What should you pay attention to when purchasing a safety razor?
Safety razors with a closed comb are the most common razors. Suitable for beginners and shaving light to normal beard growth. Also suitable for sensitive skin. Razors with an open comb shave a bit more directly or 'aggressively'. These are suitable for experienced shavers and shaving normal to heavy (coarse beard hair) beard growth. The razor with a butterfly closure has a light razor head and is suitable for light beard growth. With the safety razor with an adjustable razor head, the cutting angle of the double edge blade and the 'gap' (= opening of the razor head) can be adjusted. This allows you to adjust the level of 'aggressiveness' during shaving to your personal shaving technique. This type of razor is suitable for every type of beard growth or skin. Additionally, the weight of the razor also matters: a light razor for light beard growth; a heavy razor for normal to heavy beard growth.
Usage
First, lather the beard hairs well, hold the razor at an angle of about 30 degrees relative to the skin, press the blade lightly on the skin, and shave with the grain. For the neck area, pull the skin tight with the other hand.
