What do you all use as far as razors go??? I am currently in the market for a new one 'cause I've found that Gillete test on animals. The problem is, every easily-attained razor brand seems to be testing...any suggestions???

I got mine from Vegan Essentials. Just order one and order a bunch of blades at the same time- that way you won't have to order them a lot. Pangea also has razors, and Different Daisy has some on sale right now.

Didn't Gillette end testing years ago?

Well, they didn't quite end it for good, but they did declare a moratorium on animal testing-

maybe my logic is off, but i've been buying gilette products. their moratorium has been going on since i started avoiding animal tested products, and i thought it would be a good idea to support them during the moratorium.

hi! first time poster here!

i am de-lurking to say that i get my razors (personna by american safety razor, the same brand sold by pangea,) from wal-mart. i was psyched to find them 5 minutes from my house because in my fight against hirstute-ness i go through lots of razors.

I've been using Gillette razors, but just discovered yesterday that Walmart carries the Personna razors like misslego said. If not for seeing them on Pangea first, I probably wouldn't have even given them a second glance.
I was pretty excited by the find.

I'll have to see if the Wal-Mart here carries those. That's really cool!

The Wal-Mart here has them! I thought I'd stop in there today to see, and sure enough. The razor & replacement heads were only $2.47!! That's three bucks less plus what you pay for shipping than getting them from Pangea. Plus, they have the ones that are for women. Sweet!

I hate Personna razors.. I always cut myself when I use them and they get dull really fast.
