Review (4/5): Women can use this- and use the same blade for one year!
I am a women that uses this razor with the same blade for one year. This is the best razor I have found for armpits and leg hair. After I use it, I rinse it out and take it out of the shower. I shake it out and rub it on a towel *with the blades* to dry out the blades. Leaving water on the blades is what reduces the sharpness. After the blades are completely dry, I run the blades over my forearm *with the blades* to sharpen them with my own skin. It is important to note not to go against the blades on your towel and arm or you will cut the fibers/hair. I was able to use one blade for a year last year using this technique. Better for the earth. :)
