Did you know that over 2 BILLION plastic disposable razors are thrown away each year in the United States? And nearly 100% of those will never be recycled – instead sitting in our landfills (or worse, oceans!) for at least 200 years. That’s a whole lotta trash for a single shave! Unlike the other guys, brand well kept is here to change how we shave, shower, and spa-day – making it better for our bodies, and the planet.
Founded by two badass ladies who noticed that women’s razors were expensive, ineffective, and made of plastic, brand well kept strives to make shaving and bathing more mindful and enjoyable. From their quintessential straight razor, to amazing add-ons like natural shave soap, nourishing post-shave oils, and rejuvenating bath salts (plus all plastic-free packaging!) this brand is going the extra mile to change the way we spa-day!

I feel so much more at ease knowing I’ve switched! This razor is equally as effective as traditional disposable razors. Takes time to get used to the shorter handle size, but this is a great product!

This is my first safety razor coming from store-bought multi-blade razors. I am so glad that I made the switch! The shave is so smooth!
As for this specific product:
I like the weight. It is nice and heavy so its own weight puts the perfect amount of pressure as I shave, but not so heavy that it causes any hand fatigue holding it.
My only drawbacks are I wish the handle had a little more grip as I feel like it is constantly trying to slip out of my grasp and I have had it a few months and I have noticed that the color coating is starting to come off on the head of the razor. I store it away from the shower and ensure it is dry whenever I put it away and I am always careful with it so I don’t know why it’s coming off. It doesn’t detract from the use of the product, but has me worried about future rust and if they might get rough in the future.

Oh my! I was nervous about trying this razor at first, but I absolutely love it. I haven’t had such a close shave previously, and very happy with the low waste. Razor is sturdy, and albeit I do wish the handle was a tad longer, I do not have problems with handling it.

I originally got this razor for shaving my scalp (it would usually take 2 disposable razors each time even after buzzing to get a smooth finish) and quickly transitioned to using it for my legs as well. I love the heft of it and that it’s double-sided so I don’t have to rinse the blade as often.

I just converted from my normal plastic disposable razor and being so tired of the mess, and waste decided to try well kept! The company is amazing. They offer directions and it is a slight change. I can say that if you exfoliate and use gently pressure to shave as normal. Even the next day your skin is still smooth. This is huge! I have pcos and I have felt that nothing I do, can help w the Hair thickening, by the next morning I’d be prickly. But not now. I am so satisfied to support an amazing company. Also the blades aren’t as thick as you would assume so that saves some materials. But they still work fantastic

This was my first time using a safety razor and I was nervous. The experience was a lot better and easier than expected! It works just as well and in some cases better than my old disposable razors. The only issue I have with it is the length of the handle. I’m sure it’s fine if you’re shaving your face, but as a female using this as a disposable razor alternative, the short handle just doesn’t do the trick. If I didn’t intend for this to be a once and done purchase, I would find a safety razor with a longer handle.

Hi there! We are so happy to hear that you’re loving the safety razor life! If you’re able to find an alternative owner for the razor you purchased and the handle length is too bothersome, we have another safety razor with a slightly longer handle 🙂

This razor worked as well as any of the disposable razors I previously used, but it is much more eco-friendly and cost effective (over time). It is a good medium priced safety razor and it feels very high quality. I am very satisfied with my purchase!

I LOVE this product. Easy to use, less irritation after shaving, and can go longer in between shavings.

I bought this for my husband because I was tired of seeing the little pile of plastic, disposables razors he was using. He has not used it yet but he really liked it and like the Idea of a quality razor he can reuse with recyclable blades.

Where do you manufacture your razors? Is it US-made?

Hi Lana! Well Kept, the maker of these razors, is actually a Canadian company. All packaging and accessories are made in Vancouver! However, the razor itself is made in a small factory in China. Well Kept ensures that all labor done abroad surpasses all ethical and sustainability standards, too! 🙂
