I swapped to Harry's a few years back as they're one of the few vegan brands. But this shit is frustrating. Those little rubber side pieces are load bearing and made thin enough that they're gonna break after a while.

I literally can't remember the leftist word for a product that's designed to break after some time.

No shame directed at the bearded comrades, but damn shaving helps get a tight seal with N95s.

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.
