When to Change Your Razor Blade

It's easy to get lazy and keep using the same razor blade to shave your legs or underarms in the shower everyday. As long as the hair's coming off, why change it? Because bacteria gathers on the blade, and could be transferred to your blood stream if you cut yourself. Gross. Also, the hair might be coming off, but not as cleanly as it did with a new blade, so you're likely to have stubble. Use a fresh blade at least every two weeks, and if it's a disposable razor, toss it out and get a new one every week. Of course, you could always convert to waxing and toss the thing out entirely, but you have to like a little pain. Stay smooth.
