I use to have this razor when i was a bit younger. Think this a good razor for young girls that will just start shaving. The aloe strips last for about 5 -7 days, then after about 2 weeks this razor will start missing fine leg hairs of the knees and ankle areas because the blade has a wire that goes over it to protect you from slipping and cutting yourself and because the blades goes blunt it will not 'reach over the wire'. Definitely not a 'close' shave, but helps for not cutting yourself. The price of this product came down a lot - when i first bought this product it was one of the most expensive razors on the market - now its much less and more affordable for what you get.
