Unleash The Nade Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 I'm becoming increasingly pissed off at the price of razor blades and feel we're being completely ripped off. I just paid £8.00 for a pack of 4 Gillette Mach3 blades , which probably cost pennies to produce.I also saw dime other Gillette multi-blades, Aloe infused, super glide fuckers,that were £15.00 for 4 ! Any P&Ber' suggest any good blade alternatives which give a decent shave without cutting your face to bits? Maybe we should al grow beards and boycott the b*****ds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not very good but it's more exciting than the modern razors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fucking despise buying razor blades because of their hefty pricetag. I've got sensitive skin so I use the Gillette Fusion Power blades as they give me a smoother shave but £15 for 4.is a complete ripoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers! I might do that.The Gillette Fusion Proglide Power has given by far the best shave from the ones I've tried but I don't think I've tested they ones.

I'd imagine you'll get a couple of blades free with the razor so worth a go at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to think the Gillettes were great too, but recently it felt as so they were pulling the hairs out rather than cutting them. Just occurred to me that I got my last blades very cheap off the internet so maybe they're crappy knock offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 f**k shaving with a razor. Haven't done it since probably 2010. Use an electronic one, and since about December 2014 have just used a trimmer to keep my fine facial fuzz from getting too wild. Due a wee trim now I think but can't really be arsed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried the manual Gillette Proglide blades but I thought they were shit compared to the power blades Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gavin_3110 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 I just use the shitey disposables out Tesco. Not the very cheapest ones, but the ones with the wee strip, do the job with shaving gel rather than foam.My girlfriend had me on some subscription jobbies for a bit and never thought much of them. Clogged up and were blunt after at most two uses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamamafegan Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 f**k buying razor blades. Electric razors all the way. I've never understood why people spend so much money on razor blades when you can buy an electric one that will last you for years and years.
