Do you think the Mach 3, is the best wet razor ever invented? :eek:
I've tried all of the other brands; and their different models, but I've always gone back to the Mach 3.
Usually the problem I have with other razors, is the blades quickly get clogged, and they are hard work to unclog
, whereas with a Mach 3, a quick shake in the water; and the blades are clear again.

What I'll never understand are people who use those single bladed "safety" (lol!!) razors that will take your face off if you so much as breathe near it. Those things make me cringe just looking at them.
I can't get on with electric shavers either, it's like sticking your face in a lawnmower.
them they use in the barbers that flip open like a knife? ive always wanted on of them to try myself but never remembered to buy one or look for them. I love when you get a haircut and they put foam around the bottom and shave with one of them it feels good
I tried this one when it first came out, and the same problem with clogged blades.
I have one and used a mach 3 the last time i shaved and it wasnt as good.
Not those, they're even more scary!! I'm talking these industrial-looking beasts.
Completely agree.
I tried a screw top razor when I was a teenager, where you had to put a razor blade inside it. :eek:
Left me with loads of cuts.
I tested the "Fusion" range before they were released onto the market, and found them to be far easier to clog than other Gillette razors.
But, as I have extremely tough facial hair, I dont expect my results to be widespread, and most people I know prefer the Fusion to the Mach 3, my personal favourite wet shave.
Yeah, I think that's what it is.
I have fast growing, tough facial hair; as well. It's only the Mach 3 that can deal with it. :eek:
Is that you Doreen ?
Absolutely! I never cut myself now and with the right combination of hot flannel and oil it gives a SUPERB shave. My ONLY gripe is the bloody price:mad::mad: about £9 for 4 blades is a RIP-OFF and no wonder they get stolen. So I make each blade last as long as possible......
...........
AND HERE IS AN IMPORTANT TIP..........IF YOU HAVE THE FUSION POWER, YOU DONT NEED TO BUY THE FUSION POWER BLADES.........THE FUSION BLADES AND ABOUT £1 CHEAPER ARE EXACTLY THE SAME:eek:DONT BE CONNED! Ok I'll stop shouting now;)
Mach3 for me too. I buy off ebay. Genuine blades...average price £17.00 for 3 x 5 packs
Will never buy from supermarket again...absolute rip off.
Men don't listen to these adverts the way that marketing execs think they do and they find that a company who tries to "convince" them to pay more money for essentially the same shave more than a little patronising.
It's mach 3 for me all the way.
Will have a look at Ebay for the blades:)
Just bought 16 for £15 inc postage off Ebay. Thanks for the advice.:)
Normally WS razors are far inferior to anything Gillette comes up with, but this is the exception to the rule. I think they're still on half-price offer in Boots too.
Totally agree. I've been using the King of Shaves Azor for a while - and it's a great razor - but I really love the Hydro 5. Haven't used Gilette for a few years, and can't see me hurrying back now.
As a dragdiva I can also say that Mach 3 works well on my legs too!
People have been using safety razors for 100 years and not had any problems with them.
As a recent convert to a safety razor got to love the low running costs and a close shave never cut myself with it yet either.
