Gillette introduces 5 Blade shaving system

[Migs]

Target has it on sale for $8 and you get a free canister of shave lotion.  It's pretty good so far.

i am still using tha fusion and dayumm its great still tha closest shave hands down

[Thin Lizzy]

Damn, you just never know what thread is gonna take off.

Might as well kick in my 2 cents.


I've heard that multiple blade systems can cause more ingrown hairs for people with heavy beards. The second and third blades can often push the hair in as opposed to taking it off.


Anyone besides me shave in the shower?

  I remember way back in 97 and 98, when I was 17-18 years-old, starting to shave regularly, and all we had were the traditional 2 blades razor. Then, in 2000, they came out with the 3 blades stuff. Then, it was the Chick Quattro. Now, I think this is getting ridiculous. I don't think there's any substantial difference in peformance, between a 3 blades razor and one that has 5. When will this trend end

I could never get tired of him.  He is the best!  He makes each and every day, Jag and I couldn't live without him.

I believe ya! He always brings a smile to my face, ...and that's from over 2,000 miles away.
I can just imagine what a non-stop riot he must be up close and personal. Hang onto that one!

I agree man, like this new thing, the "automobile",
who need's that shit? You can just walk or bike anywhere you want for free.

Have fun shaving with that rusty old knife. It'll work fine.

"I'm not only the owner, I'm also a client".
How many on here work for the company, and is there *any* legit justification for a battery-operated razor? Can it double as a vibrator?

Obviously there's rabid interest in this crap.

If you shave during or immediately after a shower it's closer with less irritation. The 3-blade *is* better than a single blade AND lasts longer, which brings the price down. Maybe the 5-blade's a little better but I think I'll wait for the discounts to kick in after the 6-blader's introduced.

Schick sued Gillette for their claims of "Best shave in the World" and "The best a man can get" and for Gillette's claim regarding how the vibration raises hair up and away  from the skin, leading to a closer and better shave. Judge ruled the ads to be misleading

In my eyes, the Gillette Fusion is much better than Mach3 (1998), which was a tremendous improvement over Excel. Personally, I don't notice a difference in quality of shave when using vibration vs. w/o vibration. Make sure you get a good shaving gel, not the old foam stuff.

If in doubt, shave half your face (left/right split) with one razor and you other half with another razor and compare quality of shave, both right after shave and at 5-6pm. Used this method for evaluation of razors for a competitor of Gillette's.

Cool, i'll give the shaving half the face a try.

I found the gilette fusion (or schick fusion?) better than the mach3 too! But it seems most prefer the mach3 on the net...
If i see the mach5 in the racks, i'll buy it and compare it to the fusion/mach3.

I said the same think Frank.  You can't fight progress and this is progress.  Try one, they come with a money back guarantee so what you go to loose?  Get one, you'll be amazed.

And a few years before then, they all went to the local barber to get a shave with a straight blade knife, the whole nine yards with steaming towels, a brush to spread the shaving soap and a fascial massage after the shave was over. Trust me, sitting there in the chair, having some dude running the knife around your face isn't exactly relaxing. Still a few places you can get it the old-fashioned way, but the shave is expensive, time consuming, inconvenient and to top it off; not as good.

Go with the times, follow the flow; get yourself a Gillette Fusion! 

Seriously, it beats the heck out of any knife, double-edge razor, twin blade and even the Mach3.

This is really starting to sound like a commercial..

Get back to us with results after comparing the different razors..

no reason to compare Mach3 and Fusion; Fusion is in a division of its own; KO to Fusion!

His cheek
Was rough
His chick vamoosed
And now she won't
Come home to roost

Gillette Fusion
Was such a boom
They passed
The bride
And kissed the groom

Keeping faces clean
And nobody knows

Can it double as a vibrator?

       Wow Pumpster, you just got my attention!
