I never really known when to change my blade. It seems to still shave me just fine after weeks of use, I assume there comes a point when it's best to change it..

Are you shaving your self or a badger? if It is your self and you are focused on the general facial area then what most people are saying is correct. Blades last anything from 7 days to a month depending on usage, make of blade, and your shaving style.

The best way to judge is when it starts to become uncomfortable and doesn't give you a satisfactory result its time to change blades, and if your talking a Gillette razor you best take out another mortgage to afford the replacements! lol.

By the way if you do happen to be shaving a badger for what ever reason I would recommend a traditional cut throat razor and a leather strop. Also make sure you use plenty of foam and have a strong friend because the little buggers squirm lol.

With the cheap ones, usually one shave, then they go rusty, the expensive ones you can normally get a few shaves, so long as you rinse/wash and dry the blade after use. I hope this helps you.

It should be replaced after a weeks use. Or 7 shaves after that the performance isn't as good and can cause skin irritation

If this is for a disposable razor, it should be kept until it becomes rusty or gets too dull and you miss a lot of hairs when you try to shave.

If you're taking disposable then all heads usually have this line thing which sort of dissapears the more you use it,but on the whole if you shave everyday then 4 weeks I think.

You should only use it for 3 shaves.

I only get about three shaves out of mine because my facial hair is quite bristley. My dads last for yonks though so I wouldnt worry too much. I'd just use it until my stubble grew back too quickly. Get your moneys worth.
