Not exactly. Although Dollar Shave Club does sell many products that are vegan, and they do not test their products on animals, their parent company Unilever does. Furthermore, Dollar Shave Club is not certified 100% vegan or cruelty free by any outside organizations.
Yes, Dollar Shave Club is now available and sold in stores.
Aside from customers being able to purchase Dollar Shave Club products directly from their website, Dollar Shave Club products are now available at drug stores, mass retailers (like Target and Walmart), and grocery retailers nationwide.
Dollar Shave Club is a subscription service - members must first sign up, make their choice among the starter sets of razors and shaving supplies available, and they will then receive that set in the mail along with replacement cartridges each month. Customers are also able to add on a variety of shaving, bath, and grooming products including deodorant, skincare products, wipes, and more.

According to this article, while you can get replacement cartridges sent to you each month for only $1, this is only possible with their most basic option. The price will increase if you choose their more premium shaving supplies and packages. Additionally, there is also a $2 shipping charge for each shipment of replacement cartridges sent.
Yes, according to happy reviews like this one, Dollar Shave Club's subscription program is a worthwhile investment. As a subscription service that brings high quality shaving supplies to customers everywhere for cheaper, Dollar Shave Club was definitely seen as a worthwhile enough investment for Unilever to purchase the company in 2016 for $1 billion!
