Depends on your shaving goal.

I am an African American bold woman, and my hair grows curly. I have been bald for a year now, and I am a little obsessive about cutting my hair. I do not want a single strand on my head, so I press hard when I shave my hair using most razors. I have cut myself several times using other brands. This brand has been the best I've tried thus far when it comes to shaving with a 3 to 5 blade razor. I cut myself using other brands. (keep in mind I am still new to shaving). My advice is the moisturizing strip may not be enough to shave with just wetting the razor. If you have corse and thick hair, you may want to wet your hair to relax it some and use shaving cream. Whichever way you decide to shave, this has still been the best five-blade razor for me. I would recommend it. If your hair is thin and or straight, you could probably use this razor without shaving cream.
