FAQs
What makes this razor 'eco-friendly'?
This razor is eco-friendly because it is designed for reuse, significantly reducing the plastic waste generated by disposable razors. The packaging is also made from recyclable materials.
How often should I replace the blade?
The frequency of blade replacement depends on your hair type, shaving frequency, and technique. On average, a blade can last between 5-10 shaves. You'll know it's time to change when the shave feels less smooth or requires more passes.
Is this razor suitable for beginners?
Yes, it is suitable for beginners, but it may require a brief adjustment period. We recommend watching tutorials on proper safety razor technique and starting with light pressure.
What material is the razor made of?
The razor is constructed from durable zinc alloy and stainless steel.
How do I safely dispose of used blades?
Used blades are sharp. It is recommended to use a dedicated blade bank or wrap the used blade in paper before disposing of it in a puncture-resistant container to prevent injury.
What is the weight of the razor?
The razor weighs approximately 94 grams, providing a comfortable and balanced feel during use.
Does this razor come assembled?
The razor comes with the head and handle separate for safe shipping. You will need to assemble it by screwing the head onto the handle before its first use.
Troubleshooting
Razor is not shaving closely
Ensure the blade is properly aligned and securely tightened. Check if the blade is dull and needs replacement. Review your shaving angle and pressure; a lighter touch and a steeper angle are often recommended for safety razors.
Difficulty unscrewing or screwing the head
Ensure there is no soap residue or debris preventing smooth operation. Try rinsing the head and handle thoroughly. If the issue persists, check for any damage to the threads.
Skin irritation or cuts
This often occurs due to improper technique. Ensure you are using a sharp blade, shaving with the grain (initially), using light pressure, and allowing the razor's weight to do the work. Use a pre-shave oil or cream and a good aftershave.
Blade seems loose
Double-check that the head is fully screwed onto the handle. Ensure the blade is seated correctly on the alignment pins before tightening the head.
