Mondo Health Updated on 2024-02-28

Razors (also known as razors) are favored for their excellent shaving capabilities and convenient operation, making them a must-have item for men. However, there are many types of razor products on the market, and there are also a lot of inferior products, and the use of such inferior products with poor workmanship not only cannot completely shave the beard, but also has the risk of scratching the face, which makes many people worried. As a personal care evaluation expert, many of my fans and friends have also asked me, is shaver harmful? In order to answer your doubts, I have conducted a detailed research on the razor products on the market, and I will share my findings with the help of this article.

Below are some of the shavers I reviewed:

OneAre razors harmful?

Are razors harmful? Although razors are very common in life, many men use them to trim their facial beards, but if we encounter those non-professional shavers with very poor workmanship, it will have a series of serious hazards, which will have a negative impact on our physical and mental health. The following is an explanation of the dangers of inferior razors, and everyone should pay close attention to them.

Hazard 1, scratches**:Some inferior products use blades that are not sharp enough, and are easy to run poorly during use, resulting in malfunction leading to friction for too long, scratches or scratches**, and in severe cases, bleeding and inflammation.

Hazard 2, **Infection:Do not use an unprofessional razor when you have acne, which will greatly increase the risk of infection, and if you are not careful, there will be stamuli, or scratch acne and other phenomena occur, increasing the probability of infection or folliculitis, which is manifested as redness, swelling, pain and pus.

Hazard 3, unclean shaving:Due to the lack of professional technical tuning, inferior shavers are very prone to incomplete shaving, skin jamming, pulling pain and unclean shaving during use, causing irritation and allergic reactions and other adverse conditions.

Hazard 4, allergic reactions:Low-priced and low-quality products often do not have a high cost, so poor selection of materials can easily lead to stinging, redness, itching or other allergic reactions.

2. Why do low-quality razors cause so much harm?

Are razors harmful? Through the previous discussion, we learned that those inferior products that use inferior materials and low quality can bring us great harm in the process of use. So why do low-quality razors do so much harm? I found a summary table of negative reviews and complaints about razors on the whole network from a professional organization**. Through careful analysis, the following reasons have been summarized, and I hope to attract everyone's attention.

Reason 1: The blade material is too poor

In order to be able to cut the beard quickly, the shaver usually needs to be equipped with a stainless steel blade with high hardness and sharpness, if the blade material is poor or ordinary steel is used, then its hardness and sharpness will not be very good, which will greatly affect the cutting ability of the blade, so the cutting speed will be slower, affecting the shaving efficiency, and the blade will also pull the beard when shaving.

Reason 2: Technical tuning is not up to par

At present, the shaver industry is monopolized by big brands, but it lacks technical adjustment of the core shaving and cutting efficiency, beard residual rate, dynamic resistance attenuation, body fit, compatibility of different beard hardness densities, skin jamming rate, and sensitivity of the shaver, resulting in the problem of skin jamming, pulling pain and unclean shaving during the use of the shaver.

Reason 3: Improper use and operation

When using an electric shaver, you need to avoid putting too much pressure on the shaver and using it for too long, which will lead to excessive friction or cuts, and for people with sensitive skin, it can also aggravate sensitivity or cause allergic reactions.

Reason 4: The quality of the motor is low

The motor is the core power of the shaver**, if the motor of the shaver is of poor quality, it cannot provide enough power when it is used, and it is easy to attenuate performance, which leads to slow rotation and vibration efficiency of the blade or insufficient power, so the blade will be stuck when shaving, and the beard will not be cut quickly, not only the beard can not be shaved cleanly, but also the pulling pain.

ThreeWhat are the advantages of using a good razor?

Are razors harmful? Although these inferior razors are very harmful, a high-quality professional razor can bring us great convenience, it is rich in functions, excellent shaving results, and can better help us save time on cosmeticing. The general shaver is divided into manual and electric, let's take a look at what advantages they have.

Manual shaver:Generally, manual razors are usually lower, more affordable, and have a simple operation, after use, you can decide whether to replace the blade according to the degree of the blade, the volume is also more compact, you can fit it in your pocket, and it is very convenient to carry. However, the manual shaver needs to soften the beard with water or shaving cream before shaving, so that it is good to shave the beard, the whole process is not very fast, it is more cumbersome, and it is easy to control the strength and angle of the shaving in use, the stimulation of the shaving is not easy to control, and the blade is easy to scratch, and for the people with thick and hard beards, the shaving effect of the manual shaver is poor.

Electric shaver:Compared to manual shavers, electric shavers have a comparatively higher **. However, it is easier and faster to use, and there is no need to apply shaving cream and wash the face. The electric shaver uses an internal motor to drive the blade to move, and on the way to high-speed rotation, the beard is quickly shaved by vibration, without the need for us to adjust the shaving technique and strength ourselves. In addition, the cutter head is generally equipped with a knife net, which greatly reduces the friction of the shave, makes the shaving process more gentle and comfortable, and can greatly avoid the probability of scratching, and is also suitable for the majority of people with different skin types and different beard hardness. In addition, the blades of electric shavers are presumably more durable than those of manual shavers and do not need to be changed frequently.

High-quality professional electric shavers are obviously much easier to use than manual ones, not only can bring better shaving results, but also more convenient and simple, but be careful, be sure to choose a reliable brand with professional technical tuning.

There are many inferior razors on the market, mostly because many unscrupulous businesses hype their own razors ** affordable and convenient to use, to deceive consumers, so so many inferior products are popular on the market. So how do you distinguish the good from the bad among the many brands? I have prepared a comparison chart of the shaver multi-brand performance index and the skin-free index, which you can refer to for yourself.

The performance of international brands in the razor market is seriously castrated, and emerging brands are fighting the best battles, pursuing high-value portability, etc., and the problem of unclean whiskers with high hair shavesDesigned for people with fever and exerciseIt is the only style that can be comparable to the net beard effect of the manual model, compared with competing products in the same price rangeThe shaving residue rate is less than 004%, the residual length of the beard is reduced by 982%, the fit has been improved by 973%,Fully compatible with 36 face shapes, 24 types of beard hardness and density, almost 100% non-skin-friendly, non-sensitive, and non-pinching. It never advertises, and is sought after by professional athletes and extreme sports enthusiasts because of its "unconventional" fever sports concept and performance, such as well-known athletes, world champions Xue Tailai, Zhang Bin, Tao Xu, etcIt is rare to be recommended by CCTV and is known as the peak performance model within 1,000 yuan

Weiye has provided technical solutions for a large number of sports care institutions and brands around the world, without engaging in redundant functions, a product has been dead for many years, after more than 20 times, and more than 100 performance details have been upgraded and optimized! The first to use stainless steel imported from Germany 598HV self-grinding knife mesh, blade, X-HIVES60 honeycomb metal power engine, etcThe net effect is the strongest within 1,000 yuan, and the core dimensions such as fit and comfort are comparable to those of 1,000 yuan models, and there are more than 6 years of anti-attenuation certification, and the power is long-lasting without attenuation!

Entry-level productMijia, FeikeThe quality is okay, but there is still a distance from the professional mid-to-high-end products, and I hope to make a little more effort in the follow-up on the net whisker and fit.

FourthHow to buy quality products

Are razors harmful? Through the above popular science, I think you also understand the importance of product pros and cons, so mastering the purchase method is the most important thing. I have brought you a few practical razor purchase tips, only do your homework before buying, so you don't have to worry about falling into the trap of the merchant and buying a low-quality razor that is very harmful.

1. Strong professional brands should be given priority

Professional brands will pay more attention to the technical adjustment of the shaver's different beard hardness, skin jamming rate, shaving cutting efficiency, compatibility of fit, density, sensitivity, beard residue rate, dynamic resistance attenuation, etc., which can improve the shaving effect while reducing the irritation and friction during shaving.

2. Pay attention to the source of the blade knife mesh

The source of the razor's blade mesh will directly affect its shaving and cutting effect, and the professional brand blade mesh usually uses imported steel, which has higher hardness and corrosion resistance, which can improve the efficiency of beard cutting, achieve a lower shaving residue rate, and is not easy to irritate when shaving**.

3. Choose one that is easy to disassemble and clean

After using the razor, it is necessary to clean the beard residue and dirt on the blade in time to reduce the breeding of bacteria, keep the shaver clean and hygienic and the shaving and cutting efficiency of the blade.

4. The blade knife mesh made of stainless steel is of better quality

Stainless steel has high hardness and sharpness, and at the same time is more resistant to wear and corrosion, which can shave the beard more efficiently and thoroughly, and stainless steel is more durable and less prone to rust and deformation, reducing the cost of replacing the blade blade mesh.

5. The structure design of the curved surface cutter mesh is better

The curved design of the knife mesh can better fit the contours of the face, and the curved knife mesh design can increase the contact area with ** and adapt to the growth direction of the beard, so it can increase the amount of beard during the shaving process, so it can shave the beard more completely and improve the shaving efficiency.

6. The floating level design is more comprehensive for shaving

It is preferable to have a triple floating design shaver with a knife net, knife surface and cutter head that can be floated, so that the facial curves of different people can be more fitted, the shaving is more comprehensive without leaving dead corners, and the pressure and friction on the knife can be reduced to avoid scratching.

7. The number of cutter heads, blades, and meshes should be large

The higher the number of blades and meshes, the better the shave. Preferably a shaver with three cutter heads + double blades + double ring mesh, it can better adapt to various facial contours and cover a larger shaving area, so it can shave more quickly, while reducing the irritation to achieve a smoother and finer shave.

8. The battery life should be strong

For people who use shavers frequently, if the shaver has poor battery life, it needs to be charged frequently, and it may even run out of power suddenly during use, resulting in the inability to complete the shaving, which is a waste of time. Therefore, we should preferably use a shaver with a high-quality battery and a battery life of about 90 minutes, which can reduce our trouble of frequent charging, and also supports charging while using and five-minute flash charging, which is more convenient to use.

Are razors harmful? Through the whole study, I believe that you have increased a lot of knowledge about razors, and also know how harmful inferior razors are, so we must carefully refer to the purchase skills I shared when choosing razors, which can effectively avoid everyone falling into the trap set by the business, so that our own safety has an extra layer of protection!
