Safety Razor - Muhle Traditional - R 41, Open Comb Rose Gold

Razorhead - Open Comb:

Open comb safety razors require a little more care and respect in the beginning. After a short period of familiarization, and guidance from a steady hand, it gives you a very effective long-lasting shave. This type of razor is designed especially for those who love wet, wet shaving. Due to their special construction, which creates a special angle on the blade, such a model allows an energetic, very direct shave. The combination of the open comb razor and blade ensures stability and accuracy. The result depends on the length of the generations and their density. When you start shaving, run the razor along the skin without applying pressure. In the second move, you do it from the opposite direction.

Instructions for use:

Shaving with a safety razor requires a little practice. The skin also needs some time to grow accustomed to the shave. Getting started will be easier if you follow these instructions: Moisten the beard area, preferably with warm water, and lather it thoroughly with a brush. The longer you lather the beard, the more easily and gently the hairs can be cut. If possible, use a highly effective moisturising shaving cream or soap as this will allow the blade to slide over the skin more easily. Make sure that the shaving head and handle are firmly attached to each other, but only tighten the screw to the extent that it can be unscrewed without too much effort. This ensures that the blade rests at the correct angle. Now begin with the shave. Hold the safety razor at an obtuse angle (approx. 30°) to the skin. Start with the cheeks and allow the razor to slide over the skin, applying gentle pressure. Always shave in the direction of the beard growth (with the grain). When shaving the neck, stretch the skin tight with your free hand. Do not be discouraged by small cuts or grazes. Once you have familiarised yourself with the razor, they will rarely occur.
