Wet shaving doesn’t involve some new disposable razors or cartridges, making it a more sustainable practice. Many shaving soaps and creams are in reusable containers, which means it is not as much waste if you are responsible. And check to make sure you are buying a biodegradable one, which means the little you throw away also doesn’t kill the planet.

A double-edged razor is an upgrade, no matter how you look at it. It is heavy and sturdy and better than a plastic razor. This one will also last longer, which is the cheaper option. You can pick from the many universally fitting blades available in the market. A straight razor also comes with the same benefits.

    Switched a decade ago. Costs next to nothing and is the only method that doesn’t destroy my face. Feather titanium double edge blades and proraso shaving soap and a brush is all I need.

      Yes those Feathers are super sharp. I can only use them in a milder razor like Merkur 34C. On slightly more aggressive razors I find it too sharp and get nicks. So that matching the blade with razor and skin is so important.
