You can purchase razor savers that greatly extend the life of a cartridge (by months) and I agree the heated labs razor is the best cartridge I’ve ever used.
Another excellent review,, Larry! I hope all is well with you and yours. Right now, I favor the Schick Hydro 5. It gives me the same level of comfort as the Gillette Proglide. Interestingly, Schick has introduced a new Designer Razor (as it is called in the UK). It seems to be a souped up Quattro. I hope it is released in the U.S. All the best.
Hey Karl! Hope you and your family are doing well also. Interesting, I’m not a huge fan of the Hydro 5 which I think is weird because the Quattro is one of my favorites. I think it’s the mechanism of the Hydro 🤷🏾♂️. I think I still have a few hydro blades, I need to test it out again🤔. Big thanks for your comment and for checking out the video!
If I end up having an issue affording it at 5 dollars a razor I’ll probably switch to something cheaper, but my situation is a little different than most people. Me and my spouse both work from home. We share one car which is a hybrid, and we don’t send the kids to daycare. We downsized from a rent house to an apartment that was much cheaper. Affording nicer bath/shave products is a lot easier for us. I hope I get the heated razor eventually. Also I noticed the prices are always fluctuating so it’s better to buy the razors in bulk at the cheapest price possible. I don’t care about the exfoliating bar I just feel like they had to put something in that little space. My second choice would probably be Harry’s or schick. Not a fan of dollar shave club at all. I grew up in the crappy razors like BIC and DSC and I’m done with those. I feel like I get more micro cuts from cheaper razors and it’s especially apparent when I put on my aftershave which razor cuts my face more 😂 love your videos man! We wanna see you shave that beard one day for fun ❤
Man thank you so much for checking out the videos and taking time to comment! I’ve thought about shaving the beard so many times for a razor review but I’ve had the beard since my oldest daughter was born (she’s 9) so it’d be weird 🤣. I’m going to shave it down to a goatee someday just to quiet the haters. I agree with everything you said, I notice a difference with better razors for sure. But since the cheaper razors work it’s tough to justify $6’buck per.
@@fitnessnbeer9835 for sure man! You’re doing a great job! And also that’s a very sentimental beard you have there and I completely understand with kids myself. That beard must be where you get all your strength 😆 no hate here at all! You probably do shave more surface area definitely. A goatee might be a fun summer look! And in understand. I hope Gillette eventually lowers the price. Either way I’ve been looking at the most comfortable DE razor to see about saving a ton of money but idk I’m not the most dexterous person ever so we shall see. Schick isn’t a bad value but I don’t know if I’d even like it compared to Gillette. Anyways thanks again for the informative videos!
Look at the K cups in coffee. Crazy more expensive over a bag of coffee just for that convenience. You can get a good shave for much cheaper but you can get a quicker more convenient for more. It's all luxury we got spoiled too. Honestly tho i'm like you i have to not only shave my face but whole head and i think that makes a big difference in getting the more expensive shavers. If i just shaved my face i prob could be fine with a Mach 3!
Yo big thanks for checking out a couple of videos! Love the RU-vid handle. Agreed, we def pay for convenience. Sounds like we both shave a lot of surface area. I can get by with the Mach 3 but shaving with the Gillette Labs is more enjoyable and easier. I like the idea of having a couple of shaving handles so I can take advantage of what’s on sale.
in the 1970s Gillette had a heated foam dispensing device. its all marketing gimmicks. they have not improved razors at all. mach3 used to a good smooth razor in the 90s many people don't even know they changed the designed in 2016 made the blades thinner to save costs..made it worse rougher shaver
