Most razors chase gimmicks.  More blades, more flex, more flash.  But the truth is simpler: shaving is physics, not marketing. We break down how Henson’s aerospace-grade engineering rewrites the rules by minimizing blade flex, optimizing pressure, and stripping away needless moving parts.

Henson is about more than just a better shave tomorrow. It’s about the benefits that add up months and years down the line. Here’s what you can expect after switching to Henson.

Read a simple guide on how to prep your skin and hair to be ready to shave.  Its often an overlooked area of shaving.  Just slapping on shave cream and shaving is a surefire way to leave with irritation.

Why do people look at our razor and assume it’s only for men?

Shaving is more than simply removing hair, it’s one of the biggest daily factors affecting your skin barrier, the system that keeps your skin smooth, hydrated, and youthful.

Traditional shaving foam feels smooth and luxurious, but it’s built for sensation, not performance. Clinical testing shows it increases redness, reduces hydration, and leaves behind residue that can irritate skin, even if it "feels" good.

We didn’t walk into a barber shop on Magazine street in New Orleans looking for a shave cream, but over the next several months we realized that this shave cream was an exceptional pairing to our razor.

In our second phase of research, we brought 52 people into our offices to measure the true impact of shaving—down to the blood vessels. The results? Surprising insights into irritation, skin types, and why one part of your neck always flares up.

Henson Shaving has partnered with MIMOSA Diagnostics to conduct groundbreaking research aiming to better understand the physiological effects of shaving on the skin. Learn more about our groundbreaking research.

The shaving industry has failed consumers by prioritizing profits over skin health, perpetuating a cycle of irritation and discomfort. Despite advancements in technology, razors have remained largely unchanged, with manufacturers focusing on trivial features rather than addressing the root causes of shaving-related issues.
