“Unfortunately I don't see any difference I normally shave once a week and still have to even using this product.
I did find the razor very heavy to start with don't get me wrong it's a, beautiful piece.
I'm still getting used to using it so will persevere with it as I really don't want to go back to plastic. I do think it could be slightly cheaper as I like to have 2 razors for different parts of my body but can't justify another 31 pound just for that as I like to have the stand also.
The replacement razor are a brilliant idea and the razor bank genuinely is fantastic and so much safer 😊😊”
“I have been looking for a way to reduce my plastic use as much as possible & this is one step in the right direction. I was a bit worried at first, thinking I’d end up cutting my leg off or something, but once I received the product and watched the videos, it was so straight forward. Even did my knees and ankles without any issues! I absolutely love the razor & I can’t believe the impact it’s had on my skin, I rarely get ingrown hairs, whereas before I would be 100% sure to get several. Would highly recommend and will not be returning to disposable razors ever again!!!”
“Although the look of the razor is amazing and easy to use. Not impressed with the results. Hair grew back the next day which never happened before had to go back to my old razor”
“Unfortunately they weren’t for me. Still left my legs sore and sensitive. Shame cos there a good idea. Nothing to do with the razors just me terrible skin.”
“Still a newbie in using my lane 44 safety razor but so far so good ! Navigating the webpage and ordering my razor was a smooth and easy process. I personally feel it’s money well spent and good value for money there are much more expensive razors out there. Quick delivery comes in a nice box, also bought the little disposal box for the blades. The blades themselves are lasting 3-4 uses. The razor handle itself feels study and like it will have longevity. Easy enough to clean and change blades. I wouldn’t say I’ve noticed a massive difference in the closeness or the quality of the shave compared to a normal a razor. It does take me longer to shave because I’m trying to be careful not to nick myself. Does shave best on legs and wide flat areas. But it is possible to shave in more awkward to reach areas/ the neither regions for those guys who are wondering ! It’s only going to make minuscule impact but I’m glad I’ve made the switch to a more environment friendly blade. Happy shaving everyone !”
“Yes yes & yes! I’m here for this razor, I’ve managed my third/fourth shave and only cut my once a tiny bit but that was my error! I can even tan almost immediately after without irritation or red bumpy skin! Highly recommend!”
“I've not had a positive experience using this razor. There's not been a time where I haven't horribly cut myself and I don't find the resulting shave to be that smooth.
It looks lovely and in steadier hands it might work better, but I've never cut myself so many times as I have using this product in the 15+ years I've been shaving.”
Hey Annie,
Thanks for the review and letting us know the challenges you've had with using the product.
The most important technique adjustment is to use absolutely no pressure. You def shouldn't be getting loads of cuts and a really steady hand isn't important. Using no pressure will make a huge difference.
Here's a video that others have found really helpful in finding the right technique:

“I am not impressed with the razor as a product- there was a lot of promise in all the social media adds, but I find these razors to cause more irritation or not cut the hairs at all.”
Hey Hayley,
Thanks for the feedback.
It definitely sounds like there's an issue. If you're finding the razor isn't cutting the hairs, I think there must be a technique issue.
It sounds like the razor isn't being held at the right angle. This could be a reason why you're experiencing irritation.
Give us a shout and we'll be more than happy to help sort this for you!
