A replaceable shaving assembly comprising:
- an interface element including a handle interface element configured to receive a distal hand of a razor handle, an arcuate blade unit interface element having attachment points, and a return element that flexibly joins the handle interface portion and the blade interface portion;
- and
- a blade unit pivotably mounted on the interface element by engagement of the attachment points on the blade interface element with complementary attachment points on the blade unit.
A shaving system comprising:
- a handle having a distal end and a proximal end;
- and
- an interface element interface element including a handle interface element configured to receive the distal end of the razor handle, an arcuate blade unit interface element having attachment points, and a return element that flexibly joins the handle interface portion and the blade interface element;
- and
- a blade unit pivotably mounted on the interface element by engagement of the attachment points on the blade interface element with complementary attachment points on the blade unit.
A method of shaving comprising contacting the skin with the blade unit of a shaving system comprising a handle having a distal end and a proximal end, and a replaceable shaving assembly that includes (a) an interface element interface element including a handle interface element configured to receive a distal hand of a razor handle, an arcuate blade unit interface element having attachment points, and a return element that flexibly joins the handle interface portion and the blade interface portion;
- and (b) a blade unit pivotably mounted on the interface element by engagement of the attachment points on the blade interface element with complementary attachment points on the blade unit.
