Yes! Absolutely, a safety razor is great for black men as it reduces the risk of ingrown hairs, irritation and razor burn! Win Win
That depends! If you’re in a barber getting a shave off a professional barber then yes, a straight razor will give an incredibly close shave. If you’re at home and need to shave before work – you won’t have time to use a straight razor but you’ll get a great shave with a safety razor in 10 minutes.
Shaving with a Safety Razor helps to reduce skin irritation, shave bumps, and ingrown hairs that are common with cartridge or electric razors. The main reason is that with a safety razor you only have one blade against your skin at any time as opposed to several and the blade will cut the hair at the level of skin – not below In short – yes, shaving with a Safety Razor is better.
Subject to exceptions, Manly Stuff is happy to exchange or refund your purchase within 28 days of delivery. Your refund will be credited to the original payment card.

There are many benefits to shaving with a safety razor – cheaper shaves, less ingrown hairs and irritation, a very close shave that wouldn’t be achieved otherwise and you’re helping to reduce plastic use.
The best blade for a safety razor comes down to personal choice – different skin reacts differently to different skin types. We recommend an Astra Blade as it’s the best all rounder.
We have many safety razors that are all perfect for all levels – our recommendation would be our Stainless Steel Finger Grip Safety Razor as the knurled grip is excellent for a close shave with great control. The Knight Safety Razor is also a firm favourite with our customers.
