Here’s how to save money by getting more shaves per razor blade.
When you are spending up to $4 a blade for the latest Gillette or Schick 4 and 5 blade razor, you want to make sure you get your money’s worth and make those blades last. If you can get more shaves per blade and keep the razor sharp you can save money. So after doing some digging around, I’ve found some useful tips you can use to make your razor blades last longer.
The biggest key is to keep your blades dry after using them. The Chicago Tribune reviewed all the methods for prolonging the life of razors but found the best way that worked was to dry your razors after using them. (source)
The science behind it is that razors become dull due to oxidation and mineral deposits more than from shaving. When water stays on the blades for prolonged periods of time, the razors oxidize. This causes corrosion and it can cause metal on the blade to flake off and cause the blades to become blunted and jagged.
Blot your razors dry with a towel after use.
You can double your shaves per blade just by using this one technique. This will keep your razor blades sharper longer.
You may also want to store your razors outside the bathroom to avoid contact with steam when you take hot showers.
Other tips to enhance your shaving include rinsing the blade often. Make sure you use warm water to soften up your whiskers. Let the shaving cream sit for a minute before you start to shave.
You can also dip the blades in alcohol before you blot them dry. The alcohol drives the water out and then quickly evaporates leaving you with a clean blade ready for the next shave.
So the next time you shave with your favorite Gillette or Schick razor, dry it off before you put it away.
You could double the life of your razors and save money.
]]>For the past few years, razor blade companies have been releasing more and more complicated razors with more and more blades. I suppose with inflation influencing everything else, perhaps it should be no surprise, but are five blades on a vibrating handle really necessary?
I think we can answer that question fairly quickly – no. People got along with 2 blades for years and had no problem at all. (People shaved with straight razors and most still did okay, unless they had Sweeney Todd for their barber.) But enough people have embraced the three-bladed razor to make us wonder whether it really is an improvement over its ancestors, and whether that means more will always be better.
A couple of years ago when Gillette released its first five-blade razor, it seemed incredibly absurd. The idea is that the five blade system pulls hair out and away from the skin while it cuts it, which apparently gives a closer, more comfortable shave. The current model includes another blade for trimming, so although you aren’t shaving with all six at once, it still has six blades.
Dermatologists say that any more than two blades will actually cause more razor burn and more pain. More blades means more friction – more ways to irritate the skin and more blades to nick it. However, are saying that they’ve solved those problems by putting the blades closer together, making them our of friction-reducing materials, and adding large guards to protect the skin.
The paradox is that most of the people with the most sensitive skin will actually have better luck with two or three blades. People with thicker hair usually do find that the increased number of blades can help their shave to last longer – a definite plus. However, those who have easily irritated skin will probably want to be careful before rushing out to by the latest in razor inflation – for the most sensitive, less is probably more.

Us women are always looking for good deals. And since we have to shave more than guys, it can get expensive to keep replacing our razor blades all the time. There is a good way to buy brand new name brand razors cheap.
No more paying $10 to $15 for a 4 pack of Venus Breeze or Divine razors.
I found out how to get my razors for as low as $1 a piece. This can save me over 2/3rds the cost of store razor blades for the same razors. And best of all, I don’t even need a coupon.
So if I used the Vibrance or new Noxzema razors, I would still be able to find them cheaper online than anywhere else. And that includes free shipping.
So if you are ready to save some money on your next box of razor blades, do what I do and shop online at the best place to buy cheap Gillette and Bic razors. Or if you like the Schick Quattro blades, you can save on those too. You can thank me later when you see how much you can save. And saving money is a good thing in this economy.
I save so much I can almost buy another new pair of shoes.
