The composition and principle of the razor
Razors generally consist of a cutter head and a hoe-shaped knife holder. The knife holder is made of aluminum, stainless steel or copper, plastic, rubber, etc. The knife head is made of blade and plastic rubber. The blade is generally made of stainless steel or carbon steel. In order to ensure the sharpness and durability of the razor, the cutting edge will be treated with special materials . In order to ensure smooth shaving, the cutter head generally contains a lubricating strip that acts as a moisturizer and calms down. When in use, the cutter head is installed on the knife holder, and the shaving can be carried out by holding the handle of the knife holder.
First of all, the most important thing about a razor is the blade. There are three points to pay attention to when choosing the blade.
One is the quality of the blade, the other is the number and density of the blade, and the third is the angle of the blade. In terms of quality, the cutting edge of the blade needs to have enough toughness and as little resistance as possible to ensure smooth shaving and durability. The blade coated with artificial diamond can well achieve this goal.
In terms of quantity and density, it is necessary to achieve a good balance. Increasing the quantity can reduce the number of reshaves, but it may cause discomfort by pulling the skin. Increasing the density can reduce traction friction, but too dense will cause easy blockage between the blades , not easy to clean. Therefore, generally speaking, the combination of five blades can better coordinate this balance; from the point of view, a good contact angle can not only make veneers smoother, but also avoid damage to the skin. The blade arrangement is currently more advanced design.
Second, the design of the blade before and after it contacts the skin also plays a vital factor in a good shave.
Before the blade touches the skin, the razor needs to be able to slightly flatten the area where the blade touches the skin to generate a certain tension, allowing the roots to stand up. At the same time, the razor fits the surface of the skin more easily and smoothly to shave the roots without scratching the skin. Thus, it is possible to fully shave in one shave, reduce the number of re-shaves, and protect the skin from excessive damage. For example, a soft protective sensor fin made of soft ultra-thin material is added under the razor. When it gently slides over the skin, it can slightly pull the skin, make the roots stand up, and massage the skin.
After the blade is shaved, good lubrication protection measures are required, such as a razor with lubricating strips. This creates a lubricating fluid immediately after shaving that protects the skin, reduces stinging and irritation, and is extra lubricated when reshaving.
