Billie draws rave reviews for delivering a consistently close, irritation‑free shave with sharp five‑blade cartridges, a comfortable grippy handle, and the clever magnetic shower holder; many long‑term users say it’s the best razor they’ve tried. Reviews also flag drawbacks: lubricant strips can get goopy or leave residue, some report blades dulling faster or quality declines over time, a few experience razor burn, and the wall mount or blade connection occasionally fails.

  • I love the mission of this company and definitely would prefer to reduce waste by using a refillable and longer lasting product overall. In general, I liked the Billie razor, but did notice that the blades seemed to dull faster than some of the other brands I have used in the past!

  • I’ve been using Billie razors for years and I love their products. I think the subscription price is super reasonable and allows for flexibility. I also think their products are super high quality and have contributed to my self care routine. I think I’ll be a customer for a long time.

  • My favorite razors. I've never gotten such a clean shave, and it's amazing not to have to use any shaving cream. Travel friendly as well! I don't go without it.

  • I’ve been using Billie razors for years now. My favorite feature is the little magnetic razor hanger. It works like a charm and keeps my razor clean and dry when not in use.

  • Razors have changed a little and I don’t feel like there is much luxury to the brand anymore. It is easy and affordable but I am considering switching.

  • I love my Billie razor. I am not a member of the subscription, rather got a Billie at CVS and buy replacements, and I get the hype: this is the the smoothest shave! I have extremely sensitive legs and Billie does not irritate them at all. My only issue is that the replacement razor heads do not have any cover with them - I know they sell a 'travel cover' which looks massive compared to the razor itself. So, I find myself having to use a plastic bag and ruining the blades on every trip I go on. If this was fixed, my review would be 5/5!

  • Billie wasn’t brand of choice for multiple years until I switched to a more eco-friendly, non plastic version. It worked well and I still use the remaining cartridges for a travel razor. I don’t love how they get a bit goopy, need to be mindful of storing them because of this factor or they get stuck and can be a bit messy.

  • I use their razors because I have them and for a long time couldn’t figure out how to cancel my subscription so I have a ton of blades. They’re fine, nothing particularly special about them. I’ve tried their shaving cream, which was also fine.

  • Billie is a breath of fresh air in the beauty world. Their products are effective, their message is empowering, and their commitment to inclusivity is refreshing. If you're tired of the airbrushed BS and want to embrace your authentic beauty try it out

  • Razors are great but I wish there was an option for even less frequent deliveries. I ended up cancelling my subscription because I had an abundance of the replacement heads.

  • Loved their first campaign with #projectbodyhair. I loved seeing diverse body hair grooming styles on diverse identities, races, and sizes. It was fucking cool to see a razor brand that owned body hair in a way that hadn't been done before. They supported you whether you were clean shaven, trimmed, or proud to show off your hairy pits. The marketing totally worked too bc I went out and bought the razor, refills, and shaving cream. Happy to report the product quality rocks, and I love their fun colors. I am, however, bummed to see they haven't kept up the bold inclusivity since being bought out. I'll probably keep buying their razor heads though.

  • Use this brand every day and prefer it to the alternatives on the market. I like how the razors are sharp but they also contain a good amount of moisture around the blades to keep it gliding smoothly. They also come with a magnetic holder that you can mount on your shower to keep it away from germs and to have a convenient spot for it to sit on. I am not as much a fan of their shaving cream as I find that it leaves a weird feeling on my hands after I apply it that I can only get off by washing my hands with a different soap.

  • Billie has changed my life. I used to stress about buying razors all the time - now I always have extra blades and everything I need for the smoothest shave. The refill blades come just when I need them

  • Very smooth Razer bought at great price at Costco, no cuts and has been using for a while.

  • I tried Billie for a few months. Their razor does a mediocre job. I am not a fan of the razor head though. It doesn’t stay on the handle very well. Every time I go to take the razor cover off, the entire head comes off. It’s actually annoying.

  • I have been subscribed to Billie razors for like 4 years now. I love the razors and they work really well on my sensitive skin. I do feel like the quality has gone down a little bit as the blades don't have as much moisturizer on them as they used to. I love the subscription aspect and the branding is so cute!

  • I've used the Billie razor for a few years now and it's definitely the best one I've used. Cute design, comes with a convenient shower hanger and leaves me feeling smooth, no rashes or bumps. I wasn't a fan of the subscription model so I'm happy they are stocked in Target now! And the razor cover they've just recently released is great for travel.

  • Good razors that are inexpensive and the subscription is convenient, but the quality seems to have declined and they get a little slimy after a few uses.
