Are safety razors better for your skin?

The Benefits of Safety Razors:

1. Reduced Irritation: Safety razors use a single, precise blade that glides smoothly, lowering irritation, razor burn, and ingrown hairs common with multi-blade razors.

2. Less Pressure, Less Damage: The sharp blade requires less pressure, minimizing micro-cuts and redness during shaving.

3. Avoiding Over-Shaving: Safety razors offer better visibility, preventing over-shaving that can cause irritation.

4. Minimal Contact Points: Unlike multi-blade razors, safety razors have one blade, decreasing ingrown hair risks.

5. Customizable Experience: Choose blades based on skin type and hair texture for a personalized shave.

6. Better Hygiene: Easier to clean than cartridge razors, safety razors promote healthier skin.

In summary, safety razors prioritize your skin's well-being. With reduced irritation, precise shaving, and personalization, they offer a gentler grooming option.

Just had my first safety razor shave last night, (i'm moderately hairy, 18 y/o)
In my opinion it's a lot more tricky or, difficult to use than the store bought razors. My face is usually full of red bumps one day after shaving, but today my face is pretty smooth, just one thing is i think i didn't shave properly so some spots of my face feel burnt, it's a really sensitive razor i should warn

Edit: I've been using a safety razor for 9 months. In my opinion it's a must-have hygiene product,
The blades also run out soo slowly, even though i use one blade for like 2-3 shaves.
For me, shaving with a standard shaving cream and then putting on shaving alcohol-cologne on my face works the best, i no longer have red bumps, rarely just some cuts that heal in 3 days

I switched to using a double edge safety razor almost a year ago and I’ve never looked back I will never use a cartridge razor again they suck and are bad for your skin.

When u shave your beard dose your beard grow up back faster ?

Short and to the point. That's how I like it!

I didn't really suffer from ingrown hairs, but the comfort alone is worth it

[antona.]

Thank you so much for the explanation, now I know I did the right thing by recently switching to classic safety razor, after 25 years of shaving with cartridges! I already know classic safety razor is doing a way better job!

Hi guys just done my 1st safety razor shave today 😎 Take a look

[mwhite]

Meh. Your mileage will vary. For me, . personally, this is utterly and entirely untrue. I suffer far worse razor burn from safety razors than from a simple, inexpensive double-bladed disposable. And yes, I'm using pre-shave oils, proper brush technique and the rest of it. Tried many times over the years with different razors, blades, soaps, oils, etc and it just never goes well. I've finally thrown in the towel and realized it's just not for me.

I just switched to a double edged razor. Never again will i use a cartrige type

[chitan]

Just got my first safety razor today. Before I just avoided doing close shaves because of how painful it was (using a 4-blade Harry's razor), and just used an electric shaver to get what I could off. I've never had such a good shave in my life. If a cheap 20 dollar safety razor (Van Der Hagen razor) can give such a good shave, just imagine a higher end razor...

How good is King C. Gillette double edge safety razor? Can i get closer shave than cartridge razors?

[Aleks]

i never liked cartidge razors. i would have 4-5 different handles because in my local store the fitting cartidge would get discontinued or replaced so i would have to buy new shitty handles+carrtidges everytime i would like to get the sharp blade... and everytime i would have a longer beard like 3-5mm i would have to trimm it down with electric clippers without guard in order to get less tugging and it still failed. it was a mess. it wasn't smooth and i would only use it once before becomes extremly dull and my skin was always irritated.. Have been using the saftey razor for 2 years now and the quality of a shave can't even compare to the stupid cartidge shave. IDK how Saftey razors and their superiority aren't the standard nor widely known to EVERYONE...

[mrtiger]

Yeah your right 👍👍👍👍 it happenend to me

[nathancruz]

Should I shave 🪒 my face against the grain or with the grain of the first shave or second pass from the safety razor?

[TheTechCguy]

I can attest to this. I still absolutely abhor cartridge razors. They pull a lot more on hair than safety or straight razors, even with cream. Unless I have no choice, I won’t ever use another cartridge razor again. Especially those s***ty two bladed BIC ones. 💯

[joseesparza]

I switched to a safety razor a few months ago. I camt fathom thy cartridge razors even exist.

Шуруповерты. И комуляторы к ним. .кому на да рамазан найдёт запчасти тоже . И сеялки привезу чопику дорогу показать надобудет только

[adamoneale]

I was a big fan of safety razors. Still use them for a quick shave, but even they don't compare to a straight razor. Especially since I now wear a beard, you just can't get the lines and edges so crisp with a safety razor as you can with a straight razor.

Why am I watching this? I haven’t shaved since before Covid 😂
