A safety razor is a shaving tool designed to provide a safer and more controlled shaving experience compared to traditional straight razors. It is widely used for both personal grooming and professional shaving.
Key Features of a Safety Razor:
- Design:
- Handle: Typically features a sturdy, ergonomic handle that provides a secure grip. Handles can be made from materials such as metal, plastic, or a combination of both.
- Head: Contains a protective guard that helps to prevent cuts and nicks by controlling the blade’s exposure. The head can vary in design, including two-piece, three-piece, or twist-to-open models.
- Blade: Uses replaceable razor blades, which are thin and sharp. The blades are usually made of stainless steel.
