Double Edge Safety Razor

This is my first time trying a safety razor but I'm already converted!! It was a bit tricky to figure it out but after a minute I figured it out and it works amazingly!!

I was very unsure about switching because I am clumsy and I am really scared of cutting myself. I read a bunch of reviews and instruction videos before settling on this simple one with a butterfly opening so it's easier for a beginner like me. I was pleasantly surprised! I was extra careful because I didn't want to nick myself, so the first shave did take a while. But I did not cut myself, and I got a pretty close shave! It's sharper and more precise than the traditional razor. I really really love it and I am so glad I switched! Plus it feels really good knowing when I want to get rid of the blade, it can be recycled. If you are wondering about how to recycle, you can check with your local recycling center or look up Albatross blade recycling for instructions on how to safely pack and mail your used blade to be recycled. I hope the experience would go more smoothly with this razor once I have more practice, but for now, I am happy and encourage everyone to give this a try :)

Happy with my purchase. Takes some getting used to shaving at a different angle. But its worth it because it’s not wasteful. I haven’t gotten a super close shave with it on my legs, but I did on my face. I also noticed an exciting added benefit- it works like a derma planer shaver! My skin feels brand new & so soft. 🎉 I’m sure I will figure out how to get a closer shave with more practice. :)

This razor is a great option for those looking to reduce waste. I have used safety razors for many years and went for this one after my older $50 one broke. This is less expensive, of similar quality, and is the first one that opens with the butterfly opening like this. I really love this feature because it is a lot safer to insert the blade.

100% in love.
Very well made with a great price.
Plus, your doing good to the planet
