## How to choose the best safety razor 

A safety razor is not only sustainable but also timeless in design. This type of razor has been popular since the 19th century and offers an environmentally friendly alternative to plastic disposable razors. Safety razors are often chrome-plated, giving them a stylish, classic look. 

 

### Closed or open comb? 

Choosing between a closed or open comb is important when selecting a safety razor. 

  

Closed comb: The safety bar protects the skin by stretching it slightly before the blade cuts the hair. This reduces the risk of cuts, making it ideal for beginners. 

Open comb: This design exposes more of the blade, offering a more efficient and precise shave. It is perfect for experienced users who want a faster and closer shave. 

 

## Advantages of a safety razor 

### Safety razor: close shave, less skin irritation 

A safety razor requires only one pass over the same area, which reduces shaving irritation. This makes it ideal for those with sensitive skin. 

 

### Double-edged blades 

Safety razors use double-edge blades, which are sharp on both sides. This allows you to use both edges of the blade, making it more efficient. 

 

### Butterfly mechanism 

Many safety razors feature a handy butterfly mechanism. By twisting the handle, the head opens, allowing for easy blade replacement. This system is quick, user-friendly and hassle-free.
