the extra mess of taking off the pan and spinning the motor dry is just to much work for me.

MACH 20 FTW

No. I waiting till after I buy a house some day for that kinda renno project. I don't know if I've ever met a girl (or land lord) that would let me get away with that kinda action. she already hates the rings. Not cause they don't do a good job, they just don't do such a good job for her.

OK I used to be a fan of Gillette, still have the Fusion too... but one day I was back home and I forgot my Fusion here. So I went to WalMart and hooked up w/ some Schick 3 blade disposables, and holy crap - they are incredibly comfortable and cheap too! I haven't touched the Fusion since then, and have continued to buy the Schick disposables.

Granted, the Fusion is an improvement over the Mach3 - but it just doesn't compare.... its even comforable enough for the private zone and armpits too.

Don't get suckered into using the Fusion. Yeah it was free, but when you gotta buy blades it's like $40 apeice or something ridiculous LOL

I knew you were going to post this. I saw this a long time ago, hummed and hawed about it. I think it's like 10 bucks for it right?

And you like it?

lol...I think shoppers charged me 19.99 for it.

Personally, I like it. Keeps a constant angle to the scalp...I always get the wrong angle shaving the back of my head cause I find it hard to determine where the blade is compaired to my head so, i get a lot of razor burn back there. And the angle also keeps the blade constant sharp. I used to go through blades at least one blade each time i shave with my old Mach 3 Turbo.

Really? Because I saw it about two years ago and it was about 10 bucks. I don't think it had the wheels in the back.

I will look tomorrow. I have a package to go pick up. Thanks for the info, I may try it now oh great Buddah!

Use some body lotion on your head after you shave. Even if you don't put a little on too keep it from drying out

What you do with Vaseline, I do not want to know. =D j/k.

I normally use products from J.R. Watkins lineup for hand lotions and what not cause they are made from all natural ingredients. Burt's Bees's lineup of products are pretty good too. I'll have to make a run to Shoppers tomorrow to find a non scented one from them.
