A razor handle that includes an elongated hollow housing having an opening provided on the front end, a razor head carrier which is slidably mounted in the recess between a first non-shaving position in which the razor head carrier is retracted and completely located inside the recess, a second shaving position, and a sliding mechanism for moving the razor head carrier. The razor handle further includes a pivotally mounted movable flap having a closed position in which the flap closes the opening, and an open position in which the flap is fully open and gives way to the razor head carrier, the movable flap being driven by a linkage.
