Flamingo earns mixed reviews: its lotions and shaving cream consistently impress for silky, fast-absorbing hydration and refined, subtle scent, while the razors and wax strips deliver uneven results. Reviews praise close, non‑irritating shaves for many and sleek, weighted handles with easy cartridge swaps, but cite frequent dulling, rusting, flimsy heads/attachments, awkward head size for ankles, poor holder suction, and wax strips that leave residue or miss hair.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
Flamingo razors give a clean shave without nicks or irritation. The moisturizing strip is a nice touch. The replacement blades are expensive, but overall recommended.
Flamingo is the only razor I use. I will forever purchase! Not only are their razors great but I also love their body lotion, the scent is amazing!!!
Trustworthy razor subscription. Loved the multiple items to purchase. Reliable razor, will keep purchasing / the subscription in future.

I haven't tried any of the hair removal products but I use the Light Hydrating Spray after every shower and sometimes use it on my face. It is non-irritating, smells lovely and the hydration is long-lasting.
I've been using their razors for over a year now and they do quite well! Doesn't irritate my sensitive skin and it gets the job done. However, I think it's rather expensive so I'm not too keen on purchasing the blade refills regularly. If you're looking for a smooth shave, sensitive skin friendly razor but don't mind the price then this is for you!
The shaver was so good took 10 mins for both my legs.
Love the razors, very high quality, cute colors, and afforable (plus the suction cup holder is so convenient)! However, I've tried the wax strips on various parts of my body and unfortunately they either left me still with hair or with burns or bleeding. While I did not have any success with the wax strips, Flamingo is still my favorite razor.
Really like this razor. Last a long time before having to change the blade.
I wanted to love Flamingo based on their marketing and the ads I've seen. I purchased a razor and honestly, it doesn't perform any better than the lower cost razors I usually buy. I was hoping these would be better for my skin and cause less irritation but unfortunately that was not the case.
Love that I can get a bag of razor heads delivered so I don't have to worry about re-ordering. Fresh razors mean clean, smooth shaves, and I don't have to worry about razor burn. Love their shaving cream too!

The wax strips made me break out, so I probably wouldn't use those again.
This is my go to brand for self care. I absolutely love each product. The razor and shaving cream specifically. These procure are reasonable priced and affordable while doing the same work as the very expensive version.
First of all, my mom loves this brand. She is an extremely loyal customer. Now my opinion. Honestly, the razors and shaving cream aren't *bad* but I don't necessarily love them. I have been using the Billie razors for about a year now and I think they work bette for my sensitive skin. However, I love Flamingo's body care line. The scent is so GOOD and the spray lotion works amazing. As an autistic girlie who hates greasy and sticky lotion feelings-- the spray lotion is 1) so convenient and quick to use and 2) applies and absorbs extremely quickly. I wish that Target kept the spray lotion in stock... it is probably my favorite product.

Please keep the Flamingo Body Care line!

cute razors that work well!
I really wanted to like this razor. The design is so cute and come in a wide range of colors but almost every time I would shave, I’d walk out of the bathroom with bandaids all over. Sadly I’m back to using Harry’s boring grey Men’s razors.

I don't know why there's such low reviews but I love flamingos's razors! They get the job done when it comes to shaving and I am a very hairy lady. They don't give any nicks or cuts and get really close enough to the skin when shaving. A pretty darn good razor, I'd say.
Feedback
I totally recommend to anyone looking for a good razor. I give it four stars though because there are BETTER razors that are out there. Skintimate is another particularly good razor to for my fellow ladies out there.

Not speaking to all their products, but personally I don’t love these razors! They ended up cutting my legs up, and the blades didn’t feel smooth or glide properly. I definitely didn’t feel like these were worth buying again, and I’ve moved on to other brands.
before I discovered flamingo, I had been buying the same razor from the drugstore for decades. The only thing wrong with that is that it wasn't nearly as sustainable as my flamingo razor and I was constantly having to replace the razor itself along with replacement heads. I've had the same flamingo razor for about two years now, and still have not had to replace it. I just buy replacement razor heads from my drugstore every month and I'm a happy camper.

if you want a simple sustainable razor, flamingo is perfect.

I have thick Italian/Hispanic hair and the razor just did not work for me. However, the shaving cream and wax strips are really nice and I would repurchase those.

Love the razor, the shaving cream, the post-wax serum and cleaning cloths! The spray lotion has a smell that didn’t appeal, though.
Feedback
There’s kind of a lot of plastic involved with the razor packaging. And I had trouble with using the wax on anything but the finest facial hairs, but I’m also a wax newbie so maybe I wasn’t using it correctly.

Decent, sturdy razors with the ability to purchase refills at local retailers like Target. Not the best for the bikini line but it does the job on the legs!
