3x Better hydration.
Henson left skin more hydrated post-shave. Cartridge razors caused significantly greater damage to the skin barrier.

We machine the Henson Razor at our aerospace facility in Canada.
The Henson Razor is made to AS9100 standards. Buy once, use for life.
The Henson Razor is a proven product, with over 700,000 sold around the world.
In 2020, two machinists looked at both the multi-blade and traditional safety razors on the market, and saw glaring shortcomings in their designs.
They had spent years machining aerospace components, solving manufacturing challenges nearly every day, and thought: “We could make a better razor.”
They made the Henson Razor.
Many multi-blade \"features\" create the very irritation they claim to solve, while ignoring the basics like holding the blade rigid.
Each upgrade exists to fix the problems the last one caused, and when a razor is built to sell cartridges, irritation isn't a failure. It's a business strategy.
By clamping the blade rigidly at a fixed 30° angle, Henson focuses on shaving effectiveness.
Since less cutting efficiency is lost to blade flex and movement, the shave requires less force, which means less tugging, pulling and irritation.

What makes these studies unique is that we didn't just ask people how their skin felt after shaving. We used medical imaging devices to measure actual changes in blood flow to the skin.

In our controlled study, participants shaving with the Henson Razor and our Protect Shave Cream saw a statistically significant, 77% reduction in measured erythema (razor burn).

Henson left skin more hydrated post-shave. Cartridge razors caused significantly greater damage to the skin barrier.
We found that in some cases, compressed shave foam from a can actually caused more irritation and dryness than just using water alone.
Data showed that erythema was highest on the neck.
The results weren't a fluke. They were consistent and statistically significant across every phase.
