I have never used a razor like this before, so when I opened the package, I wasn't quite sure about how to get the razor blade into the handle. I finally figured it out and to be honest it is VERY easy, but some instructions would have been nice. For the shave, I have mixed feelings. I am a weirdo that shaves every day. Like EVERY day. I can't sleep well if I don't shave. So, having said that, understand that I am no newbie to this. I am impressed with how smooth my legs were after using this razor, it does work well. But, there are a couple of issues...
.I know this sounds odd, but because I have never used a razor of this type before, I was (and still am) unsure of the best 'angle' to use it, so some tips or pointers regarding this could be helpful. Lastly, the biggest problem comes from the term 'safety'. That, my friend, it is not. I sliced the shiz-nit out of the back of my ankle and the bumpy part right below my knee. On both legs.
Basically, I find that it is great to use on the 'straightaways', ie, your calf and shin, but NOT on anything with any curve to it. Be careful, you will have great, smooth legs that are speckled with painful scabs :(
