A shaving aid member pivots in a predetermined range from an initial position to a pivot position with respect to a razor head against elastic force of leaf springs. In the shaving aid member, a mounting portion of a base member is aligned with the razor head and two arm portions of the base member are invisible from the front side of the razor head. This reduces the space occupied by the arm portions outside the outer peripheral portion of the razor head. As a result, in a razor with a shaving aid, comfort in use is enhanced. Further, the razor is compact-sized since the surface area of the front side of the portion outlined by the razor head and the shaving aid member is decreased.
