Why are shaving sets becoming increasingly popular in the bathroom?
On average, you spend 20 minutes in the morning on your daily care and shaving routine. A complete shaving set on the shelf is a pearl in the bathroom. With a shaving set you, as a man, can create your own space in the bathroom. Every day we sell various shaving sets from Edwin Jagger and Muhle. Why? A shaving set is the ultimate shaving tool for the modern man. It is complete: shaving brush, razor, shaving bowl and accompanying holder. The material, colors and design are coordinated. You have your favorite razor and shaving brush immediately at hand.
A shaving set is the ultimate men's gift
If it is your birthday or around Sinterklaas or Christmas, you will of course be asked what you would like as a gift. Men often don't know what they want. 'Pfff, well, just wear socks or underpants' is often the answer. Nice and boring. Next time you ask for a nice shaving set .
Which shaving set should I buy?
There is a huge selection. Enough choice. There are shaving sets with or without a shaving bowl. Or with a classic safety razor or a modern Gillette razor holder for the Mach3 or Fusion razor blades. But how do you choose the right shaving set?
Do you like classic or traditional design? Or are you more of a fan of sleek and modern? The modern classic man has a preference for shaving tackle made of wood, such as Ash wood, Thuja wood or African Black wood. The modern man has his eye on a beautiful designer shaving set, such as the Muhle Stylo or Muhle Hexagon shaving line.
The Mühle Stylo is Mühle's innovative design line. An important feature of this guy line is its ergonomic and futuristic design. The Hexagon shaving brushes and razors range from Muhle was developed in collaboration with the Berlin designer Mark Braun. Hexagon has a unique and contemporary design.
It's a given, we men love metal. Several of Edwin Jagger's shaving sets are made entirely of flawless, shiny chrome-plated metal. The big advantage of chrome is that it is suitable for use in the bathroom and it is easy to keep clean and shiny. After use, rinse the handle and rub it dry with a towel and the chrome will shine again.
An extremely important aspect is the material of the shaving set. Do you prefer natural and honest wood or shiny metal? The handle of various popular Muhle shaving brushes and razors is made of, for example, African Blackwood, Plum Wood, Thuja Wood or Bruyère Wood and chrome-plated metal. The wood is sustainably processed and therefore water resistant. Due to the grain structure of wood, each handle has a unique signature.
What should you pay attention to? Of course, it starts with the choice of razor. Which type of razor do you shave with every day: safety razor, Gillette Mach3 or Gillette Fusion? For the record. Only the flat double edge blades fit in a safety razor. The Gillette Mach3 and Fusion razor holders are suitable for the Mach3 and Fusion razor blades respectively. The Mach3 razor consists of 3 razor blades (3-blade) and a Fusion/Pro Glide razor consists of 5 razor blades (5-blade).
Shaving set with safety razor
The safety razor for the double edge razor is actually the predecessor of the modern multiblade cartridge razors. It is a worldwide universal shaving system. All razor blades from the different brands fit all safety razors. The safety razors in the Edwin Jagger and Muhle shaving sets have a so-called shaving head with a closed comb. These are the most common razors and are therefore suitable for any type of beard growth and skin. You clamp the blades in the shaving head. This shaving head consists of 2 parts. You screw the shaving head to the handle using a screw thread.
The Gillette Mach3 and Fusion razors are very popular. However, many men switch to the safety razor. Why? The separate double edge razor blades for the classic safety razor are dirt cheap. On average, one blade costs €0.30. And it shaves just as well as modern cartridge razors. Shaving with this shaving system is not scary. It takes some getting used to during the first week, but after a few shaves you'll get the hang of it. 99% of our customers who switch to the safety razor indicate that they get a good shave after 1-2 weeks. In fact, practically everyone is enthusiastic about the shaving comfort and shaving result.
Shaving set with Gillette Mach3 razor
The Gillette Mach3 razor is a patented cartridge razor system from Gillette. The Mach3 blade consists of 3 blades and a sliding strip. You click the blade into the Mach3 razor holder. The click system with the small black plastic button is a Gillette patent. The handle was designed and produced by Edwin Jagger of Muhle.
The advantage of a shaving set with a Gillette Mach3 razor is that the Mach3 blades provide an easy, efficient and comfortable shave. Because the razor contains multiple blades, you have even pressure distribution on the skin and you get a close shave in one go. The blades move smoothly over the skin and curves of your face.
Shaving set with Gillette Fusion razor
The Gillette Fusion razor is also a popular cartridge razor system from Gillette. The Fusion blade consists of 5 blades and a sliding strip. There is also a blade on the back of the razor. You can also click this razor blade into the Fusion razor holder. The Gillette Fusion razor blades for the shaving set with the Gillette Fusion razor are available everywhere. There are different types of Fusion blades for sale. All these blades fit perfectly into the click system of the Fusion razor.
