A method for assembling a razor handle is provided. The method includes installing a rod into a first shell of a body of a razor handle, installing an attachment end of a head onto a front end of the first shell, installing a clip member onto a rear end of the first shell, positioning a second shell adjacent to the first shell, compressing the first shell and the second shell together, and covering the first and second shell with a cover layer. The clip member includes retention features to facilitate coupling to the first and second shells. The cover layer can entirely surround the first and second shells, can be overmolded on both shells, and can be formed of thermoplastic elastomer with a durometer value of between about 15 and about 20. The thermoplastic elastomer is substantially translucent or less opaque than the first and second shell.
