Attention, le déballage des lames de rasoir requiert toute votre attention.

Good Product for thick hair

I purchased these blades (along with some Derby blades) a few days after receiving my Merkur long-handled safety razor.Because of new job opportunities, I had to return to shaving after growing out and wearing a full beard for over a year. I dislike conventional shaving so much that it was one of the several reasons why I've grown out my beard in the past.When deciding to shave off my beard again, I promised myself I would make shaving more enjoyable than I'd experienced with those useless cartridge and electric razors I've wasted my money on. Of course, my research led me to wet-shaving with a double edge safety razor.I was apprehensive to use these blades at first. I'd read so many reviews about these being "ninja sharp" and "not for beginners" I was willing to wait patiently as I retaught myself how to shave. I was developing my technique and getting comfortable with the Derby blades all while the Feathers sat on the shelf.Finally, after a 5 or 6 shaves with the Derby, I put a Feather Hi-Stainless.It was the best move I've made since I started shaving again.These blades are so sharp, so smooth, so effective at cutting through my beard. Just to double check, after about 2 weeks using the Feather blades, I tried another Derby blade to see if I could get comparable results. I simply couldn't. After 2 or 3 dragging, tugging, pulling cuts with a (new) Derby blade, I put back in the Feather and may never use another brand of blades again.Don't be put off by the "not for beginners" hype and paranoia surrounding these blades. On your first ever day of learning how to drive, did you wrap your dad's car around a telephone pole at 90 mph? Probably not. Take your time, focus on your technique, prepare your face and your lather, and you'll be ok. I haven't cut myself once with these blades.One comment said these blades rusted. They don't rust. Feather applies 2 very generous dabs of wax to the blades to hold them onto the wax-paper wrapper, and after the frequent rinsing and reacting with your shaving soaps/creams/oils, the WAX on the outside of the Feather blades starts to oxidize/change colors, and it can be misconstrued as rust. The wax doesn't affect the shave at all.These blades are very high-quality and I'm glad I started using them to shave. They've been a very good investment and I will continue to use them for as long as I can.
