I know they look a bit like a medieval weapon and it can therefore be a bit scary starting to use one. But when you do, you will not look back and wish you'd done it sooner! Here are 6 reasons why eco-friendly safety razors are worth a try!
A safety razor is designed to last a lifetime providing you look after it, so once you've bought the initial razor, you should never have to buy another razor again! A new blade costs around £0.80 which is a lot cheaper than having to buy a complete new disposable razor every few months.
No plastic in sight! Just pop your used blades into a blade tin and ship them off to your local recycling centre.
With these eco-friendly safety razors, you’ll be able to shave any area with ease. Whether that's your legs, face, underarms or elsewhere. No more unwanted stubble!
I actually find I get a smoother shave with my metal safety razor than I used to with a Venus razor! And because there is only one blade, it will generally cut the hair in one pass, without the need for a second pass of the blade meaning a gentler shave.
There is such a massive range of safety razors available now - you can literally find one in all shapes, sizes, colours and materials so there is one to suit everyone!
The blades in eco-friendly safety razors tend to need changing every 30 or so shaves. So how long a blade lasts will depend on how often you shave. But in comparison, Gillette recommend changing a normal razor blade every 7-14 shaves.
