A manual razor is a shaving tool that requires the user to manually move the blade across the skin to remove hair. It typically consists of a handle and a replaceable blade, allowing for a close and precise shave. Manual razors come in various designs, including safety razors and straight razors, each offering different levels of control and comfort. Using a manual razor often involves applying shaving cream or gel to soften the hair and protect the skin. This method is popular for its affordability and the ability to customize the shaving experience. Many people prefer manual razors for their eco-friendliness compared to disposable razors.
