Razor

Razors are known for millennia. In ancient Egypt, Pharaos shave their facial hair with razors made of bronze in order to become clean and civilized. At the beginning of the 20th century, famous brands began to produce razors for women and hairless campaigns started to promote women's hairless bodies as natural and beautiful. The introduction of bikinis around 1946 and clothing that exposed body parts, made women routinely shave their legs. Nowadays, although there are many campaigns for celebrating natural body hair (like "Super Hairoes"), the majority of women still spend around 1000$ per year to remove their public hair. Razors have even been a part of ones gender transformation. Overall, razors and hairlessness have been in a new era in the 21st century. Even if people stop shaving their body hairs, razors will still be meaningful objects with long and rich "life history", worth studying.
