“I was very keen when I read about this razor . It’s a lovely razor to look at but to use it’s very hard I’ve tried it a few times now and it just keeps cutting me to pieces . It’s not easy to use. So total waste of money and I’ve tried to contact Lane44 through email and messenger and even commented on a post . Seems no one wants to reply when their is a problem .wasted my money and stick with this razor as an ornament . Should come with some kind of money back guarantee if you can’t get on with it. It’s an extremely sharp blade and it will cut you to pieces .”
“Although the look of the razor is amazing and easy to use. Not impressed with the results. Hair grew back the next day which never happened before had to go back to my old razor”
“I've not had a positive experience using this razor. There's not been a time where I haven't horribly cut myself and I don't find the resulting shave to be that smooth.
It looks lovely and in steadier hands it might work better, but I've never cut myself so many times as I have using this product in the 15+ years I've been shaving.”
Hey Annie,
Thanks for the review and letting us know the challenges you've had with using the product.
The most important technique adjustment is to use absolutely no pressure. You def shouldn't be getting loads of cuts and a really steady hand isn't important. Using no pressure will make a huge difference.
Here's a video that others have found really helpful in finding the right technique:

“I am not impressed with the razor as a product- there was a lot of promise in all the social media adds, but I find these razors to cause more irritation or not cut the hairs at all.”
Hey Hayley,
Thanks for the feedback.
It definitely sounds like there's an issue. If you're finding the razor isn't cutting the hairs, I think there must be a technique issue.
It sounds like the razor isn't being held at the right angle. This could be a reason why you're experiencing irritation.
Give us a shout and we'll be more than happy to help sort this for you!
“Looks like a nice razor however I found it Dangerous ! I was left with lots of little cuts all over my legs after using this razor, even with shaving foam. I will go back to using the Gillette thanks”
Hey,
Thanks for the review and sorry to hear of the cuts!!
Technique is so important when using this type of razor. It's actually really easy to use when you know the right technique and in no way dangerous. However, when used incorrectly, as with any razor or sharp object, it can be.
We'd love to chat it through with you and help you improve your technique and get the shave you should expect from this type of razor!
“The packaging and appearance of the razor is 10/10 and looks amazing. Although when using, I would of gotten a better result from using a bic razor. My legs were cut badly although being careful when using. I messaged on Facebook over a week ago and have still had no feedback. Disappointed.”
Hey Megan,
Thanks for the feedback and really sorry we completely missed your message on Facebook.
There's definitely a different technique when using the razor. We'll give you a shout on Facebook and we can help you get the close, comfortable shave you should expect 😊
Hey Jessie,
Thanks for your review.
It sounds like the technique isn't quite right as it really should be pretty easy to use once you get the hang of it.

Hey,
Thanks for your review.
We should be able to help you. The shave should definitely be smoother than a standard razor and you shouldn't be getting a rash from the blade.
Please feel free to get in touch on Insta or by email and we can chat about a few options to improve the performance 😊
Hey,
Thanks for letting us know.
We'd love to chat with you more about the problems you're having with the razor. It can take a bit to get used to. The key is to apply absolutely no pressure and shave when your skin is nice and warm (during or after a shower).
Please feel free to get in touch. We'd love to help make this work for you.
