King C. Gillette Double Edge Safety Razor

Blade life varies depending on beard thickness and shaving frequency, but typically, a blade should be replaced after 3-7 shaves or when it starts to feel dull.

Use a quality shaving cream or soap to soften the hairs and lubricate the skin, preparing the skin for a smooth shave.

Prepare your skin properly with warm water and a good shaving cream. Shave with the grain and avoid applying too much pressure. Always use aftershave balm to soothe the skin.
