Admittedly, the name sounds intense, but shaving with a safety razor is actually a really fine thing. Using the safety razor is more practical than you might think.

To use a safety razor correctly, you only need a bit of finesse and some practice. You’ll find the most important tips in this article.

What is a Safety Razor?

A safety razor is a razor for wet shaving. Its blades are replaceable. Unlike disposable or plastic razors, the entire razor is not discarded after a while, only the blades.

Therefore, the safety razor can be considered a sustainable razor. We have some truly high-quality models of a safety razor in our shaving products, which we have been using ourselves for many years.

The way a safety razor works is not significantly different from that of conventional disposable razors.
We’ll show you how it’s done.

Using a Safety Razor Properly: A Guide

Initially, using a safety razor might feel a bit unfamiliar. You need to be more careful than with a disposable razor to avoid injury.

We’ve prepared a small safety razor tutorial for you.

Preparation

Good preparation is key. Three steps matter:

  1. Wash your face - clean your face with a mild cleansing product to remove dirt and oil residues from your skin.

    These residues would dampen your shaving result and clog the blades.

  2. Lather shaving soap - take your time with this. We recommend a high-quality product that lathers evenly.

    Our personal favorite is the shaving soap because it is free from synthetic ingredients and provides a good lathering result.

  3. Apply shaving soap - make sure to apply the shaving soap or the resulting lather evenly on all areas to be shaved. And generously!

    Only where there is sufficient lather can the razor glide optimally.

    Shaving with the Safety Razor

    Only start shaving once the shaving foam is evenly applied to your face, otherwise, there is a risk of injury.

    Ensure that the blade is really sharp, otherwise, it might irritate your skin.

    The angle at which you hold the safety razor is important. You should always hold the razor at a 30-degree angle to your skin. Otherwise, the technique with the safety razor is the same as with other wet razors. Glide the razor gently and without pressure over your skin, as applying too much pressure might cause cuts.

    Razor Shaving Beard Safety Razor

    Here’s a step-by-step guide for better clarity:

    1. Position the safety razor at a 30-degree angle to your skin.

    2. Stretch your skin with your free hand.

    3. Glide without pressure in the direction of hair growth over your skin.

    4. Rinse the razor with clean water after each stroke to avoid blade clogging.

    5. For a smoother result, use the safety razor against the grain.

    Post-Shave Care

    Post-shave care is almost as important as the shave itself.

    Rinse off foam residues and small hairs with cold water (this also closes your pores) and pat yourself dry with a clean towel. Here is our shaving towel.

    Then apply the After Shave Balm. This disinfects your skin. We personally prefer using the alum stone – it’s a natural product capable of soothing minor cuts and stopping bleeding. That’s why we also offer it in our range.

    Expert Tip: Afterwards, use a care lotion to moisturize your skin.

    Frequently Asked Questions About Using and Caring for a Safety Razor

    Is a safety razor better for the skin?

    Many razors have three, four, or more blades that pass over your skin. The safety razor uses just one blade, which is less taxing on your skin.

    How often should you change the blades?

    The frequency of blade changes with a safety razor depends somewhat on how often you shave. Typically, you should change the blade every five to ten shaves, or at least every two weeks, to ensure a hygienic shave.

    Feel free to check out this article: How often to change razor blades?

    How dangerous is a safety razor?

    The risk of injury is slightly higher with a safety razor compared to conventional razors. It takes a bit of practice, but once mastered, the razor is very reliable.

    Always remember: This is a safety razor. Serious injuries are not likely to occur.

      Proper Storage?

      The proper storage of the safety razor is in a dry place. We recommend letting it dry thoroughly after shaving and then storing it in a suitable case. It should not be left in the shower, or in a damp environment, for too long.

      How to Care for the Safety Razor?

      After shaving, you should open the razor’s blade holder and remove the blade to thoroughly clean the area between the head and the blade. Simply rinse the safety razor with water and let it dry afterwards.
