Any thoughts, expiriences…?
I like their razor but I use other blades. I’ve had previous safety razors that had hinges to open the top part to put the blade in. Those were fine until I dropped them. My Henson razor though is just 3 aluminium pieces that screw into each other, so virtually indestructible.
Been using theirs and razors for years now. It’s great. I don’t have any reason to switch. Especially since I got like 100 razors for ten bucks. I’m only like 15 in. It’s really nice to swap the razor whenever I want. Easy peasy
i think shaving is a thoroughly solved problem. ?
I have one, I think it lives up to its claims and is worth the price. It is the only safety razor I’ve used that has comparable irritation and ease of use to a disposable razor. It’s particularly good for sensitive skin, and I’m significantly less likely to accidentally cut myself with it compared to my normal safety razor.
I assume you’re using their handle and their blades? If so, have you used other blades before for comparison? I go back and forth between a disposable razor and a safety razor with feather blades, but I always go back to disposable cartridge after the novelty wears off.
Yes I quite like it!
It’s a different experience from electric or disposable “five blade” razors. You have to take care of your skin before and after, you have to recognize when the blade needs changing, etc.
As for Henson specifically, the experience has been good. About 5% of the blades they sent with the razor are a bit funky and don’t align right. I toss those out. Otherwise if used right, it’s a very close shave, very accurate, smooth, and easy to use.
I’d say it was money I don’t regret spending. I use it every day and alternatives aren’t as good of an experience.
