5. Protect it while travelling 

If you are planning to travel for a longer period of time, you will probably want to take a razor with you. Take good care of your packing up – make sure that your razor will not be exposed to excessive trauma and friction. Fancy razors that have plenty pivots and hinges are even less resistant to bangs and stresses. Purchase a special travel case and store your razors in it.
