Shave the Planet: The Ultimate Guide to Eco-Friendly Razors and Shaving Cream
Jump to:
Did you know that, as early as 4000 BC, women used arsenic and other dangerous substances to remove hair from their bodies? They did this to prevent the spread of diseases or harmful animals such as lice and even the ancient Egyptians removed hair from their bodies. They waxed themselves instead of using harmful substances. Both men and women removed all their hair from head to toe but purely for aesthetic reasons.
After World War I, also known as the roaring ’20s, women become more independent and felt freer in their bodies. This was accompanied by the rise of the hair removal industry as bodily hair became the symbol of self-neglect. The marketing of hair removal products increased, beauty salons started to offer hair removal services and new permanent hair removal technologies were developed.
Whether or not you want to participate in this hair removal trend is up to you. I greatly admire women you are confident enough to go au naturel but it is not for me. I would like to remove some of my bodily hair but I want to do that as sustainably as possible.
Alternatives to Shaving
In a world where sustainability is no longer just a trend but a necessity, the quest for eco-friendly alternatives has extended to our daily routines, even to the seemingly mundane act of shaving. The era of disposable razors, with their plastic waste and short lifespan, is making way for a revolution in grooming: eco-friendly alternatives. Embracing this change isn't merely about a guilt-free shave; it's a commitment to reducing environmental impact without compromising on quality. Imagine a shaving experience that not only leaves you feeling refreshed but also leaves behind a smaller carbon footprint. Welcome to the world of eco-conscious grooming, where every stroke is a step towards a cleaner planet.
Stop shaving
Did you know that more and more women are not shaving their armpits these days? About 1 in 5 don't shave and it is undeniable that in the past 2 years, this number has probably risen sharply. Many have embraced their body hair and find it incredibly liberating to be completely themselves. They are done with feeling ashamed of something completely natural and have started to love themselves more the way they are. For them, removing body hair was often something that (male) society expects from female society. By stopping this, they give themselves power and freedom from the weekly (sometimes daily) time-consuming activity.
The decision to stop shaving is a personal choice and may have different benefits for different people:
Saves time: Not shaving can save time in the morning or when getting ready for an event, as there is no need to spend time shaving.
Saves money: Not having to purchase shaving products or shaving equipment can save money in the long run.
Better for the environment: Not shaving reduces the amount of waste generated by disposable razors, electric razors, or other shaving products.
Increases body positivity: Choosing not to shave can be an empowering decision for some people and can help them to embrace their natural body hair.
Reduces the risk of skin irritation and ingrown hairs: Shaving can cause skin irritation, razor burn, and ingrown hairs, which can be uncomfortable and painful. Not shaving can reduce the likelihood of experiencing these issues.
It's important to note that everyone has the right to make their own choices about their body hair and that there is no right or wrong decision when it comes to shaving.
Electric razor
There are several benefits of using an electric razor over disposable razors, including:
Cost-effective: Although the initial investment for an electric razor may be higher than disposable razors, in the long run, they can save you money. Unlike disposable razors that require frequent replacement, electric razors can last for years with proper maintenance, which can help save money over time.
Convenience: Electric razors are convenient to use as they don't require shaving cream or water to operate. They can be used anywhere, including on the go, making them ideal for travelers.
Time-saving: Electric razors can save you time in your daily grooming routine as they are quick and easy to use. Unlike disposable razors that require several passes over the same area, electric razors can complete the job in one or two passes.
Skin-friendly: Electric razors are designed to be gentle on the skin, which can help reduce the risk of nicks, cuts, and razor burns. They are ideal for people with sensitive skin who may experience irritation from disposable razors.
Environmentally-friendly: Electric razors are a more sustainable alternative to disposable razors as they can be used for years, reducing the amount of waste generated by disposable razors. They also do not require shaving cream, reducing the amount of plastic waste generated by traditional shaving methods.
In conclusion, while disposable razors may seem like a more convenient option, electric razors offer a range of benefits, including cost-effectiveness, convenience, time-saving, skin-friendliness, and environmental sustainability.
Epilator
An epilator is not a very popular method to remove hair however, it is the method I have used for years. Using an epilator has several benefits over using disposable razors, including:
Longer-lasting results: Epilators remove hair from the root, which means that hair takes longer to grow back compared to shaving with disposable razors. This means you'll have to use the epilator less frequently than you would need to shave.
Cost-effective: While an epilator may have a higher upfront cost compared to disposable razors, it can save you money in the long run as you won't need to constantly buy new blades.
Reduced waste: Epilators are a more sustainable option as they do not create any waste, unlike disposable razors which need to be disposed of after a few uses.
Fewer ingrown hairs: Epilators can help reduce the occurrence of ingrown hairs, which can be a common problem with shaving using disposable razors.
Suitable for different hair types: Epilators can be used on a variety of hair types, including coarse or fine hair, and can be used on different parts of the body. Disposable razors, on the other hand, can be less effective on coarser hair and may cause irritation in more sensitive areas.
At first, using an epilator may seem like a painful experience, but trust us when we say that the long-term benefits are totally worth it! As you use it more often, you'll notice that your body hair grows back thinner and thinner until some places on your legs might not even have any hair at all. Of course, the initial pain might throw you off the first time but don't worry - the more you use it, the more your body will become accustomed to the sensation. Plus, think of all the time and money you'll save in the long run by not having to constantly replace disposable razors!
Waxing
This is the method I use today for my legs. When my epilator broke I had to consider whether I should buy a new one or go for a different method. I gave waxing a try as there are several benefits of waxing:
Longer-lasting results: Unlike shaving with a disposable razor, waxing removes hair from the root. This means that the results will last much longer than shaving, which only cuts the hair at the surface of the skin.
Smoother skin: Waxing leaves skin feeling much smoother than shaving with a disposable razor. Waxing removes hair and dead skin cells, which can leave the skin feeling softer and smoother.
Reduced risk of cuts and nicks: When shaving with a disposable razor, there is always a risk of cuts and nicks, especially in sensitive areas like the bikini line or underarms. Waxing eliminates this risk because the hair is removed in one swift motion, leaving the skin intact.
Less irritation: Waxing can be less irritating to the skin than shaving with a disposable razor. Shaving can cause razor burn and ingrown hairs, whereas waxing typically results in less irritation and fewer ingrown hairs.
Convenience: Waxing can be more convenient than shaving because it eliminates the need to shave daily or every other day. With waxing, the results can last up to several weeks, depending on the individual.
Overall, while waxing may be more expensive than using disposable razors, the benefits of longer-lasting results, smoother skin, reduced risk of cuts and nicks, less irritation, and convenience make it a popular choice for many people.
I sugar wax my legs which takes some practice and, like epilation, is a bit painful at the beginning (in both cases you pull the hair out, root and all). I, therefore, recommend that you watch several videos carefully and study the technique well. Also, do not start on a sensitive spot on the body, but only do this when you have mastered the technique well. The wrong technique can cause bruises and you don't want that in certain places. Only if you can do your legs well should you continue with the bikini line or armpits if you want to do these too.
By now, I like the use of sugar wax because it guarantees that I only have to do my legs once a month and don't have to worry about it. It does take a while before I have completely done my legs, it takes me about an hour, but after that, I don't have to worry about it for weeks.
In conclusion, there are several sustainable alternatives to disposable razors that can reduce waste and save you money in the long run. Safety razors, electric razors, and waxing are all great options to consider. By switching to one of these alternatives, you can make a positive impact on the environment while also enjoying a better shaving experience. With a little bit of research and some trial and error, you can find the perfect sustainable razor for your needs and start shaving with confidence and peace of mind.
What is wrong with Disposable Razors?
Unfortunately, most razors nowadays are disposable meaning after a few uses, they end up in landfills and contribute to the waste problem. Did you know that each year 5.000 billion (that is 5.000.000.000.000) disposable razor blades are used and disposed of worldwide? This amount is incredible and the fact that we still produce these types of razors is astonishing.
This is completely opposite to the first razor ever made. Gillette’s first razors were made completely recyclable and plastic-free. A little over 50 years ago they decided that adding plastic to their design was a great improvement and to make them disposable as well so people no longer had to change that sharp blade avoiding touching the blade and making it safer to use. Back then, using plastic was innovative and a great step forward. These razors were easy to use and much more convenient as they could be thrown away after use. Back then the impact their choices have on the environment was never even considered as convenience was much more important.
Now we are more aware of how our choices affect the environment we live in. Now we know that razor blades like these are very hard to recycle because they are made of lots of different materials. This is not only plastic, which in itself is hard to recycle, there is also metal and rubber present in a disposable razor. Next to that, they are also hazardous to work with because they are so sharp and therefore often end up in landfills as it is too much work to safely take apart and properly dispose of.
What makes this even worse is that these disposable blades often come individually wrapped in plastic and these individually packed razors are again wrapped in another plastic package. So both the manufacturing of the razor and the packaging require a lot of materials and energy for production.
Fortunately, we now know better and once you know better you can do better. So we know not to use disposable razor blades but there are more reasons to switch to a safety razor.
What are the Benefits of a Safety Razor?
Don't feel like reading? Watch it instead!
It is better for your skin
The first one is the fact that because a safety razor has only one blade, there is less skin irritation, shave bumps, and ingrown hairs that are common with cartridge razors.
If you use a 5 blade cartridge razor and go over an area of your body or face 3 times, you have now exposed one area of your skin to 15 passes of a blade. In comparison, if you are using a safety razor, you are only exposing the skin to one blade each time a blade passes. The fewer times that you use a blade so close to your skin, the less it will be affected and the happier your skin is going to be.
It is cheaper
Yes, the initial investment of a safety razor is high but once you have made that purchase, the costs for a safety razor will be very low. A new blade for your safety razor will cost about 50 cents. This will obviously depend on the brand you choose.
The first year a safety razor might cost you €30 for a new razor and €26 for a new blade each week (€0,50 x 52 weeks). So €56 for the first year but for the next 10 years, a safety razor will costs you only €26 a year as you no longer have to purchase the razor but you only need new blades.
Disposable razors will costs you about 2 euro a piece (again this differs greatly per brand) and a new razor each week will result in €2,- x 52 weeks= €104 euro each year for disposable razors.
These exact same costs will return each year as disposable razors obviously are disposed of and can not be reused so they have to be purchased again.
They are better for the environment
They are more eco-friendly as you could read above, disposable razors create an immense amount of waste worldwide while a safety razor is much more eco-friendly. Once its lifetime is over, which is usually over 10 years long, the razor is completely made out of steel and therefore can be completely recycled.
