Shaves

Discover our curated range of shavettes, the shaving tool for both beginners and experienced shaving enthusiasts who prefer precision and simplicity. Shavettes offer a shaving experience similar to that of a traditional razor but with the convenience of less maintenance.

What is a shavette for wet shaving?
A shavette is a shaving tool that is similar to a traditional razor but uses interchangeable razor blades instead of a fixed blade. It offers the precision and feel of a shave with shaving while also making maintenance easier and eliminating the need for sharpening and grooming your razor. Shavettes are popular among both professional barbers and home users.
Which razor blades can be used?
With a shavette, you can use special single-sharpened shavette blades or standard double-sharpened razor blades that break in half. However, it is important to check compatibility as some shavette models may require specific types of blades. This applies especially to Feather shavettes that require special Feather razor blades.

How should I shave with shavette?
Hold the shavette at the right angle, about 30 degrees to the skin, and use short, light strokes without pressing too hard. Shave with the direction of beard growth to reduce skin irritation.
How should I prepare my skin before wet shaving?
To prepare your skin before wet shaving with a shavette, you should first clean your skin with warm water or a warm towel to open the pores and soften your beard. Then, apply a pre-shave product to reduce friction and protect your skin. Finish by applying a thick layer of shaving foam using a shaving brush to further soften your beard and improve razor blade glide on your skin. Never shave on an area where you don’t have a protective shaving foam.
What do I do if an accident occurs?
If you accidentally cut yourself while shaving with a shavette, the first thing you should do is stop the bleeding by gently pressing a clean and moist alum block or alum stick against the wound. Once the bleeding has stopped, clean the wound with mild antiseptic solution. Avoid further shaving where you have damaged the skin until it has healed.

Can I use my shavette for head shaving?
A shavette is an excellent shaving tool for head shaving. Keep in mind that a shavette, just like a razor, does not have a protective comb between the skin and the razor blade. Therefore, you need to be extra careful when shaving your head. Especially in areas where you have difficulty seeing or reaching.
How do I care for and maintain my shavette?
To maintain your shavette, you should clean it thoroughly after each use with lukewarm water and possibly mild soap. Do not use stronger detergents that can damage your shavette. Dry it thoroughly and store it in a dry place.
How often should I change razor blades? As with a safety razor,
it is recommended that the razor blade is changed after 3-7 shaves.
How should I store my shavette?
Ideally, store your shavette in an angled upwards or vertical position. Preferably in a rack together with, for example, your shaving brush, then you know where you have your shavette and your shaving brush when you need to use it. By storing it in this way, you make it easier for the water to drain off and there is less risk of cross-contamination.
Where do our shavettes come from?
Our shavettes come from manufacturers such as Dovo, Feather, Mr Bear Family, The Bluebeards Revenge and more. Shavingroom has also developed its own shavette in a collaboration with Dovo. The shavette has a fine handle made of precious wood and can be used with most shavette blades and double razor blades.
Who is a shavette suitable for?
We think that a shavette is suitable for everyone, of course. Not least those who may want to try an even closer shave than the one that can be obtained from a safety razor. But at the same time, feel that a razor is too much maintenance and other things. Who want an intermediate step, then shavette is perfect. Although wet shaving with a safety razor is the easiest and simplest, you can sometimes feel that you do not get the closeness that you want. Then shavette is a perfect choice.
What should I consider as a beginner with shavette?
To take it carefully first and foremost. Be aware that you will cut yourself. Make sure to be careful when handling the shavette so as not to cut yourself unnecessarily.
