    If you wonder what the difference between all the Gillette Razors and cartridge blades are, you are in the right place. What are these Gillette shavers and what does one Gillette Shaver do different from the other?
    I bought out these various Razors personally overtime, tried them over an extended period, compared them side by side and finally have a detailed personal review.

    Ally thank you for explaining the differences in the first of all the razors and then the blades, it seems that every year they bring a new razor out with newer and more expensive blades , of all the years that I have been shaving I have never noticed the name of the model of the razor was on the inner side of the handle now that I know it will be much easier to choose the correct blades for the numerous razors as well as sourcing the cheapest on the internet. Much appreciated upon your research.

    I always used the Fusion 5 and really liked it, but thought I’d give the ProGlide Shield a try. I don’t know what happened, but the ProGlide just completely ripped my face to shreds. It was as if I had an allergic reaction to something on the blade or something. My entire face broke out into like these bumps. I don’t know if you’d call it razor burn or not, but it was horrible. I only tried the ProGlide that one time and then went right back to the Fusion 5. I still really like it.

    • @allydz

      @@allydz Yeah I really can’t explain it. Like I said I used the Fusion 5 for quite a while and loved it and I guess I just thought perhaps the newer ProGlide that was supposed to be a smoother shave would be better, but it was a disaster for me personally. In the end I guess it’s not like it was the end of the world or anything. Again, like I said before, I just went right back to the Fusion 5, but it probably took about 2 weeks for the bumps or rash or whatever it was to go away.

    Ally would you say the 5 blade fusion proglide gives a super close shave, more so that the tri blade ones? And also looks like the motorized handle increased the shave quality even more as in closer? I get idea the dual blade skin guard won't give as close a shave?

    • @allydz
      @allydz  Před 6 měsíci

      Hey Jack, the Mach 3 doesn’t stand a chance against Fusion, now that’s not a rule of thumb but what my experience says. The motorised handles definitely avoid dragging while giving you a very close shave. The skin guard is the only dual I have used, they won’t shave as close as the other 2

      I have been using a cartridge razor for a long time, and am pretty happy with the Gillette Fusion Power which I have been using for several years - and it is a pretty good razor. I have also just recently bought & tested the Gillette Labs Exfoliating one (got sucked in by the advertising, and promotions) - and while its a cool looking product - the shave is not really as good, and the blades lose their sharpness after a relatively short time.
      The cost of the cartridges is not the major issue - I just want a great shave without too much fuss.
      I did look at the heated Gillette as well - but it just appears too much of a gimmick - without significant shaving improvements.
      So I am just toying with the idea of using a safety razor, and while you make it look easy, and rave about it - it does look a lot more effort - 3 passes, doing the whole brush thing etc. But I think I should try it at some point go see.
      And I will make sure I watch your other videos first! The ones I have seen so far are excellent - all very well explained.

    Do any of these cartridges clean easily and effectively under the faucet after shaving? One of my problems with one of the old cartridge models is hair and shaving cream getting stuck and not coming out between shaves.

    • @allydz
      @allydz  Před 2 lety +4

      I find when I shave every (2-3 days), there is 0 clog. The gap between blades on all the fusion carts is pretty decent as well and they wash off with an easy rinse. Also, I have found that when I use artisan soaps, they clog more as most soaps have a level of fat in them. I don’t have that issue with gels and foams when combined with the fusions.

      @@AlpcanCan-kg5nd Thank you and sure I will answer these to the breast of my knowledge.
      Cleaning: my experience with all razors in general has taught me to use a trimmer if my growth is 3 days plus or 2mm+ in growth. This makes sure that I don’t irritate my skin with multiple passes and also avoids clogging the blades with longer hair. The blade gap between them all is almost the same, I could tell the difference personally.
      Blade Angle : Cartridge razors come with the blades loaded in an angle that is best suitable when the cartridge is placed flush against the skin surface, so you don’t need to worry about blade angles with them

    All cartridge razors are gimmicks to get us to purchase overpriced cartridges again and again. I stepped up to shaving the old fashioned way using the old double edge blade in a classic razor and am now getting the best and most enjoyable shaves of all. Plus, I get to try a variety of high quality blades far better than those my father and grandfather had available. In addition, the DE blades are far less costly. A great DE blade costs between ten and twenty five cents each and lasts for 6 to 9 shaves. After experimenting by going back and forth between my old cartridge razor and the tried and true DE way of shaving, I will never bother with expensive cartridges again. I get a superior close shave for less cost and enjoy the experience of going back in history while shaving! I get to connect with the past while enjoying a superior outcome. Shaving is not a chore, it is an experience and a superior result.

      Well you are right. Cartridges are really expensive. But for me because I have very very sensitive skin even I Shave very carefully with highest quality DE blades then for the close baby face I get bloody face.
      Now I'm using the DE blades for my fist and second pass of shave . Then I use the Gillette Fusion for the Final pass so my face doesn't bleed and I get the closest shave.

      Meh, maybe.
      I still recommend the cartridge “safety razors” for dads of small kids. My sister wanted to shave like our dad when she was little and grabbed his DE razor. She has a permanent scar on her cheek. The cartridge razors are called “safety razors” for a reason.

      @@totallyfrozen DE razors are called Safety Razors as opposed to straight edge razors great grampa used. Cartridge razors are not called Safety Razors although they are safer than Safety Razors.
