How do you choose the right Merkur razor?
Choosing a closed or an open comb.. it can be a difficult task. If you are a starting wet shaver, a closed comb would be a safer solution than an open comb. If you are already experienced, you can opt for an open comb. Make sure you shave slowly and carefully.
Merkur razors with a closed comb
A closed comb is the most common comb in razors produced today. A shaving head with a closed comb offers extra protection for the man in question. A closed comb razor is perfect for all wet shavers, both beginners and experienced users. It is also the razor most suitable for regular / daily use, because it shaves in a gentler way than an open comb.
Merkur razors with an open comb
Unlike the safety razor (closed comb), an open comb razor has a differently designed shaving head. Instead of the straight bar, the open comb has a row of teeth that extend below the razor blade. A big advantage of the open-comb razor is that you can shave closer to your skin. You need to make fewer movements over your face to get a super smooth result.
What can be a disadvantage of an open comb is that your skin comes into direct contact with the razor blades . This can increase the chance of irritations and / or wounds.
