Sustainability: Feature of a product or system to stay good for a long time. The meaning of sustainability is easy to involve on your shaving system. What you use (or purchase) ultimately returns to the environment. Consider how a cartridge razor with plastic or disposable razor blades can influence the environment. Exactly not in a positive way. Fortunately, there are ways to be able to shave sustainably, and there are also many benefits (much cheaper!) There are also. Time to get it sustainably shaving under the man.
Why would you shave sustainably?
There are plenty of reasons to shave sustainably. To make it clear, we will mention some points.
- Much better for the environment
- You're much cheaper
- Your shaving result is smoother and better
- You have to shave less often
Sustainable shaving with a safety razor
Let's go one Cartridge Razor And dissect a disposable razor blade. A disposable razor consists of plastic and, if it is bone, throw away completely. A cartridge razor is a little better, but also consists entirely of plastic. The interchangeable shaving heads consist of plastic and metal, making them difficult to recycle. Fortunately, there are razors that are sustainable.
The Safety Razor is a very sustainable razor. It is one razor Without plastic and the razor blades (Double Edge Blades) can be changed. For this one razor blades You only pay a few cents each, so count out that profit!
Other benefits of sustainable shaving
There are a lot more benefits to sustainable shaving than we have already mentioned. We have briefly highlighted that your shaving result becomes smoother, better and more comfortable. How then? Well, because the Safety Razor shaves the hairs a lot closer to your skin, you will enjoy your shave more. You have less chance of ingrown hairs, less chance of a "shadow" over your face and a safety razor is also mild for your skin. Shaving irritations are therefore prevented. Because the safety razor cuts your hair tighter and shorter, you also have to shave less often. Win-win.
How can you shave even more sustainably?
But can you only shave more sustainably if you use a safety razor? No. Of course you can always shave more sustainably in other ways. For example, start shaving wet (if you don't do that yet). Beat with one shaving brush An shaving soap up in you shaving bowl foam to release in a plastic bottle and focus on the age -old way of it wat.
You can also take a critical look at the aftershave you use. An aftershave is often in a plastic package. Some aftershaves are in a glass bottle, that makes us happier. You can also choose to use Aluin as aftershave. Alum Is a completely natural mineral that is extremely suitable as an aftershave!
No disadvantages!
All in all, we actually see no disadvantages to sustainable shaving. It is cheaper, more comfortable, more thorough and better for the environment. Don't be put off by the price of a Safety Razor. This friend often goes all your life if you take good care of him. Do a simple calculation and you will see that it is still (much!) Cheaper than shaving with a cartridge razor.
