Henson Shaving Reviews

i got this razor from hensonshaving.com, and it shaves okay, but rinsing it has been more annoying than i expected. hair and soap seem to get stuck easily, so i end up tapping it a lot or spending extra time holding it under the water. maybe it works better for other people, but for me it just slowed the whole shave down. i was hoping for something simple and quick, and that part didn’t really feel that way

I was kind of in a rush when I bought this and almost talked myself out of it because the handle costs more upfront. But the cheaper blades are already making it feel worth it. Glad I went with it.

I ordered a razor from Henson and it did arrive in good shape, so I don’t really have any major complaints there. The packaging was solid and nothing was damaged. The only thing was the shipping felt kind of slow, and the tracking didn’t update much for a few days, which was a bit annoying because I wasn’t sure where it was. Not sure how to explain it, but the whole process just felt a little less smooth than I expected. Overall it was fine, just not amazing.

The razor itself works fine, and my brother even said it seemed decent when he tried it. The frustrating part was the customer service. I had a question and it took way too long to get a response, plus I had to follow up twice. When they finally replied, the answer was short. Not the worst experience, but definitely annoying when you’re just trying to get some help.

I really wanted to like this razor, but the handle length just doesn’t feel right for me. It’s shorter than what I’m used to, so I keep having to adjust my grip while shaving. The shave itself is fine, but holding it feels awkward, especially around my neck. Maybe it’d work better for someone with smaller hands, I’m not sure. For the price, I expected it to feel a little more comfortable. It’s not terrible, just not a great fit for me.

The site looks nice and clean, but I felt kind of mentally drained by the time I found the razor I wanted. I had to keep clicking around just to compare things, and some of the details felt tucked away in random spots. Checkout itself was fine, but the whole process wasn’t as simple as I hoped it would be

The razor definitely feels well made and it gives a really close shave, so I wanted to like it. But after a few uses, my neck got red and itchy every time. I even tried using less pressure, because everyone says that fixes everything with razors, but it didn’t really help. Maybe my skin is just picky, but for the price, I expected way less irritation

I was expecting it to feel a bit more solid for the price, uh, but it just doesn’t quite have that sturdy feel I was hoping for. It shaves alright, so no big complaint there, but the finish and overall build feel kind of light to me.

The shave itself was fine, no real complaints there. But for a basic razor, the price feels kind of crazy to me. Maybe I’m missing something, but it just doesn’t seem like it should cost that much.

I really wanted to like this, but mine felt a little off when it arrived. The website made it seem like the finish and machining would be really clean, so I was a bit confused when I noticed the blade didn’t sit perfectly even and there were a few tiny marks on the edges. It still shaves fine, but for the price I expected better. Maybe I just got a bad one.

Am I missing something here? Some of the blades fit just fine, but others don’t seem to fit at all. It’s a bit frustrating because I expected them to be consistent.

I bought this thinking it would be a simple upgrade, but it ended up feeling a lot more aggressive than I expected. The blade felt way too exposed from the first shave, and even when I went slowly and barely used any pressure, I still kept getting nicks around my neck. I’m sure it might be fine for people who like that kind of setup, but for me it was uncomfortable and didn’t feel worth the price. After a few tries, I just stopped using it.

I gave it a couple weeks, but i could never get a close shave with it. Even after going over the same spots a few times, I could still feel stubble right away. Maybe other people have better luck, but I started wondering if mine was just not working right or if the hype was a little too good to be true

I really wanted this razor to work out, but it just kept clogging on me. Even with short stubble, I was rinsing it after almost every pass, and half the time it still didn’t really clear out. It turned what should’ve been a quick shave into something slower and kind of irritating. For the price, I guess I just expected it to handle hair better, especially because... I don’t know, it seems like that should be the main thing. Not for me.

I thought it was doing a decent job the first couple of shaves, and I was hopeful. But after using it again recently, my ingrown hairs started coming back just like before. It shaves okay, but based on my latest experience, it didn’t really solve the main issue for me

I've been using the Henson for a few weeks now, the biggest thing for me is how much quicker my shaves are. It doesn't really drag, so I'm not sitting there going over the same spot again and again, which is exactly why I wanted something like this in the first place. It did take me a couple shaves to figure out the right angle, but I feel like that's fair with any new razor. Once I got used to it, it definitely saved me time in the mornings. I'm giving it 4 stars because cleaning it out can be a little fiddly, but overall I'm glad I bought it.

I’ve been using this for about a week now, and so far I’m happy with it. Right from the first shave, it felt comfortable in my hand and was easy to control. After a couple of mornings using it, I noticed the shave was smooth without much effort. Nothing fancy, just a solid, easy shave that feels good to use.

I tried using this to shave my head, and from what I remember, it just took way too many passes to get everything smooth. I also kept finding missed spots around the back afterward, which got annoying quickly. It does feel well made in the hand, so I’ll give it that, but based on my experience, it’s just not the right fit for me

I don’t have the patience for a product that leaves me all cut up. I used it and still ended up with nicks and cuts, which was really frustrating.

I really wanted to like this, but it just didn’t handle my coarse beard well at all. It kept dragging, missed a bunch of hairs, and I ended up having to finish the shave with my old razor anyway. I also reached out hoping for some help or advice and never got any follow-up, which was frustrating...
