How long do you use a disposable razor before you throw it out?

Question

I started using one not that long ago. (I used to use and electric razor) I just want to know how long you are suppose to use it. BTW I use the Gillette Venus Disposables.

Answer 1

Use any blade, disposable or not, 3-4 times MAX.Then wrap in guard from new blade, and toss.
Using it too long will cause razor burn, and nicks, as well as a bad shave.

Answer 2

i do no longer proportion my razor. To many illnesses are transmitted by ability of blood. Your Costco question comes at an thrilling time because of the fact I purely offered sixteen blades. i take advantage of a disposable razor for 2 or 3 weeks in the previous I throw it away -- usually my first serious warning call is while the aloe strip is beginning as much as fade -- then I be conscious the razor isn't as smart.

Answer 3

Anything the company tells you will simply be to make you buy more of it. There will not be any health risks so I would recommend that you use it until you think it doesn't work anymore. Some people use them until the conditioning strip runs out. It really is up to you. These questions are similar to 'How long is a piece of string?'

Just enjoy the razor and when you think it's not doing the job, ditch it.

Hope this helps.

Answer 4

I use a razor one time. Since the refill comes with 5, that gives me 5 weeks (once a week) of shaving. I would much rather toss one after I use it than it possibly get rust and then break my skin...causing me to have to get a tetanus shot.

Answer 5

they are meant for one time use only...but use them no more then 2 times because are disposable for a reason the blades aren't as good quality as the regular razors

Answer 6

Use it till either the blades start to look dull, show spots of rust or the hair starts to pull when you shave.

Answer 7

Well it depends I usually throw it out when the blade gets dull and start cutting your skin. When you shave your legs then throw it out because after 2 times it will get really dull because leg hair is the coursest.

Answer 8

I only use a disposable once. The blades while really sharp, dull very quickly and you increase your risk of nics and poorly cut hairs which then become ingrown.

Answer 9

i use mine at lest 2-3 times.

Answer 10

Just as long as it cuts smoothly and feels OK.
