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?
Maybe, maybe not. Like many things in life it’s a YMMV. To be honest, I have tried it with my trusty old Gillette Slim Adjustable set a 2. It worked fine and I consider it no more dangerous than a 12 bladed monstrosity, but manscaping down there is not really my bag. But I do shave my head with either that Slim or a GEM Featherweight single edge razor. Again-- YMMV
