It’s always great to see a new video from you Greg. Hope you and your family are well. What are the odds you are going to fire up the grill this weekend?
I'm going to mention the Rockwell R1 which is $15 and the Van Der Hagan 85mm TTO razor which is $15. Both come with horrible blades, but the razors are mild and solid shavers. I have both and they're basically easy as hell to learn on. Also the Van Der Hagan shaving soap is very affordable and works extremely well! Definitely give em a try.
Thanks Robert! I’ve seen the R1 in a few starter kits. I’ve had a van der hagen tto that I got at a pharmacy. Didn’t care for it at all though. Maybe it was a different one
@@GregTardif the Van Der Hagan is really mild. I don't use mine anymore either, but for what it is it's a good starter. The Rockwell R1 however is better made, more aggressive and has a wider handle. Plus a little more heft to it. I still use mine from time to time.
IMO the Henson AL13 Medium is the best razor to get started with. The precision build quality is unmatched and the blade is set to such an angle that it cuts perfectly without any razor burn or irritation. it’s also the only razor I’ve ever used that almost never cuts or nicks my face. It is the most user-friendly razor you’ll ever try.
@@GregTardif If you do, make sure you order it directly from the Henson website because they have a version 2 out now, some of the other retailers still have the old version which is still great but not as good and The new version adds great features like beveled edges & full length lather rinsing channels, among other nice improvements.
I agree with the KC Gillette, nice razor but the handle is way too slippery. I swapped my handle out with a Razorock handle. I also agree with the Leaf Twig/Thorn razors they are excellent! You said Henson but didn’t recommend it, I would put that at the top somewhere. YMMV right?! Good job though with the video, thanks.
Bro, when I started I bought da Merkur 34c but it was too mild. Then I bought da 37c slant cause i heard it was more agressive but it dint work for me. Now I use the Muhle R41 with my go to blades Gillette Platinums and Wizamt blades. I am looking to upgrade from that now to a Stainless Steel razor, what do you recommend? Nice video.

Some good options Greg! I'd recommend a Razorock 'Gamechanger .68' as a nice, inexpensive but sturdy stainless steel DE that is also not particularly aggressive. I find that it is logical to focus on the hardware but the preparation process, and the soap and lather production, are also key things for new shavers to learn about. One thing at a time, I know! Your suggestion about trying a variety pack of blades also a good thought as all of our faces do seem to be different. Thanks!
Good info to have - I'd never heard of the twig, but I have a stack of half razors from when I used a shavette (I recommend getting the half blades, and sometimes snapping them can give you weird angles) so I might pick one up. Hope you feel better soon Greg!
The Rockwell 2C and the Gillette Heritage are both great budget friendly razors. Don’t buy both, because they’re both basically the same razor. I got the 2C and gifted the Heritage to my nephew.
I started with the 6C and have settled on the R3 plate for my shaves (for now). So, since the 2C comes with that plate for a lower price, it's a great option that I probably could have gone with from the beginning.
I started de-shaving with a Wilkinson sword razor and blade. It was a horrible experience because I used a little too much pressure the first time around with it. However, I switched to the Rockwell razor system and had a much better experience shaving. Now I am really getting into shave stick soap because it is very easy to use and lather.
I'n my 4 years of shaving with a safety razor, i have never cut my finger's on a blade. Butterfly doors look cool. But if you pay attention to what you are doing, you should be fine with loading any razor.
I've never cut myself on the sharpened parts yet, but those tabs sliced my wet finger and thumb while tightening a 3 piece head. That's a definite advantage with TTOs. Once you cut your finger and thumb on your main eating hand, salt and vinegar chips aren't as much fun.
1.50 Five pack of bic Works the best for me.. But I stopped doing that..I just use a regular hair buzzer for your hair..Works perfectly fine ..Just leaves a little stubble you don't even notice it..Best of all it's free
Damn, this Leaf thing is so shiny.😍 I would add the Wilkinson Sword Classic Vintage Edition to the list. It's still available as a gift set including a brush (synthetic, okay), soap (a little sensitive to the right amount of water) and a pack of blades, of course. But... If I knew back in the days gone by when people were worried about the year 2k bug killing every computer around the world what I know today I just would have bought the Merkur 37C respectively the vintage model and could have shaved on happily ever after. I really don't get what people are talking about the "aggressiveness" of slant bar razors. For me this type of razor (no matter if Parker, Merkur or Fatip) let's intuitively find your hand the right angle (always the top cap slightly touching your skin). For beginners I'd recommend to tame the potential of the slant bar by useing a harmless blade like the *Treet Carbon Steel* before one unleashes the power of smoothness with a *Gillette Platinum* _(darn sharp, pretty silky and charmingly unforgiving)_ or even the legendary Feather _(remorselessly acute, untellingly smooth and mercilessly efficient)_ . The path to the closest shave on earth is not a gauntlet. “And those who were seen dancing the slant bar were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the blade singing.” Friedrich Nietsche, German philosopher (Since this is still the internet: yes, I changed the quote slightly.) Damn, that sunday morning coffee was strong. I should get some fresh air or something.
@@GregTardif With what kind of razor? From my expierience the TCR tends to feel scratchy in razors with bulky top caps and mid to high blade exposition that allow a little more play with the angle because it's not sharp enough to cut immedeatly.
Mr. Tardif, do you know what the blade gap or aggression of the TRC aluminum razor is? If you had to compare it to a setting on the Rockwell 6s which plate would it be close to?
1970 Gillette black beauty adjustable 20-30 on ebay 1960-1967 Gillette slim adjustable 20-30 bucks eBay Gillette Fatboy extremely overpriced on ebay but above two will shave just as perfect. Leaf twig cuts everything but very mild Model T2 Rockwell great shave but 120 bucks
I'd recommend the Gillette Heritage over the King C.Gillette: I think they have the same head but the handles differ. I'd also suggest the Muhle R101, R103 or R108 for around $33 to $44 for a decent shaver.
The best for entering wet shaving, IMO the Henson AL13 mild or medium without a doubt. The New Enhanced Edition AL13 razor is probably the smoothest shaver you will ever have with the Leaf Twig a close second. As smooth as the AL13 is, it is quite efficient. I also recommend the AL13 for daily shavers and head shavers. The AL13 is a very unique shave, and try it with Astra greens or Astra Blues, Oh My God ! Your list is solid list Greg ! I am a huge fans of the Twig as well, LOVE IT.
Good question! Sometimes called traditional wet shaving or old school shaving. Typically using classic style shave gear. Soap you lather with water, safety razor, brush to build the lather. It's fun but can get expensive
@@GregTardif whats the biggest difference??? Price wise Isn't it supposed to me cheaper long term??? Only the shaver and razor change right??? Or do i need to change gel for lather??? Or can i use both??? (separately)
Harry's has an 'get to know us offer' where you get some blades, razor handle (which has nice weight to it) & shave cream, which is very nice for just a few bucks - $3 or $5.
I have the King C. Gillette. The best feature about it is that increases shaving noise. I have a Merkur 37C which mutes it. Using King C. Gillette is tricky, it can cut moustache edges if you don't avoid pressure. The cut bleeds profusely...
I have been using King C Gillette with its own razors and now Bluebird and I have been cutting myself more often than not. I have also used LORD L6 which is better value and I still get razor burn and cuts/nicks. How can I improve my technique?
@@GregTardif I couldn’t really pay attention to what you were saying. In a tutorial such as yours background music adds nothing. I bail on any video with it. Best

I've been using a metal/plastic safety razor that I bought from ebay for $3 for the last 5 years. I don't think it has a brand and may have been intended for a cracker jack prize, but anyway, it works great. I have feather blades.
Great list. My only modern one is some Merkur DE thing. Its tiny for my basketball hands. Haven't really bonded with it. I'll have to look into something on the list with a larger footprint.
I have a weird love hate relationship with Merkur 37C. It both gives me the smoothest shaves XTG across the face and the worst shaves with ingrown hair at WTG top to bottom.
I am old enough that a safety razor was really the only optiion when I started shaving. I always thought they were a little over enthusiastically named since it came with something to stop the bleeding.
Baili BR179 Chrome Twist-to Open Safety Razor by Baili Save 41% Original price $8.99 Current price $5.29 These are incredible for the price. Very mild yet reasonable efficient. This listing is from Maggards but available on Amazon and frequently on sale at various outlets including Sterling, Italian Barber, etc. I’ve given away almost a dozen of these in starter kits for friends and family. I’ve not had one person think it was a bad razor. Some would prefer longer handle but for $6 can’t go wrong. Much better than many look-a-likes often in brick and mortar stores.
@@GregTardif very inexpensive way to find out if you’re going to like a DE razor. I was from age 14 until about 3 years ago a Schick Injector user almost exclusively except for Atra carts in the 80s - which I still use when traveling with carry-on.
If you lay a bit more than a King C Gillette you can get either a Muhle R89 (I have the larger grande handle, and it also comes in the twist) or Edwin Jagger DE89 and they have better knurling especially for us southpaws. I think I’d like to try the twig
That’s a good point for sure. I wish those were available to purchase like the king c Gillette is otherwise I’d sign right up for those replacing it on the list
Maybe the 6c but for a beginner I think there might be too big of a learning curve for those razors. These here are plug and play solutions for effective shaves

I make sure that Gillette doesn’t get 1 penny from me ever.
I think the Henson razor in the milder or mid aluminum form would also be a good, durable first razor.
I haven’t tried those yet lol. But I know a lot of beginners like them a lot
I'm going to have to try a Twig. Everyone who has one seems to really like it.
