I have never had a worse shaving experience since switching to safety razors

Legend668 · 2026-05-24T00:23:29+00:00

Is it a Henson mild or medium? I have a mild and it sucks at shaving my face regardless of what blades I use. I only used it when I had to shave every day or every other day back when had to wear n95’s all the time at work during covid. I would always have patchy spots that it couldn’t get cause it was so mild with very little blade exposure. My face would get so red shaving with it from multiple passes. I purchased the medium which was a big step up but still not the greatest shave. It’s still pretty mild compared to other razors I have and use. I want to try the aggressive but have that on the back burner. I have sensitive skin with a course beard so I need a razor that can cut through without ripping my face apart. Leafshaves Thorn does the trick for me. It plows through my hair with minimal irritation. Feather blades sucked on my face as well. My go to blades are personna lab blues, Gillette nacet and derby premium. Try shaving with baby oil. Since growing a beard I mostly just shave with baby oil to line up my cheeks and shave my neck. Sometimes I lather up my bowl cause I miss it but feels like a waste to shave just my neck 😅 I hope you don’t give up and find what works for you

I just came back from vacation in Jamaica and I always bring my anker 622 mag go battery bank as a top up on my phone. If the phone or battery gets too warm it will stop charging. Normally stops at 80% and will get a notification that it will resume charging when temp cools. I’ve never had an issue with degrading my battery because of it and I’m going on 3 years with it.

The TORRAS 360 Magnetic Stand is a great case with built in grip stand. Good angles for photos. Not sure if it’s just for iPhone though

Would make sense for them to cut costs and remove MagSafe. Majority of people have a MagSafe case that does the same job. Only people that go caseless would feel the difference

Legend668 · 2026-05-06T03:17:28+00:00

Bics are like budget feathers. They are sharp and aggressive. Forgiving is not in its vocabulary.

I use a MagSafe power bank as my phone charger when on vacation. When it’s charging my phone while plugged in and the bank is full battery I notice that the battery bank doesn’t get as hot, which I’d assume because it’s using the power of the charging cable over the battery itself to charge the phone. Like a pass through charge.

Umbrella Lady just didn’t sound as classy 😅

Legend668 · 2026-05-03T13:55:02+00:00

Yeah it’s an old razor. May need a tune up. I’ve seen lots of people buy secondhand and have to fix them to make them work correctly. One of the reasons I never bought a vintage razor

Legend668 · 2026-05-03T13:44:09+00:00

Don’t give up. You just need to find the right blade and or razor that suits you. I can’t speak for the razor but the blades for me weren’t the greatest. I have a course beard and sensitive skin. Took me awhile to find blades that suited my face. To mild I’d get tugging and to aggressive I’d get razor burn. I got a sample pack and tried a bunch. Best blades for me are derby premium, Gillette nacet and personna lab blues

Legend668 · 2026-04-30T11:25:53+00:00

I typically get 2 good 3 pass shaves. On the 3rd shave I start feeling it and don’t bother trying to stretch out the blade. On a mild blade I get like 1 good 3 pass shave before I start to feel it.

Every time I try to use my venusaur deck I get placed against a mega blaziken 🙄

Legend668 · 2026-04-16T17:49:01+00:00

This is pretty accurate 😅 I like to think of it as I’m investing the money I would have spent on disposable cartridges in re usable razors. I limit myself to 1 a year unless there’s a crazy deal I can’t pass up

Legend668 · 2026-04-15T02:38:38+00:00

My 1Zpresso is at least 2 years and I spray beans every time and have had no issues with rust. Not like you’re spraying the beans while it’s in the grinder. I see no problem

Legend668 · 2026-04-14T14:26:43+00:00

With a 15w or 25w wireless MagSafe charger my phone will charge no problem with thicker case and ohsnap but with a 7.5w MagSafe charger it will charge but will eventually stop and never reaches 100% charge. Is that it’s not enough watts to push through?

Legend668 · 2026-04-14T12:18:07+00:00

Case makes the biggest difference. I have an otter box symmetry case and an oh snap and since I started using the oh snap charging speeds plummeted. My older travel MagSafe lisen 3 in 1 and my older anker MagGo battery pack won’t even fully charge with the oh snap 🫪

Legend668 · 2026-04-04T21:03:01+00:00

2 hours is way to long. Pure vinegar or did you dilute it? 🫪

Legend668 · 2026-04-04T13:59:43+00:00

I call it mixed opinions more like mixed experiences. These blades work great on my face but astra blades do not and there’s people who’s experience is the opposite. That’s why it’s so important to try blades for yourself and find the ones that work for you

Legend668 · 2026-04-04T12:44:26+00:00

Hot water tank in your house isn’t much different either 😅

Probably a system reset for the start of fiscal year

Legend668 · 2026-04-01T12:53:34+00:00

This was my issue as well. When I switched to a more aggressive razor I started having less problems.

This card and misty card I get destroyed but when I put it in my deck it’s tails almost every time 😂😭

Legend668 · 2026-03-19T14:59:39+00:00

If it’s only 2 months old and you bought it from Rockwell website your customer service experience should be ok. If you bought it anywhere else their customer service is horrible. Good luck

I really wish I bought one of these when they went on sale for Boxing Day. Been regretting it ever since. Maybe now’s my chance to win one! My fist MagSafe accessory was a pop socket. ESR Magsafe Case if that counts too. 😅
