Description
After a shave, you feel clean and fresh. But your disposable razor has a dirty secret: it contributes to landfill waste, plastic pollution, and even carbon emissions. And with billions of razors used every year, all that waste creates a negative impact on the environment.
Luckily, there’s a better way to shave. The Twig Razor is simple, sophisticated, and sustainable. Unlike disposable razors, it is made from durable metal that’s designed to last. So you can stop buying new razors every week and keep plastic out of the landfill. Even the metal blades are recyclable, so you can turn shaving into a closed-loop process.
The Twig’s classic straight design makes it easy for you to transition to a safety razor without worrying about nicks and cuts. And the streamlined head gives you extra control for a silky-smooth shave. The precise single-edge blade helps eliminate ingrown hairs and razor burn, making it perfect for sensitive areas. The Twig Razor gives your shaving routine a zero-waste upgrade — helping you care for your skin and the planet.
How to Use
- Open the razor by twisting the bottom of the handle clockwise until the top lifts and twists out of the way
- Load a single-edge blade, lining up the notches on the sides of the blade with the mating feature in the blade holder
- Ensure blade sits flat
- Secure the razor by twisting the bottom of the handle counterclockwise until finger-tight
- Prepare your skin by washing, gently exfoliating, and lathering with shave soap
- Start with softened hairs and open pores, ideally after a shower
- Shave using light pressure, keeping the blade at a 30-degree angle to your skin
- Let the weight of the razor do the work — don’t apply heavy pressure
- Rinse razor frequently with warm water, always keeping the razor and skin damp
- Feel your skin for areas you may have missed and repeat
- For an even closer shave, repeat the process going against the natural direction of hair growth
- Open and rinse razor thoroughly after each use
- Rinse and dry blade before reloading
- Store in a cool, dry place
- Deep clean razor periodically using an old toothbrush

Impact
In the United States alone, 5000 disposable razors are discarded every minute — adding up to over 3 billion every year. This creates huge amounts of pollution from plastic razors, packaging, and carbon emissions. The Twig Safety Razor is completely plastic-free. And unlike disposable razors, it is made to last, so you don’t have to keep buying replacements. You can recycle the metal blades after use. And since they cost just pennies per blade, your investment continues to pay off over time.
