beginners and experienced users. It is the razor best suited for regular, daily use.
An open comb safety razor is generally slightly more aggressive than a closed comb razor. An advantage of the open comb razor is that you need fewer "passes" for a close shave. The open comb construction is less likely to become clogged with hairs etc.
Which Safety Razor Is Best For You?
There are so many safety razors to choose from that it is almost impossible to buy the right razor right away. Rely on your feeling. What do you like? How much money do you want to spend? These are the most important points to look out for in the beginning. Once you have experience in shaving with a scraper, you know where your personal need lies.
