One Blade Shaver’s Guide | how I use it to get the perfect shave

[@jaybirdjayt5037]

This guy is a battle-tested pro. I really like his process of getting to the facts on these razors.

[@averageguytested]

Thanks, Jay👍🏽

[@jorgerios8472]

This man made I don’t know how many videos on the one blade where he basically says the same thing. Think 1 to 2 videos we kinda get it you love it.

[@averageguytested]

Jorge Rios and why did you watch said videos? 😂

[@TheLeylander]

Love your videos Tony they are very useful and well presented , I have psoriasis on my face for 40 years shaving has always been painful and a ordeal and the oneblade has been brilliant since I purchased and used it , now I don't dread shaving again. Thank you 👍

[@averageguytested]

Hey, Andrew! I’m happy to hear that OneBlade has be helpful to you! Thanks for watching and stay tuned - I just picked up the new OneBlade 360, which has a rotating head. I’m excited to review that later this week. 👋🏽

[@TheLeylander]

@@averageguytested Thank you once again Tony and I will sir , and i like your videos that much I've subscribed 👍 .

[@terratrekker2]

Mine came in the mail today... Charged it and this is by far the best personal grooming item ever.

[@averageguytested]

I agree👍🏽 enjoy!

[@uria702]

I love the one blade. It really gets the closest possible shave without ingrowns or irritation. It’s the best shaving product I’ve ever purchased.

[@averageguytested]

I agree 100%

[@psions555]

I had to suffer terrible ingrown hairs and acne from close shaves (despite being done carefully and treated with products) or I had to suffer stubble trimmers making mess and not making me look as neat. Been wet shaving with the Oneblade for years and also body hair and it's a godsend 👍🏻

[@67spankadelik]

Because of you I bought one of these and I also love it! I tried something different the other day. I took a small beard brush and brushed the whiskers against the grain and then came in with the Oneblade. Talk about close! Brushing the whiskers stand them up so they're more accessible to the Oneblade. I followed that with a single pass with a safety razor and barely felt any feedback. Rubbed some heavily mentholated after shave and didn't feel any stinging whatsoever. You should give it a try if you haven't already.

[@averageguytested]

Sounds like a plan!

[@ryosaeba3942]

Great review man, the charging in the pro version is also quite faster (1 hour against 8 hours of the one blade) and last longer (60 min against 45 min of the one blade)

[@averageguytested]

Thank for watching! I really love One Blade and the PRO model is sweet!

[@tipoomaster]

I got a Durablade, maybe this is better but that one just doesn't seem to save me any time over regular shaving, between going over areas more than once to get everything and pausing to let it cool down, and also leaves skin dryer than shaving. But, it stayed because it's not a big investment and it's good for when I've really let my stubble go to lengths a razor gets draggy on. Ymmv with all shave products for sure!

[@averageguytested]

I hear you. I like One Blade for the simplicity and ease. But I don’t need a super clean shave everyday.

[@jeffzest8393]

Should not shave over lips. I did with OneBlade and cut them, although no blood and not initially noticed. More than months out and still not fully healed. Called Philips and, without letting them know of my experience, instructed not to shave over lips or could cut yourself. Now I was shaving left to right. So do not know if that was the problem or whether multiple passes and pressed too hard, or just sensitive skin (also cut my neck one time) But advise not to shave over lips.

[@averageguytested]

I would agree. I was just showing you my experience- and I always use light pressure. Thanks for watching 👋🏽

[@Box545x39]

Just ordered one. I've always been prone to irritation the day or two after shaving so I can't shave again or it gets worse, so hopefully this can help.

[@averageguytested]

Let me know how this works for you.

[@Box545x39]

@@averageguytested Tried it out a few days ago, today is day 2 after shaving and have zero razor burn or bumps, no ingrown hairs or stinging. Absolute game changer for me. It shaves close enough for me, couldn't be happier. Thanks for the vids it really sparked me to get one.

[@MrPetrello]

@@Box545x39 Do you use OB on consecutive days or every 3 or 4 days ?

[@Box545x39]

@@MrPetrello Usually every 2-3 days since that comment 8 months ago, and it works amazing. I just replaced the blade head for the first time, the dull one started snagging a few hairs if I went too fast, but I got prolly 6-7 months from a blade.

[@DJY2K4LYFE]

I using the one blade with a wet shave and some soap came out very “razor” like. Very close and clean.

[@averageguytested]

Sweet👍🏽

[@user-iz4kw8re9e]

So no need for razor then?

[@bryanjonathanwilliams6073]

Doing a wet shave with the OneBlade, gives me a much closer and smoother shave than using it dry, very much comparable to a cartridge razor.

[@TCP2k10]

[@averageguytested]

[@cow77cow]

I love it, because I don't shave every day, more like every two weeks. This blade is better with longer beard, where the normal razr just struggled. @@averageguytested

[@seanmccloskey1981]

Another top video Tony. Love both of those razors. The One Blade appears to have come down in price here in the UK although the blades are still a good bit more expensive than I would like them to be. Finding the Gillette sensor is becoming harder here although they do sell the blades. Thanks again and have a good weekend

[@averageguytested]

Thank you!! Have a great weekend too! Amazon is the great equalizer these days - no?

[@jmthebigman]

Ive decided to get it after watching your video's. Only question; what gives a better result; shaving wet or dry?

[@averageguytested]

Dry

[@bryanjonathanwilliams6073]

For me using it wet gives me better results

[@combosLOL]

Does the one blade collect the hair in the razor or does it fall into the sink?

[@averageguytested]

It falls in the sink or in the shower. It’s waterproof

[@BRETTJEFFERS]

The brush is nice thanks for showing how to clean it up

[@averageguytested]

No probs! Make sure to let it dry on its side or bristles down so water has a place to drain out.

[@roycehammond4061]

I need to try that Phillips razor and I bet it feels good

Great review just got the pro. So glad it works well on the Adams apple as mine sticks out like mount everist.

[@averageguytested]

Use it in style! Happy New Year!

[@Neo_The_One_]

Pro tip. The Razor has blades on the top and bottom. So there is no need to flip it when you want to shave in the opposite direction. Shave up and then down in the same pass. Dont lift the razor off of your face and you can shave in both directions in one stroke.

[@averageguytested]

Yes I know, but I’m not a fan of the back stroke since OneBlade is designed to cut against the grain. You’re just wasting energy with your suggested technique- thanks for watching 👋🏽

[@ElementalHeroJoe]

How long does the shaving head last before needing to replace?

[@averageguytested]

About 4 months - using it an average of three times a week. Thanks for watching 👋🏽

[@photosmithy]

Hi bought one of these, been a single blade safety razor user for years. Used it today, definitely an comfortable shave but my 5 day growth wasn't shaving off as easy as yours. The blade seems to have a very smooth coating on it. Have I missed a trick in its setup. Thanks

[@averageguytested]

The trick with One Blade is to shave against the grain. You’ll also need to give it a couple of shaves to get your beard acclimated to the blade. At the end of the day tho- it will never cut as close as a DE or traditional cartridge razor, but it’s a great tool for quick casual shaves, ripping off long stubble and beards, edging and trimming, etc.

[@photosmithy]

@@averageguytested got to admit it passed the ultimate test ie my 5 year olds daughter's 'dad your face is scratchy' so I'm very pleased with it.

[@jezk1010]

I also just started with One Blade and I'm loving it but I did notice that it is MESSY. Hairs flying off everywhere. Any thoughts on that? The side trimmer on my electric shaver was cleaner. Hairs fell down :-) :-)

Use it in the shower 🚿 #Boom!

[@dfgjyt789]

I have a realy strong beard couse I go against the hair with the blade my hole life and I hate shaving. U think OneBlade will help the strong beards.

[@averageguytested]

Yes, the stronger the better.

[@bilalsiddique5539]

Which of these two is the best

[@averageguytested]

I’d go with the original One Blade - the PRO Model is nice to have, but is a bit more expensive.

[@yasiraltaf0]

i really liked ur all videos relating to one blade ...but before buying just want to ask one thing is that one blade trimmer good enough to use after 2 days shave like we do to go for office etc ...hope u got my point ...

[@averageguytested]

I’d say yes. Use it like a traditional shaver. It takes a few shaves to get the hang of it. Remember to shave against the grain and use light pressure and you’ll be good to go👍🏽

[@yasiraltaf0]

theMediaMart bcz i haven’t seen ur video that u shaving after 2 days shave that can give a better idea either is it good enough that u can shave after 2 days and get a clean good look ...

[@averageguytested]

Oh. Yes - it’ll work whenever. I use it for cleanup shaves all the time.

[@yasiraltaf0]

theMediaMart is it possible if you can make one short video to use that one blade trimmer after 2 days shave so that i can what result we get if we shave after every 2 days

[@averageguytested]

Sure.

[@kevinperez7555]

I think one blade is perfect for thick and overdue beards... I was expecting a good/ decent foil shave to get rid of two day stubble and it’s definitely not built for that level of smoothness in my opinion. Great tool depending on your needs basically.

[@averageguytested]

You are 100% correct 👍🏽

[@yasiraltaf0]

so all u r saying its not for a person who shave almost every 2 days like office going guy ...right?

[@kevinperez7555]

yasir altaf Yes, if you shave every two days you’re better off with the Andis Pro Foil. That works wonders for close stubble and leaves me smooth pretty fast. You might have to get like one or two whiskers with a razor, but it does amazing. Trust me, I have used an expensive machine like the Panasonic Arch 5 and still thought my Andis Pro Foil our performed the Arch 5.

Does the one blade pro shave closer than the one blade?

[@averageguytested]

No. Same.

[@martincarlsson4304]

Is it really nickfree? I bought the Remington durablade after watching your video on it. Im having hard time using it and usually nick me each time im using it and blood starts to pour. Ive tried to hold it different angles and such but its hard and the fear of getting nicked is constant. I really love to stop using shavecream and water when im shaving so looking for a replacement and wonder if oneblade will nick med like the durablade do. What do you think?

[@averageguytested]

One Blade is amazing. You may be pressing too hard with the DURABLADE tho.

As a trans woman I need to shave very close every day so before I got my oneblade I had to deal with a lot of irritation. Since switching to the oneblade followed by a second pass with a traditional razor I'm able to keep my face very smooth daily without tearing up my skin or eating up tons of my time. This plus the fact that it's also quick and effective on body hair really makes it ideal for my situation.
