Review (5/5): Blown away by the quality of this double edge safety razor! Better than brand name!
My husband uses this kind of razor because he's committed to sustainability and doesn't like the disposable ones. For a long time he has had a shorter travel double edge safety razor from a brand name that's pretty well rated. I suggested that we get him a new razor of this type because he only has the one, which he kept leaving at his family's, and then his beard would grow out for a week! Easier just to get a new one and we were curious to try this non travel one and see if it stacked up.
The rose gold color is really pretty in my opinion and really stands out. It doesn't look feminine or anything, just almost like a light copper. It has the same kind of grip banding on the handle that we've seen on other razors but it's really well done. It doesn't look shoddy or imperfect and has a nice hefty feel to it.
We didn't want to use the included razors so we can't comment on that but my husband was blown away by how much better this razor was! We're not sure what it is exactly since he doesn't have a lot of experience with different kinds versus the one he's been using for years. He was really surprised how much of a difference it made in being able to shave more quickly like those pros on Youtube.
He's still perfecting his shave technique double edged safety razors and we're watching Youtube channels to learn more techniques but the brand apparently makes a huge difference. This is a really surprisingly high quality razor given the quality, brand, and price.
The only thing we noticed is that for some reason small hairs would build up under that razor more versus his old one but we're still figuring it out and the ease of use is worth it for now.
