The right razor blade – am I a freshman or an alpha?

How many razor blades are useful? Freshman vs. Alpha compared.

More and more manufacturers are bringing razors with ever more blades to market. But is "more" automatically "better"? We at Mornin' Glory believe: No.

That's why we deliberately offer only two blade types for facial shaving – the 3-blade Freshman razor blade and the 5-blade Alpha razor blade. This keeps your choice simple and uncomplicated, ensuring you find the blade that truly suits you.

The razor blade – the main character

Both the Freshman and Alpha razors are made of high-quality Japanese steel and finished with a ceramic coating. An integrated aloe vera strip with vitamin E provides care even during shaving.

Important: Never press too hard to avoid skin irritation and razor burn – whether you are using a Venus razor blade, Gillette Fusion 5 blades or our own Freshman or Alpha blades.

Freshman – small, strong, efficient

  • 3 razor blades spaced further apart for a gentle shave

  • Ideal for thicker beard hair and sensitive skin

  • Easy to clean and particularly gentle on the skin

  • Aloe vera strips provide the skin with moisture and vitamin E.

Alpha – thorough & precise

  • 5 razor blades for maximum closeness

  • Extra-large aloe vera zone to soothe skin irritations

  • Precision trimmer on the back for difficult areas

  • Perfect for men who appreciate a particularly smooth shave.

Rover – the perfect razor handle

Whether you prefer Freshman or Alpha: The Rover razor handle is 100% compatible with all our razor blades . Its solid weight and rubber coating ensure optimal balance and a secure grip – even when wet.

What type are you?

  • Freshman is right for you if you have sensitive skin or thick beard hair.

  • Alpha is ideal if you want a particularly thorough shave and value precision.

With only two clear options, the decision is easy – and your skin will thank you.
