Flamingo earns mixed reviews: its razors look sleek and often deliver a smooth, nick-free shave with an ergonomic, weighted handle and foamy, protective shaving cream, but many reviewers report dull or awkwardly sized heads, quick rusting, poor glide, and increased ingrowns. Reviews also praise Flamingo’s Daily Moisturizing Lotion and light hydrating spray for subtle scent and lasting hydration, while waxing strips split opinion—effective on finer facial hair yet messy, weakly adhesive, and residue‑prone on bikini or thicker hair.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
I’ve tried the razor and the wax kits and it gets the job done! I think there are more comfortable razors out there and the little stand it comes with for the shower barely works. The wax kits, however, work great and I love the calming post-wax cloths it comes with since it’s not oily like other brands.
I have been using flamingo razors for two years and I really enjoy them. I used a throwaway, disposable razors every two weeks and now I use my flamingo razor with a new head every month they stay so much sharper and they don’t rust compared to regular razors. I also really enjoy the shaving cream. They give a really smooth, high-quality shave, with no shave bumps And they are very affordable

The device the attaches to your shower to hold the razor falls off often- I hang mine in my shower organizer and throw away the holder.
I've used both the razor and the shaving cream. I didn't hate it, but didn't love it. It didn't irritate my skin like some other products but I didn't get that super smooth feel I was hoping for.
Love this razor!

It's ok. Definitely prefer Billie razors.
I like the price point of these and they are comfortable to shave with.

The head gets kind of weird and floppy after a little bit….maybe they are made to self destruct when use exceeds sanitary norms
The razor was a big let down. I thought it was going to be sustainable or reusable or something but it was just like any other razor except the blade was worse. I do swear by their body wax strips though. They are easy to use, don’t leave much residue, and what is left can easily be cleaned up by the wipes. They are very effective
I like the razor handle and style a lot. Very simple and not overly "girly" in colors or design. The shaving cream/foam is really nice and leaves silky skin. The wax strips are also great. Very high quality and don't break out my skin even though it's very sensitive.
Feedback
The razor blade starts to rust very quickly if in contact with other metal (like my shower caddy). Kinda annoying as I have to replace the blade more frequently and that they don't offer a razor holder product.
Standard razor, nothing really special other than the color
Great razor. I get a close shave, rarely get knicked. The handle is ergonomically comfortable for me.
Their new razor blades are incredibly smooth and last a pretty decent length of time. I’ve been using these razors for years now and have never had any desire to switch— Flamingo rocks.
I recently received one of these razors from a survey company to try out and I was in complete 😳 It feels like I'm gliding a stick of butter up and down my legs, I had to keep looking closely to see if it was even working, that's how good it felt against my skin. Great close nonirritating shave. These are definitely worth every cent they cost. I'll never use a different razor again!!!
I bought a Flamingo razor at Target. This is the only razor I've ever had that I've kept over time and just changed out the blades! I used to get disposable razors to shave and they just don't do as good of a job as the Flamingo brand razors. Adorable colors too!

A couple of years back, I gave the Flamingo razor in Lilac a try, and I’ve stuck with it since. The design stands out; it’s got this cute aesthetic which I personally like. I find the little holder it comes with for the shower pretty handy. One thing I’ve found convenient is getting refills. No major hassles there. What’s been a bit of a bonus is the aloe and shea butter on the razors. I’ll admit, sometimes I skip the shaving cream out of laziness, and the razor still does its job without causing too much irritation. While it’s worked for my routine, I’d say it’s always good to see what works best for individual preferences.
Not the best razor on the market, but a solid brand! Certainly better than some drugstore brands.
I dunno what wax they use in their wax kit but it’s gummy and oddly oily, leaves a residue on the skin that can’t be removed with the included wipes, and just overall feels and works weird. I didn’t enjoy using it and regretted buying it. Really cute branding but the product left a lot to be desired (and a lot of residue). Wouldn’t buy again but will admire it on the shelf. Their razors are okay. I think “just okay” sums it up.
I love flamingos body care products especially their lotion body butter and shaving cream i used to love their razor although now i have found the angle of the razor can be a little irritating to those with sensitive skin
I love that I can get my flamingo razor at target. It’s the only razor brand that I buy anymore. It gives a nice clean shave, the design is gorgeous, and the refills aren’t overpriced.
Flamingo razors are ok, but they don’t really stand out against other brands such as dollar shave club.
This is the best female razor I’ve found. Much better than Billie. I also like the fun colors they release.
