How often should you change Merkur blades?

The frequency of blade changes in a Merkur razor can vary depending on several factors. These include how frequently you shave and the coarseness of your facial hair. 

As a general guideline, many individuals find it beneficial to change Merkur razor blades after approximately 5 to 10 shaves. However, it's essential to pay attention to how the blade feels during shaving. 

If you notice increased tugging, irritation, or a decline in shaving performance before reaching the 5 to 10 shave mark, it's advisable to replace the blade. Regularly inspect the blade for signs of rust or wear, as this can impact the quality of your shave. 

By monitoring the blade's condition and changing it as needed, you can maintain a consistently comfortable and effective shaving experience with your Merkur razor.
