Yes. Use short, light strokes and take curved areas slowly. Most customers say these are the areas where they notice the biggest drop in bumps and ingrown hairs.

It’s often better for sensitive skin than a multi-blade cartridge, because one blade means one pass over the skin instead of four or five. Less friction, less redness, less irritation.

Unscrew the handle, lift off the top plate, drop in a new blade, screw it back together. About ten seconds. There’s a video showing it above.

Around three to five, depending on how coarse your hair is. You’ll know it’s time to swap when the shave stops feeling effortless. A 5-pack is £9.95, and you get one free with your kit.

Keep an old jar or tin in your bathroom and drop blades in as you swap them. When it’s full, tape it shut and take it to a metal recycling point. Never put loose blades in your bin.
