I am curious as to how good the razors actually are. According to the web page for a $1 a month you get four 2-blade razors. That's a pretty good deal and if the razors last for more than a month you'll have a nice stockpile of razors and can cancel your subscription for a while.

Yeah let me know. I use Mach-3 Turbo blades to shave my delicate skin. If you have good luck with them I might try it out. I'm tired of paying $20 a month on blades.

I use the same blades now and hate the expensive blades. Gonna sign up later today and we will see how it goes. Remember I am currently shaving my head also so if they last a month it will be a good thing!

Go to a straight razor, never buy a blade again :)

If you really want to I have several you can try. You would really need to do some reading on how it's done so you don't come away bloody though :)

Yes. I don't know why anyone would still use blades. Especially the expensive ones.

Even though I collect them I've never used one. I do have plans, but at the current moment I've been into double edge razors. I've cut myself pretty good with those as well. Ill step up to the straight sooner or later

I stopped using electric when I was 20 and have never looked back. What a horrible shave!

Maybe it's a generational thing. I don't like to spend a bunch of time getting ready in the mornings so I've used an electric for about 20+ years. You do get a better shave with a regular razor.

I only take a minute or 2 to use a regular razor. I have been thinking about the double edge blade also.

Demon(or anyone else) I can hook y'all up with a simple DE razor. They will still cut you good if your not careful. I think most people will give up before they ever really learn how to use it properly. To give them a close shave

With the Mach 3 I get a super fast shave that's decent and I never worry about cutting myself. With the DE it takes more time and prepping, but it is a better shave. Sometimes it is a hassle to use it though

The main thing that dulls blades is not use, but water. If you dry your blades as well as you can after each use they'll last longer. I've heard of some using hair dryers but I don't go that far. I only change blades every other month or so. I need to figure out some time exactly how much I do spend on blades a year.
