How to sharpen the razor effectively and inexpensively

According to unofficial statistics, on average, every month, Vietnamese men have to change their razors once. If a Gillette razor costs about VND 20,000 / piece, every year Vietnamese men spend a lot of money on taking care of themselves. However, there is a way you can use the razor forever and not wear.

The first thing you need to do is to have a pair of jeans, old or new, that can be used. You put jeans on a hard surface (table surface, floor). Then you move the razor in the direction from the bottom to the top of the jeans, you do so about 15 times.

Continue to move the razor in the opposite direction about 15 times. It is important to note that the "sharpening" direction of knives on jeans must be the opposite of the direction you use to shave. Since this is how you sharpen the razor, not grinding the pants, the force of use does not need to be too strong, just give it a little quick hand.

When shaving several times, small curves appear on the surface of the blade. The threads on the jeans will make the curves on the blade straighten, making the blade sharper. For a blade that is almost completely blunt, you can make them more efficient by grinding and grinding on your jeans 50 to 100 times in both directions as instructed above.

The author of this tutorial has carried out the "maintenance" of the razor blade in the above manner and for 8 months it is not necessary to replace the new razor blade. And instead of having to cut the pants from the closet every time, cut a piece of the pipe from the old jeans and put it in the same compartment with the razor box, doing so will save you a lot of money by grinding the knife. Shave "this way" this.
