The straight razor handle design poses the same access challenges as the Venus. Not quite as heavy as the Venus metal handle, but love the medium weight of this razor for handling as well as the matte rubber wrapped all the way around the handle for a good grip. so I really value the travel size (that also works with any Venus razor head!).Īvailable everywhere (read: most grocery and drug stores) as well as subscriptions now?, quality razor blades, comfortable shave experience, travel handle / case available CONSĮxpense, razors dull quickly, and moisture strips dry out rapidly I know that putting my daily razor in a Ziplock bag isn’t the end of the world, but the moisture strip sticks and dries to the inside of the bag, the razor isn’t protected, etc. I love having a little clamshell case and mini razor handle to take with me for travel. I never enjoyed having to pay $20+ for a pack of 4 razors (especially with how quickly I would have to replace them!), but I did it because I thought what I was using was the best available option. One of the great things about Gillette razors is that (a) all of their razor heads can be used on any of their handles, so you can plug-and-play with whichever kind works best for you, and (b) their razors are available almost EVERYWHERE (big box stores like Wal-Mart / Target, pharmacies, even some deluxe gas stations) and are now offered in online mailing subscription form as well (obviously to compete with the new brands). The Venus handle model that I have has a flexible head on it, but I still manage to cut myself on the backs of my knees somehow? I also noticed that the moisture strip on the Venus Extra Smooth heads dry up rapidly after the first shave so they’re less comfortable and, well, smooth.

If your razor blade has obvious signs of damage, like dents or jagged edges, you’ll want to replace it right away.I love the metal handle with rubber grip on the underside the weight is great and makes my shave feel… sturdier(?). Shaving with a damaged blade is a cut waiting to happen. That said, if your razor has sat in a wet environment long enough to rust, it could very well have bacteria on it that could cause infection if introduced into your body while shaving. This type of bacteria lives in organic matter, like dead leaves and soil. Rust itself doesn’t cause tetanus - bacteria called Clostridium tetani does. If you see rust, it’s definitely time to replace your razor blade.Ĭontrary to popular belief, a rusty razor won’t give you tetanus, even if you cut yourself with it. If you notice redness, irritation, and bumps on your skin after shaving, it’s time to change your blade. That goes for the usuals, like the face and legs, to the less-discussed spots like the balls and butt. Razor burn and bumps can happen on any part of the body you shave. These happen when a hair grows into your skin after shaving or another method of hair removal. ![]() Shaving with a dull or damaged razor blade can irritate your skin, causing razor burn and upping the risk of ingrown hairs or “razor bumps.” With a dull blade, your skin won’t feel as smooth and you may be able to feel and see the stubble it leaves behind. You won’t get as close a shaveĪ clean, close shave leaves your skin feeling baby-smooth, even if you have hair that’s thicker and coarse AF. Instead, you’ll begin to feel it dragging along your skin, even tugging at times. You know how a fresh-from-the-pack blade glides over your skin with ease? That’s the feel of a sharp blade effortlessly cutting through hair.Īs the blade begins to dull, the razor won’t cut through your hair as easily. Your razor doesn’t ‘glide’ over your skin anymore How do you know when it’s time to change the blade?Įven if you lose track of the days or the number of shaves, some telltale signs can help you recognize when a blade change is in order. ![]() ![]() ![]() Get everything placed time to take a step back refer to the photos and make any last adjustments or additions before priming out the entire diorama.

The second battle was the bloodiest battle of the entire Iraq War, and is notable for being the first major engagement of the Iraq War fought solely against insurgents rather than the forces of the former Ba'athist Iraqi government, which was deposed in 2003. When coalition forces fought into the center of the city, the Iraqi government requested that the city's control be transferred to an Iraqi-run local security force, which then began stockpiling weapons and building complex defenses across the city through mid-2004.

You can’t turn on your TV/Roku/cut-cord viewing device without bumping into spaceships, alien invasion and wonky sci-fi food-for-thought. Today, there’s an entire cable network devoted to this kind of programming.
