I recommend all hairy comrades buy an actual double edged safety razor and some razor blades. There's a bit of a learning curve and an upfront cost, but you will get a better shave, for much cheaper, without a ton of disposable plastic waste.
I bought a razor and a decent brush over ten years ago and the only shaving supplies I buy now are the blades which are definitely vegan and cost almost nothing
Do you shave your head with it? If so, send links to brand etc. I'm a baldie and thus have to do a shave every few days, and find it easier in the shower. I just don't want to cut myself - I once shaved off a flap of skin (granted it was ironically with a Harry's, had to switch back to Gillette after that sadly because the Mach 5 never cut me like that).
I've found it a little tricky to shave my head with a double-edged safety razor, but a GEM single-edged razor is brilliant for it. DE clogs quickly, and i tend to to nick myself behind the top of my ears. SE no such problems.
