When I started shaving my face about a year ago, I decided to treat myself and get a safety razor, blades, soap and brush setup.
Just yesterday I used one of those disposable three blade jobbies for the first time since I was 12, and… It was faster, easier, more comfortable, and a way better shave.
Anyone have experience with this? Was I taken in by GQ style nostalgia bait, or will I really get better results from a safety razor with practice?


I’ve never used those, but I have been using this thing daily for like 2 years. If any of my hair grows past stubble, I just clean that up with a philips oneblade. You have to clean it out every so often. The hair gets trapped on the inside by design, so you have to empty it. I use alcohol wipes to clean the metal parts. Don’t use alcohol on the plastic. A single C battery keeps it going for a long time, I might need to buy a new one soon or something, but it still works pretty well.
I bought one of these based on ur post! I like it, although it feels fragile lol
I’m still trying to figure out the safety razor but so far I like this a lot as an option to have on hand
Iʻm so glad! Iʻve actually been using mine for several years. I clean it regularly and change the batteries, but it still works pretty great!
