Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I used to buy Harry’s kits from Costco but I felt like I was wasting so much money and plastic. I just wanted new blade cartridges, but the stupid box always came with a new handle. Looking now, it seems like Costco only offers an updated “chrome” set which is even more expensive 🙄
Eventually I found Henson and I really love mine. This is the exact color I got:
I’ve had it for maybe 4-5 years now and besides some scratches from an accidental drop it’s still in great condition. I love that I went from buying ~$25 cartridge boxes every couple months to buying 100 blades for $10 every few years. I only just recently bought my first blade refill box and I expect it to last until probably 2029.
Literally the only time I have given a YouTube video sponsored ad a good was when Henson ran a promotion with We're In Hell. Still haven't needed a refill on the original 100 blades and I think that was 3 years ago at least. No regrets.
Henson safety razors are amazing.
