Henson Shaving Razors Are the SECRET to a SMOOTH Shave

[@LearningAndGrowingInLife]

I ditched the Gillette Proglide razor for the Henson AL13 medium and it's been great. Thanks for the vids that helped me make the transition.

[@OhioShaves]

Great to hear! Thanks for your support, brother

[@jefflongon]

I have been using my Henson after watching your earlier videos and I have never been happier.

[@OhioShaves]

Great news, thanks for sharing my friend

[@klondike460]

Love and appreciate your videos - I use a Henson with a Voskhod...best shave for me. Love the Henson - I have the mild and medium. I initially purchased the medium, but contacted Henson to see if i could return it and get the mild as it was slightly more aggressive to my liking. They told me to keep the medium and shipped me a mild free of charge. I couldn't believe that level of customer service! Great razor AND great customer service.

[@OhioShaves]

That is so good to hear. I like working with Henson as well. Very nice people over there

[@jeffpalmer9149]

My Henson is my top razor. As long as I don't press too hard and take my time I tend to get a perfect shave. It is nice and mild for those times you have a blemish or a bit of razor burn show up. If I only had one razor this would be it. The Timeless AL Slant does run a close second and feels almost like the Henson but it is a little more aggressive and like you said you get more perfect shaves with the Henson. However I will say I am very impressed with Timeless. They almost came in a took the top spot. Thanks again for a great video.

Great tips for the Henson. I have the medium AL 13 and your tip about not flicking your wrist was spot on. I realized that if your shoulder head is moving up while shaving the neck ATG you aren't flicking the wrist. The mirror tells you whether your doing it right. Love your vids.

Thanks for the love! Sounds like you’re nailing that technique! Keep rocking that AL 13!

Had my first shave with the Henson Al13+ today. It was my first shave with a de razor. I am very impressed with the Henson. I still have to work on the pre shave, soaps and creams as all I currently have is Barbasol spray foam. I ordered an omega brush and a Proraso kit and will be trying that next with the Henson.

thanks for the tips. I've been using Henson Aggressive for a month, and I've tried many blades until i finally found the perfect blade that suits it. got BBS with perma sharp, and even the referee (the wife) told me my face was very smooth. I got BBS with 6s and persona comfort coated. I think I have to try different blades for my other razors (will take some times coz i only change the blade every 3 weeks/month😅😅😅

Henson was my first and still a fav. One thing I would point out about the weight. For us older guys or those with arthritis, the light weight of the Henson is a god send. While I also really like my Rockwell T2, there are days it is just god awful heavy. So what I am saying is that the Henson, overall, is a damn good razor. Keep these videos coming brother!

[@OhioShaves]

Reads like you've got a great set up for your face and skin type

[@Kenoji8]

Henson is a pretty innovative company with a razor that has good aesthetics. If I'm not recommending the Rockwell 6C to beginners, then I'm recommending a Henson. I did have to go to a Mild because I discovered through more shaves with other razor blades that my skin is more sensitive than I knew (even though the Medium was still quite amazing). I still think switching out the aluminum handle for something slightly heavier makes the shave even better based on what you're after, though. Still, this is an amazing razor that provides a great shave time and time again with very little maintenance and technique. You just put this thing to your face with light pressure and just shave, and that is what every beginner needs in an introduction to traditional wet shaving.

[@OhioShaves]

Well said

[@brianglendenning1632]

I started with a Henson mild, just purchased a 6C as something different. All part of learning.

[@OhioShaves]

@@brianglendenning1632 That's a nice step up. The Rockwell has a great smooth feel that I love on setting 6 with a personna blade

[@brianglendenning1632]

First shave with 6C, 3 plate, Gillette Pt blades with Proraso shave cream. Smooth nick-free shave. Perhaps over-thinking it, but I was very conscious to hold the right angle knowing the 6C was not as set-and-forget as the Henson, and listened to change in noise as the angle changed to set a good angle. Always used TOBS cream before - the Proraso was good but not as slick or nice smelling as TOBS. Thanks for the videos on the 6C - influenced my purchase of what seems to be a very nice 2nd DE razor, at half the price of my Henson.

I really love my Henson Razor, I've been using my medium aluminum for head shaving. i really like how much growth. I can take down then my leaf razor and my titanium Henson mild, I've really enjoy shaving my face

[@OhioShaves]

Great setup

[@derfman1963]

I found out about Henson from Joe Scott, but I became sold on them from Ohio Shaves. I got into DE shaving because of this razor and love it. Now even though I really like the Henson, it is relegated to under my nose and trimming my brows. For most of my shaving I use a Leaf razor with two blades. The third blade was doing nothing for me except waste a half of a blade. I shave my whole head and face with the Leaf and finish with the Henson. Now as far as the Henson is concerned, I tried lots of blades including Feather and Astra. I decided to stick with the blades that came with the Henson. RKs are very comfortable and not too expensive. They work great with the Henson. And now the real reason I came to this video is because I wanted to share my experience shaving with Dove soap. It works great. In fact, it seems to me to be better on my head then any of the shaving soaps or creams that I have tried. I tried a shaving brush, but my skin is too sensitive and I ended up tossing it. Thanks for all the great videos you do. They are the best shaving videos on KZbin.

Got the variety pack of blades couple days ago. Decided to shave all my facial hair off so that I'd have more area to test the blades. I used a Feather blade with the 6 plate on the 6C to remove 6 months of growth. Boy oh boy, I had quite a few nicks and cuts. Had a couple that the alum block couldn't stop. Lots of stinging, but that was expected removing that much. I'll probably get that razor that takes the half blades for doing around my mouth and such in the future. Of course using your links.

Hi Ohio what setting(No, of plate) would you compare the Henson Al13 Medium to Rockwell 6c?

[@OhioShaves]

Great question, but not the easiest to answer. It's a totally different set up than the Rockwell. What I have found is every manufacturer has a different type of feel on your face. Some feel silky, smooth, others have a little more blade view, and then there is some that are very aggressive on your face. The Henson Razor is for people wanting to learn technique which intern gives you a perfect achieve regardless of how many passes you may take. I had to put a plate number on it. I would say 4

if there's a feeling of suction or dragging, try adding more water to your lather. A hydrated lather makes it much smoother

[@OhioShaves]

I would try different blade. If it's not cutting smoothly, that means that the blade is not adequate for your face and hair type. What blade are you currently using? A artisan shaving soap is definitely going to be a slicker surface than shaving cream in a can. You really can't rush this process and get a perfect shave. Preparation and letting the shaving soap soften up the hairs on your face is key to getting a smooth, comfortable shave.

@@OhioShaves Thank you for replying sorry for confusing you with the question earlier thank you again appreciate it

Sadly the Henson never worked for me. As you said, you need the right angle or it doesn’t cut. Was not efficient for me.

[@OhioShaves]

I've found that with some practice and patience, I can get a really good shave. But I understand it's not for everyone.

[@Hacky2447]

Biggest issue I have with the AL13 mild I purchased is that I struggle to keep it at the right angle to cut the hair. Only razor I have this issue with. Second issue I have is that it’s just a bit too mild for me. If I go longer than one day growth it will take multiple passes. Unlike my Parker semi-slant single pass and done. So unless I am shaving every day I rarely use it. On a side note. Henson should allow people to buy just the more aggressive razor head instead of having to buy a whole second razor.

[@OhioShaves]

Are you going for a OnePass shave? Have you tried other double razor blades in the Henson because I just love the fact that I don't get the correct angle it does not cut. Great learning tool and I get more perfect shaves using this razor than anything else in my shave Den

[@Hacky2447]

@@OhioShavesyeah I tend to look for single pass shaves. My face is super sensitive, so multiple passes make my face very red and broken out. I have tried a few different blades in it. Right now my favorite blades across the board for all my razors is the USA made personna blues.

[@OhioShaves]

Great blades

@@Hacky2447 Do you use an Alum block? I always had irritation until I stopped using an Alum block, turns our the Alum caused the irritation. There are report from others at Reddit.

Can you can you copy and paste me a link?

@OhioShaves i like the T 2 but 150 dam that's steep. I really enjoy ur channel and would like ur take on this VIKING razor.

[@OhioShaves]

I really don’t care for Viking razors. I would spend a couple more bucks and get a Rockwell 6C. It’s the cats meow when it comes to a smooth shave for a razor under $60. It has adjustable plates and I’ve made a ton of videos about how well this Razor shaves. This Razor made me a better shaver and I’m sure it will for you as well.
