Review on 🌹 Rose Gold Double Edge Safety Razor for Women - Includes 5 Blades and Delicate Box - Compatible with All Double Edge Razor Blades - Plastic-Free by Caleb Bennett

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Sharp enough to cut but not shave

I've had this razor for 4 or 5 months now. I stopped using it over a month ago. The appeal of this razor was that I wanted to reduce plastic and that seemed like a good idea to me. I've used it all summer. My legs and armpits have never been smooth, I've always had barely noticeable stubble from this razor. Also, in the few months I've been using it, I've cut myself with this thing, more than I've shaved in 25 years. Is it sharp enough to remove bits of skin but not sharp enough to shave my legs clean? I've tried short strokes, light strokes, flat strokes, pressure strokes, slow strokes, fast strokes. None of them shaved my legs clean. I tore out a piece of my ankle that took weeks to heal (the scar is shown as evidence of a battle wound) and my shins and kneecaps are covered in tiny scars. I shaved off part of the mole. I'm not new to shaving. I used to use razors with replaceable blades. I'm amazed by this thing, which is good for the environment, gentle on my body hair, but seems to have a personal vendetta against me. However, it looks very sleek and cool, comes with 5 spare blades and the price is right. That's it.

Pros
  • Suitable for many
Cons
  • Long
