    Try a vintage Gillette Tech razor, one of the mildest safety razors ever made. Also was standard issue to US and British military during WW2. The Tech always delivers a reliable, smooth shave. Gillette made millions of Techs and they can still be had for cheap, and made to last. Pair a Tech with Astra SP blades and be amazed at how good the shave is.

    I have been using Harry's for 4 years or so. I used to have Dollar Shave Club, and prior to that was a variety of Gillette, Schick, and a safety razor. I was disappointed with the safety razor, single blade and needed to be extra careful with it else an easy cut. Gillette and Schick was a toss-up between both brands, basically whichever was cheaper at the time and neither of them was cheap when it comes to their head replacement but a lot more comfortable than a safety razor for sure. Dollar Shave Club was the new kid on the block and I did admit that the home delivery concept was nice, and the replacement blades were so much cheaper but I was having problems with their shipments and from time to time there the handle was nice, but the razor heads was still a bit expensive in general but far cheaper than the other two. Eventually got tired of them and kept with them cause it was cheaper but had a necessity to have until I stumbled upon Harry's and their products. I have it a try and instantly I liked the Razor head selections because at the time DSC had 2, 4 or 6 blades per head and additional cost for each upgrade and Harry's had 5 blades for less as well as a much more simplify shopping experience and select your order or skip months if you didn't shave all that often. Overall I stick with Harry's and sometimes forget about them until I get a shipping update from FedEx that I am getting a delivery sent to me. Realizing "oh yeah I was running out of razors replacement this month". Although I do have to admit DSC does have a LOT of many options to choose from in terms of toiletries though they do get to be expensive VERY fast and is a subscription-based service it can get out of hand if you're not keeping an eye on it like a hawk. Long story short, I like Harry's they are simple and fair with their products, they don't push you to hop into a new product with every checkout or promotional item that comes with some sort of hidden fees like additional shipping fees (had happened to me with DSC), so if you are a cheap person like myself, Harry's is the best choice to go with while having a good product that rivals those of Schick's and Gillette's offering without the burden of using different heads that doesn't go with just a handle.

    I've been using a safety razor and considering how cheap they're you can use a new blade each shave if you wish which can make a huge difference. Cartridge is better for me but the price makes me use the cartridge longer which makes the overall experience worse, also think about the waste on each cartridge.

    @@azilius5302 The saftey razor handle will last a very long time (perhaps a lifetime if you get 316 grade stainless steel) and the number of shaves per blade depends on how many passes you do and if you do the whole face (some people do less as they have beards etc). For a cheap DE blade circa 5p then expect it to do around 6 passes (maybe 3 shaves at 2 passes per shave) but for a high end DE blade circa 25p then you might get around 14 passes (maybe 7 shaves at 2 passes per shave). Budget around £10 pa for blades if you but them in bulk from the right places. Regular fresh blades are a lot better then sweating a cartridge too long because it was expensive.

    @dashingonadime4225 жыл бұрын

    Great contrast between these two. I personally use safety razors because it's just a more pleasant experience for me, but if I ever went back to regular multi-blade razors I think I would go for Gillette. This mostly for the simple fact that I can trust the stability of a hundred plus year old company owned by Proctor and Gamble more than that of what is still essentially a baby of a company. I am not interested in risking my handles becoming useless at any point. But I definitely agree with you that Harry's is a more likable company and I'm sure there are little to no differences in the quality of the products. I do use their body wash and it is fantastic.

I was gonna buy a 5 blade gillete razor pack the other day, because I already have a handle, but noticed the store only had 2 types of them, and those types didn't fit my handle, so I just went home and used my dull razor. Idk if I missed it and it was actually there, if my razor is even in production anymore, or what. They should probably make their attachment mechanism universal and just have different handles for style and comfort options.

    If I go about 3 days without a shave Harry's just rips my stubble out. I'm half japanese so my stubble doesn't grow fast. Maybe 1 or 2mm in a few days. Just plain hurts when I shave. I'm using a decent Edge brand gel cream also. I've tried leaving the shaving cream on my face for a few minutes before shaving I've tried different concentrations of water and shaving cream nothing seems to help. I truly believe it's just the razors. Literally feels like I'm just dry shaving. Trying to find something that works better.

    Both Harry's and DSC are now owned by Unilever. Basically a Unilever version of P&G's Gillette(minus the tech that Gillette posses that is). It's not the same company anymore. Go for Schick or Dorco instead.

    I find Harry’s and DSC razors aren’t great for sensitive skin. I was using Harry’s for a few months, but then Gillette came out with the SkinGuard and it’s completely blown all other cartridges out of the water for me. I have desperately tried to get into DE shaving, but it takes too many passes (with, across and against the grain) to get a close shave, which causes mad skin irritation. So, coming back to cartridges I think and, as I said, the SkinGuard is incredible for sensitive skin.

    I have wanted to like Harrys, but after 2 years of trying, im going back to my basic Mach III Gillette. The Harrys blades just go dull too fast. I have to believe they are using an inferior metal or an inferior edging process. After recently shaving off my 1/4" beard with a two week old Harrys blade and plugging up the Blade slots, while its tugging and pulling - I give up. I routinely used a mach III blade for 2 months !

    I shave my head all the time. Every few days or say, with Gillette the prices are more expensive and the blades don't last as long however with Harry's, the shave is closer and the blades last longer. With Gillette I can get 2 weeks out of one blade, with Harry's I actually got a month out of each blade. I purchased 12 blades from Harry's for $20 USD and Gillette is $45U SD for the same amount. Go with Harry's, thank me later.

  • @harizon8862

    OneBlade Core does it for me. It's just as easy to use as Harry's, but the result is so much better since it only has one blade on it. Also, you save money over time since cartridges are more expensive than SE razor blades. Though I would also recommend a shaving brush since you can get even closer to the skin without damaging it.

    I went back to Gillette after Harry’s added the useless Trimmer Blade. Maybe it works for squaring off sideburns, but the cartridge is too bulky for any precision work and it often cut me under the nose while using the main blades. Then I had to stop the bleeding before starting my day. Now I’m using a Gillette MP-3 and inexpensive disposables for tight in work under my nose. With such limited use a 6 pack of disposables should last for years.

    I don’t think the Gillette Mach 3 will ever be bettered, 2 blades isn’t enough and you get pull when shaving, 4 blades is too much, the blades get clogged up. I don’t know what the sales have been for other products but I’d bet that the Mach 3 is the best selling razor of all time (possibly after Bic disposables).

    I gave Harry’s a try when it first started popping up on my local WalMart. It really irritated my skin and gave me the most bumps on my face since I first started shaving with single blade razors. I like to shave against the grain and the WalMart brand, Equate, has really been a good razor. They’re relatively cheap, are always in stock and provide me with a good shave. I also only need to shave about twice a month because I don’t care if I have a stubble and because my facial hair grows slowly.

    Gillette has dropped their prices and it really reflects in the most current quality. I have been using Mach 3 forever, never had a reason to stop using until recently. The blades I purchased from a well known pharmacy chain were sharp but they seemed to be angled wrong. This happened the last 2 times I bought blades at 2 different locations. It’s obvious in my opinion they changed the materials or the place of manufacture. I am not even gonna bother sending the unused blades back. I will try Harry’s.

    Because of my Amer-Indian(Guatemalan) background, I only need to shave three of four times a week. I use a Philips/Norelco electric shaver(leaves my face as smooth as a baby's behind), then to "fine tune" my face, for that "ideal"/optimum shave, I use a Gillette Fusion 5 or comparable, or one of my three shaving handles(with the "ball", without and the Fusion power[vibrates with a AAA battery]) and a Fusion cartridge razor(still using the same one for over six months) that has a precision trimmer on the back for the corners of my mouth and sideburns. I use the disposables (Bic)razors that the hotel staff leaves in my room if I don't want to clean my electric one. Need to shave slowly and with GREAT care for a decent shave. P.S. I still use my Mach 3, Mach 3 Turbo AND my Gillette Sensor(had it since the early 1990's) until my five packs of SENSOR cartridges run out. Once in a while, I use my Schick Hydro 5 as I like the weight of the handle and it leaves me with a decent shave too.

    Double Edge Safety razors and choosing your own razor blades is the best and is less irritating. Using proper shaving soaps and prep will help the less experienced shaver still using cartridge razors too. Shaving like our grandpa is also better for the environment as razors last a lifetime and blades have no plastic waste and can be recycled. Not to mention razor blades are much cheaper than cartridge refills.

    At 74 years of age, I have tried both products. They are both good. From your review there is no slam dunk winner but you missed one major difference - customer service. Set everything else aside, which is the best to deal with? I wrote to Harry's via email and received a meaningful, prompt exchange. Try contacting Gillette. There is a phone number, but when I contact a company I prefer it in writing. Gillette provide no email contact or even an address. I do not want to provide meaningful feedback to a call taker who may or may not pass it on. Bottom line, I do not do business with a company who makes it difficult for customers to reach them. They are putting their needs ahead of their customers'.
