Not too long ago, I purchased these Tinkle razors (Amazon) for shaving peach fuzz on my face.  My question is - how many times should I use each one before discarding? 

 

I've read some use it once and then discard.  It's still sharp after one use.  I've used the same one several times.   When should I toss it?

 

Do you get stubble using these on the peach fuzz? What is the grow back like?

Wow! I thought I was the only one that did this!

 

LOL!  I've thought that about a few things in the past and would be flabbergasted I wasn't the only one.

 

Shaving exfoliates your face which definitely helps with your complexion.


@monicakm 

Lol! Yes! I started shaving mainly to exfoliate. I'd read that was the reason some men have nice skin. And after buying a couple of tools, for exfoliation, I realized that a razor would do the same thing!😁

@San Antonio Gal   I use these as well and get several uses from each one before it begins to feel like it's dragging.

@SaveTheTurtles  - zero stubble.  Normal peach fuzz grows back.

Re: Question about razors for face shaving...

Question: I have a very small area (about 1/4" circle under my right chin bone) where 6-7 hairs grow together. I've tried tweezing them out, which works nicely. But why doesn't that kill the roots like tweezing eyebrows? I have also used my epilator every 2-3 days, which seems to work best on such a small area. And lastly, I have tried a razor which was my least favorite due to the stubble which grows out within 24 hours!

 

The small 1/4" circle of a dozen hairs has remained through chemo and radiation. Is there something I can do to remove them permanently at home? I doubt anyone else notices them, but they are annoying to me!

I use Bic Soliel on a dry face.

I use Nair for faces. Works well, just don't leave on fort more than * mins or it might irritate your skin. Last a long time too.

Me too ! I typically use the Finishing Touch trimmer and then the Nair for sensitive skin for face .

My skin feels so smooth 😌

I agree that it does last longer and I have no irritation.

@BirkiLady  I have a grouping like that, too...keeps coming back after plucking. I've never heard that tweezing eyebrows kills the roots--and it sure hasn't for me! At 69, I still have fairly thick brows, and still have to pluck a lot of hairs from underneath, and between my brows.
