Hi to all,
Cartridge razors, is definitely the most commonly used tool for shaving nowadays.
I am wondering why did at the time people decide to adopt cartridge razors rather than any other solution.
Does anybody recall or know what happened?
I am born in '69, so I can recall how we went from one blade cartridge razor to multi blade cartridge, but know nothing of what happened before that.
Why did people prefer the cartridge razor over the more efficient DE for example?
Was it pricing? Ease of use? Marketing?
How did the transition happen? What was commonly used for shaving previously?
I understand why people switched from straight razor shaving to other tools for example. The former needs more skills, more material and more time.
But I can't understand what process led the majority to use expensive, less efficient multi blade cartridge razors today.
Thank you in advance for your input.
