How do you use a Safety Razor?

Lisa Janssens

With a Safety Razor, you'll have a life partner, and that statement is a literal one. You only need to replace the blades over time; you can enjoy the handle and head for a lifetime. It's worth discovering a Safety Razor...

Sustainability mode: ON!

Taking small steps together, we're combating the overwhelming throwaway society. Searching for sustainable alternatives to single-use products, we're trying to be more mindful of what we use in our daily lives. With small and large changes, we're adapting our lifestyle. An example of such a small change, but with a big impact, is our beloved Safety Razor. It's made entirely without plastic.

Okay, but why "Safety" Razor then?

Many people get red bumps, also known as "shaving bumps," from hair removal. They occur when blades are dull, dirty, or simply not properly made. Our razor has a single blade with a special intermediate piece for safety! This Safety Razor ensures that bumps are significantly reduced, so you don't have to worry about inflammation or itching.

Fantastic result

You might need to adjust your familiar shaving technique with this razor, but it's a small effort for a big result. Proper use is essential! Here are a few instructions:

1. Start with the safety razor perpendicular to your skin. The handle of your safety razor is horizontal.

2. Afterwards, place the razor at a 30 ° angle.

3. Slide slowly with short strokes to remove hair.

Attention!

  • Don't make the angle greater than 30°, as this increases the risk of irritation. So, if the handle is almost vertical, the angle is already a bit too wide.
  • Don't apply pressure to your skin with your Safety Razor; the blade does the work. Doing so increases the risk of cutting yourself.
  • According to our partners, the blade should be replaced every six shaves. However, many users say it's still sharp and can be used optimally. This gives you a guideline, but you can still make your own decision.

How do you replace the blade on your Safety Razor?

By turning the handle, you can release the attachment and the safety catch. This allows you to remove the blade and easily replace it. Then, simply place the safety catch back on top of the blade and attachment and tighten everything with the handle. Easy peasy!

    Extra good with the right care

    Perhaps you still use shaving foam or have already switched to shaving soap? We can certainly tell you that our soap-free Shaving Bar is the perfect complement to the Safety Razor. Its convenient shape and caring ingredients ensure you can shave easily and safely wherever you want.
