I've used a man's simple razor for a few decades now (omg, did I say that?!).

Anyway, age depression aside, the mens work just as well as the women's razor. I've had mine for years.
And I would imagine Brazilians cause havoc even with a man's razor

Why just Brazilians?

Re: Razor Blade refills more expensive than original purchase

I use a wet razor to trim round the edges of my beard. It's difficult to get decent blades, but I managed to buy a bulk pack (20 x 5 blade packs) from Amazon. They're not bad and reasonably priced.

My Wilkinson safety razon that I had since I started shaving, gave up after 40 odd years use. The new one isn't too bad, but I might treat myself to a German 'Mercure' razor.

Talking of disposable items - what about injet carridges?
