Is the Bareaya razor suitable for sensitive skin?

Will I save money?
A well-maintained safety razor can last indefinitely.
As for the blades, refills sold in supermarkets generally cost €2 to €3 , while ours cost less than €0.20 per blade . That's ten times cheaper! In the long run, the difference is significant.
Usage & Safety
Is a safety razor difficult to use?
No. The Bareaya safety razor was designed to be accessible, even for beginners. Its balanced weight and closed comb make it easy to use. The razor head covers almost the entire blade, leaving just enough for effectiveness while offering maximum safety. Simply don't apply pressure and let the razor glide over your skin.
Is there a greater risk of cuts than with a disposable razor?
No. Thanks to its low blade exposure and closed comb, the Bareaya razor offers a smooth and controlled shave. There's no more risk than with any other razor, and many people even find it a more comfortable shave.
What is the correct angle for shaving?
An angle of approximately 30 degrees is recommended. With a safety razor, there's no need to apply pressure: the weight of the razor is sufficient.
Can I use the razor in the shower?
Yes. The razor can be used in the shower. After use, it is recommended to rinse it thoroughly and dry it to preserve the metal and the blade.
Should you use soap or shaving foam?
Yes, it's highly recommended. A shaving soap, cream, or oil protects the skin and improves glide, thus reducing the risk of irritation.
Can I travel with my safety razor?
Yes. The razor can be carried in checked baggage. In the cabin, the blade must be removed before going through security.

Should the razor be disassembled after each use?
