Amazon Basics 5-Blade Razor Handle for Women, Includes 12 Cartridges and Shower Hanger, 14 Piece Set, Blue

Let me start by saying: I originally bought this razor for my legs. You know — the usual shaving situation. Smooth calves, summer skirts, pretending I’m in a lotion commercial, all that jazz.Fast forward a bit, and life threw me a major plot twist: chemo. (Spoiler alert — cancer is the worst side character ever.) As my hair started falling out faster than my patience during hospital waiting room marathons, I realized it was time to take matters into my own hands... or more accurately, into my own bathroom.So there I was, armed with this razor — my trusty leg-shaving companion — now facing the big leagues: my head. And you know what? It absolutely delivered. Smooth as butter. No nicks, no tears (okay, maybe a few tears but not because of the razor). It glided over my scalp like it had been training for this moment its whole life.The best part? It turned a scary, vulnerable moment into something empowering — even a little bit fun. There’s something wildly satisfying about looking in the mirror post-shave and thinking, “Okay, bald actually looks kind of badass on me.”So yes, I bought this razor for my legs, but it turned out to be the MVP of my chemo journey. It didn't just shave my head — it helped me take control of something when everything else felt like chaos. 10/10 would recommend. Especially if your hair has decided to ghost you without warning.Thanks, little razor buddy. You came through in the most unexpected, hilarious, and heroic way.

Love these replaceable heads. Been using this Amazon razor for almost two years and the replaceable heads make it cost effective. They stay sharp and are easy to clean. I like the blue gel/soap that is around them but just don’t let that side sit down on a surface or it gets gross.

I really love this product because you don't even have to apply anything before using it you can us just water and it work so good you skin will be so soft after plus great price too!

I've purchased the razor and refills three times. I shave every day or two and a fresh refill blade lasts me two months, so the set lasts me about two years. For the money, I'm not sure I could find a more economical route. One downfall I noticed with the last set is that the moisturizing strip swells and sometimes it blocks the blade from shaving against the skin. Then I have to use more pressure to get a close shave. It's not horrible but it is slightly inconvenient.

Love this razor!!! Never in my life have I ever not been afraid to shave my knees and above my ankles. A few summers ago I was shaving right above my ankle and sliced off a HUGE chunk of my skin. Then again, a few weeks later, I did it again on my other ankle. Since then I’ve always been wary of shaving.But this razor! I knew after the first time I used it that this would be my forever razor. It’s so easy to use, flexible and leaves a nice clean cut. Only one pass required for those pesky armpit hairs. It’s also extremely easy to switch heads and surprisingly the holder actually STAYS on the shower wall. I thought it would be some dinky plastic thing (which it is lol) but it actually does an amazing job staying up there.Overall, theres no razor burn, no ingrown hairs, and leaves me as smooth as a a baby. Definitely worth the money

These razors are great. They work excellent compared to major expensive brands. I will never buy any other razors. You get so many for the price of 3 refills from other brands. I definitely recommend.

I thought a "basics" product would have a reduced amount of packaging. There is way too much cardboard and plastic packaging here. They really could have stored all of the blades (in individual packages that are necessary for safety), the razor handle, and the suction cup thingy loose in the box.I've only used the razor a couple of times so far. I'll update this review if the blades somehow last longer than the Venus blades I've been using for years. Otherwise it'll remain at three stars thanks to the excessive, wasteful packaging.

Do not sleep on these!! These are the best razors I have owned. I used to get razor burn no matter what brand I used, not anymore!!!
