The short answer is yes. Cartridge razors, where the cartridge can be detached from the handle and covered with a plastic head, are usually fine to take in your hand luggage on a plane. Disposable razors are also okay to take in your hand luggage, as long as they are in their packaging.
Examples of what cannot be carried onto the plane include: Axes. Metal Cutlery. Razors.
This includes box cutters and razor blades not in a cartridge. A straight razor may provide an excellent shave, but it's basically a knife, so if you must bring it, check your bags. If you don't, for obvious reasons TSA will very likely confiscate your straight razor at the first security checkpoint you go through.
Checked Bags: Yes
If packed in carry-on, they must be less than 4 inches from the pivot point. Any sharp objects in checked bags should be sheathed or securely wrapped to prevent injury to baggage handlers and inspectors. For more prohibited items, please go to the 'What Can I Bring?' page.
You are allowed to bring a quart-sized bag of liquids, aerosols, gels, creams and pastes in your carry-on bag and through the checkpoint. These are limited to travel-sized containers that are 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) or less per item.
Liquid or gel food items larger than 3.4 oz are not allowed in carry-on bags and should be placed in your checked bags if possible. TSA officers may instruct travelers to separate items from carry-on bags such as foods, powders, and any materials that can clutter bags and obstruct clear images on the X-ray machine.
Disposable razors, replacement blades, and electric razors can go in either your carry-on or checked baggage; if you have a safety or straight razor, you can pack it in your carry-on — but you must remove the blades first and pack them in one of your checked bags.
Containers larger than 100 millilitres or 100 grams, even if only partially-filled, containing liquids, aerosols or gels will not be allowed through the security screening point. For example, a 200 gram toothpaste tube that is half-full will not be permitted.
Only razors where the blade is fully and permanently enclosed and razor cartridges are allowed in hand baggage. The following items are some of those that are considered as liquid and must be placed inside your resealable bag: hairspray and other aerosol items. creams and lotions.
If you are flying within Australia on a domestic flight, there are no restrictions on how much powders, liquids, aerosols and gels you can carry onboard.

Nail clippers, nail-trimming scissors and cuticle cutters are totally fine in your carry-on bag.
Any sharp objects in checked bags should be sheathed or securely wrapped to prevent injury to baggage handlers and inspectors.
Toothpaste is considered a liquid by the TSA (Transport Security Agency), even though it's technically a paste. In fact, all pastes, gels, waxes, and lotions are also classified as liquids. And even today, these substances are still restricted by the 3-1-1 rule in hand luggage due to safety threats.
You can pack tweezers in hand or checked baggage without any packing restrictions. But TSA doesn't allow packing sharp objects in hand baggage because some of them could be used as potential weapons. So some special types of tweezers might be prohibited if they have sharp, pointy ends.
Stick deodorant is fine in any size. Well, almost any size… Powders and crystals are good to go as well. Spray, Gel, Liquid, Cream, Pastes, and Roll-On deodorants need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces and placed in a clear quart-sized baggie.
Items that are easily detectable by the security metal detectors include but are not limited to: razors, scissors, knives, and ice picks, box cutters, sporting items like baseball bats, golf clubs, bows and arrows, guns explosives. These items are best left in the back that will be checked in.
If you do not want to use a strop while traveling, you could use a Shavette or other barber razor that mimics the straight razor, but uses disposable blades. Several manufacturers produce models of shaving brushes that are made specifically for traveling.
Checked Bags: Yes
The capacity of each container must not exceed 0.5 kg (18 ounces) or 500 ml (17 fluid ounces). See the FAA regulations for more information. Permitted aerosol release devices (button/nozzle) must be protected by caps or other suitable means to prevent accidental release.
Each passenger is limited to one quart-size bag of liquids, gels and aerosols. Common travel items that must comply with the 3-1-1 liquids rule include toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, mouthwash and lotion.
Don't forget, lip gloss and mascara count as liquids!
Bulky Clothing
Oversized clothing might be comfy—especially if you've got a long flight ahead—but it could lead to chaos at airport security. "Flowy dresses, skirts, or bulky sweaters and sweatshirts may cause you to get selected for a pat-down to ensure you're not hiding anything," says Nelson.
