don't fall for it, everything you save on barber visits you spend on razors
Don't believe this guy, he is a barber!!!
I know at least one person who thought about getting it lasered
i spend €8 a year on razors, how many barber visits is that?
what do you use?
Buy a DE safety razor. The initial razor isn’t as cheap as some other options but blades are dirt cheap. The standard recommendation for a safety razor is the Merkur 34C, though I’ve never used it. I’m currently using the Henson AL13 and it’s fantastic, plus it’s made in Canada which was the main selling point for me. My wife loves the AL13 too, she has super sensitive skin plus a lot of skin issues and she hasn’t had any problems shaving with it, where she would normally have burning and itching for days. It’s not on the cheaper end but also not luxury prices either.
I love my Henson also.
I'm super lazy and don't use shaving cream or oil. But I can easily shave after showering with just water.
I had a one blade, and it worked great if you did the whole nine yards, but it sucked if you dont use shaving cream.
The Henson works better with less effort than even a 5 blade imo
I do the same, just water. No issues from me, best razor I’ve ever owned.
That's what I have. I just get irritation using it, likely a skill issue, but I do have sensitive skin.
While it's possible you just need cosmetics for sensitive skin here are some things you can keep in mind.
You don't need to use force when shaving. It can just from its weight. I found myself subconsciously using force from my time with a 5 blade Razer.
I also clean the Razer after each use. I remove the blade and clean the blade and parts with soapy water. (Mainly because I have OCD over things being clean, but it definitely helps with pimples cause from old skin oils being on the blade and Razer guard).
safety razor, i buy a hundred pack of blades every year
