Gillette Mach3 Cartridge 12-Count

Blade life is good. Copes well with both light and heavy growth, shaves very closely and rarely leaves an unshaven hair behind. Blades should be changed every 3-6 shaves, depending on personal preference. Mach3 blades have an advanced Indicator lubricating strip with a blue stripe that fades away when the optimal Mach3 shaving experience is no longer achieved.

Gillette Mach3 Cartridge Review

I’m always amazed at how much these razors cost, but when I compare to other options, I always come back to the Mach 3. I’ve tried electric razors, but anything that’s cheaper that buying Mach 3 blades can’t do a thing about shaving the hairs on my neck. I’d guess that I use a blade every month and a half (long after the lubricating strip is gone), which makes this cost about $16 / year. A fine deal if you ask me.

Gillette Fusion Manual Replacement Cartridges Review

I’ve been very happy with the Mach III for the past few years –but then a Fusion razor and cartridge came in the mail and I figured I’d give it a try.

I’m probably a good one to test razors… see my photograph–not only do I shave my face, (though I typically have a goatee), but I also shave my entire head as well.

I’ve been using the same Fusion blade now –daily on my face, and just about every third day on my head– and despite some claims to the contrary, it’s still going strong… after almost three weeks!!

Why has my blade lasted this long, despite my pretty heavy usage? EVERY time I shave, after thoroughly rinsing the blade, I GIVE IT A QUICK SPRAY WITH SHOWER CLEANER. (Such as “Clean Shower” or any of the no-wipe cleaners that you spray after using the shower.)

Then I set the razor so it’s standing with the cartridge end down.

This does two things. The shower cleaner ensures that no film of water remains to dry on the edges of the blades, leaving spots for microscopic rusty areas to form,) and standing the razor blade-side-down makes sure that gravity takes any debris or water that MIGHT be left on the blade, DOWN and AWAY from the blade edge, since the edge of the blades face UP when you have the cartridge down.

Prior to doing this on the Mach III blades, I’d also get about 3 or 4 good shaves out of a blade… but once I tried it, I got as many as 30. It makes a HUGE difference! I should also point out that I almost never get nicks and cuts. (I’ve been shaving my head for about 4 years, and I think I’ve nicked it shaving ONCE… .part of the reason is because I’m very careful about using my blade-cleaning technique.)

Note to Gillette… Send me a lifetime supply of Fusion cartridges and I’ll consider removing the blade-life extending tip from this review!
