Shopping for new blades for my old razor I realized that the gel used on the blades could not be vegan. I didn’t want to check online if they were vegan and as I realized that the blades for my old razor cost about the same as a saftey razor + 5 blades, I bought the safety razor.

Like it so far, was a little concerened to cut myself but slow and steady wins the raze (haha, get it…?) It leaves a tiny, tiny stubble, but maybe that is just me getting used to the new razor. What I like is that it is much easier to clean, since you can remove the blade and rinse it off or even disinfect it. Should I disinfect my blade? Dullsters on the internet, what is your wisdom?

    Main thing is to make sure its tight. I generally only have cut myself when I did not have it tight and that mostly happened in the begining before I realized that was what caused me to get cut. I actually use one disposable a year to get it a bit closer for things like job interviews or special occasions. day to day it gets close enough. not smooth as a babys but but visually its fine.
