Now carrying Henson Shaving!

ArtMed is proud to announce we’re now carrying Henson Razors and Henson ‘s 3-step Shave Routine skin care products.   

Henson Shaving is Canada’s 5th fastest growing company! And there’s good reasons for that. 

Henson is based in the tri-city area of Ontario.  They manufacture their razors in Cambridge, and their offices are in Kitchener/WaterlooArtmed loves local! 

Why is ArtMed selling a safety razor? 

Because ArtMed is concerned with skin health. And shaving is common and affects the skin. 

Shaving related skin problems are an ignored and vastly understudied area of medical and aesthetic dermatology.  And yet 2/3 of shavers say they expect irritation with shaving. Why should people put up with razor burns, irritation, inflammation and ingrown hairs??  

Henson is also primarily concerned with skin health and improving the shaving experience.  Whether you’re male, female, non-binary, shaving your face, head or body a Henson razor may be the solution you’ve been looking for. 

Henson is unique in having conducted clinical studies which demonstrate their razor technology leads to decreased skin irritation and post-shaving complications. Dr Peirson has sat on Henson’s clinical advisory committee and can attest to their dedication to skin health. Their web series ‘Saving Shaving’ also attests to their commitment to a better shaving experience for all. 

How is a Henson razor different than other safety razors? 

Henson razors are: 

  • precision engineered to AS9001 aerospace standards from machined aircraft aluminum  

  • environmentally friendly – no more plastic razors or blade cartridges in landfills 

  • Henson Shaving takes a function-first approach: 

  • the razor is light to hold and easy to manipulate in hand 

  • has a fixed 30ºangle to ensure optimal blade position for cutting hair  

  • blade exposure and blade gap are optimized and blade plane is flattened (if you’re a shaving geek and were wondering..) 

  • no blade edge overhang and fixed angle of blade optimize safety and comfort 

  • the rigidity of a Henson razor provides a close and even shave with less hair tugging and less irritation 

  • it’s easy to clean 

Henson has also developed proprietary skin care products to additionally insure optimal skin health.  This includes 3 products: 

  • a pre-shave foaming cleanser to cleanse and prep the skin and soften hair 

  • a shave cream formulated to minimize irritation by providing effortless glide during shaving  

  • and a post-shave balm to restore the skin’s natural moisture barrier and reduce risk of inflammation and infection 

Best news? Henson Razors are easy on your wallet! 

Henson razors and skin care are affordable! The 2-year shave kit which includes a Henson razor, aircraft aluminum razor stand (that optimizes drying) and 100 blades costs just is $125. It also comes in a handsome box.  What a cool gift for your partner, a friend or yourself!  

The 3-step Shave Routine is just $59 for three 100ml products and comes in a giftable box.
