When one views my site, they may find that I set aside $10 per month for my hygiene. However, when browsing through the shaving section of a store, they may find cartridge razors more than that. Since I also shave my head, one might wonder how can I shave with more area to shave at a budget less than what cartridge razors might be. The answer is I don’t use cartridge razors.
In November of 2021, I transitioned from cartridge razors to double-edge razors. The way I did that was I spent money on a Leaf Razor which was a significant amount of money, and then I use 1 half double-edge blade. This is extremely cheap – especially when compared to cartridge razors. I pay 5¢ per week on blades which comes to 20¢ per month. My cheapest cartridge razor was $2.50 per cartridge.
A 100 count of double edge razors are $10. That comes to 5¢ per half double edge, and will support me for 200 weeks. There are 52 weeks in a year, so I have almost 4 years of razors for $10. Simply put, there is no way to beat that!
