Razors for Women (Teens)

Random present I know, but my daughter has been using my Gillette Fusion 5 razor (only the stem, she uses her own blade!), but I figured I might as well get her one for herself. I've always used the mens' one just because I thought it was cheaper, but are they any good women's ones out there that I can get her for a similar price. Would prefer 5 blades like the Gillette Fusion.

Personally I use the boots max mens system (which comes in 3 & 5 blade variants) which is substantially cheaper than the gilette equivalent. They also do a women's option "smooth care system" which has a 5 blade head.
Looks to be £5.99 for 4 heads and £5 for the handle.

I've always found the men's to be cheaper than the women's (i.e. pink) version of any razors. I'd say ask her if she's bothered what colour or what the packaging says, and if not just go with what you know

Totally agree - I'm also convinced the mens blades are sharper / better quality.Spoonie_Turtle said:I've always found the men's to be cheaper than the women's (i.e. pink) version of any razors.
