In order to provide a razor head for arrangement at the front end of a handle, which, with a simple construction and easy assembly suitable for mass production and low manufacturing cost, improves the results of shaving and also can be used at body locations which are difficult to access for cosmetic and medical purposes, a razor head (1) for arrangement at the front end of a handle (2) is proposed, with a housing (3) in which are inserted at least two razor blades (8, 10) at an angle to each other and with essentially parallel cutting edges pointing away from each other, which together with adjacent housing parts define at least one contact plane, to which the respective razor blades are arranged at an essentially optimum cutting angle.

Bi-directional wire-wrapped blade cartridge

In order to develop a wet razor consisting of a handle, a razor head which can be connected to the front end of the handle, in particular a razor blade unit with at least one razor blade, and a connecting device for connection of the razor head to the handle, to the effect that the results of shaving are improved and the razor can also be used for medical purposes for preoperative shaving, it is proposed that the razor head is mounted so as to be pivotable relative to the handle about a pivot axis located essentially perpendicular to a cutting edge of the razor blade and essentially in the plane of the razor blade.
