- #GILLETTE This is a non-sponsored review.
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.
Gillette Razor review - Навчання та стиль
FINALLY a straight-forward video on all of the Gilette razors without the time-wasting. This was very thorough and professional! Thanks for your time and money in making it XD
@DuaLeaD Cheers buddy!! That’s what I aim to do with all my videos.
Very in depth review. Thank you so much for creating and sharing your personal experience with these razors, take care!
@Angel my pleasure buddy 👍🏼😊. This brings me lots of joy that the video serves its purpose till today 🤣. Every time I see a comment, it just makes all the effort feel like it was worth it.
This is the best review of Gillette's razors I've ever seen. Have you thought about doing a video like this about Schick razors? I really appreciate your honesty and the many details you provide.
Cheers brah!! I absolutely have that in the pipeline. Work, new house and life things are keeping me very busy atm 🤣🤣. Things should settle soon, then I’m going to be quite regularly doing a fair amount of reviews and comparisons.
Thanks man ! This has been one of the most important watches of 2022
Scott… Thanks for the love brother. Plz like, share & Sub 👍🏼😊
Simply the best video available on the Gillette razors - more informative than the official website! Thank you!
Took 1 for the team. Cheers brother 🙂👍
Mr. AllyDz … GREAT!! You are obviously very thorough in your presentation and the video is fabulous. I had no idea about razors so Thank You very much. The information you provided is long over due. You are doing a big service for Gillette and I hope they appreciate what you are doing.
@Rocky Robar.. thanks buddy. I don't think Gillette care and they love the confusion they cause probably 🤣 My goal was to break it down for users like us cuz I was lost and confused for ages till I just decided I need to break this down 🙂✌️
Your videos have great details. Good information. Looking forward for more.
Thanks Benedicta ❤️❤️
I use the fusion 5 proglide power with flexball, it gives the closest shave for me in my opinion . I have also used the manual version but did not give as close a shave as the POWER
Agree Steve, it’s one of my all time favourites too. Great minds🤝
thanks
This is the only place I could find to help explain the differences of the Gillette razors. Thank you very much! A very well made video! I, now, know which of the Gillette razors I will purchase. Have a good one!
@dannyethridge Pleasure is all mine ✌️🙂
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.
@eanbruce821 Cheers, Gillette is surely great at branding and repackaging the same stuff. 🙃👍
Amazing video thanks for guidance, got rid of all the confusion! I hope u make an updated version of this video if possible and one last question 😅, What razor brand and type do u personally use?
I use a lot different of different razors in rotation but my favourite cartridge razor is the fusion Proglide power
BEST Breakdown, Thank you!
@LAshadow8 Thanks buddy 😀🙏🏼
Great review video, going to give those a go after using Mach3 Turbo for 30 years. Thank you.
@Scott C.. I read it takes 3 months for your skin & hair to adjust to a new razor. You could definitely feel the 5 blades carts are more aggressive but they work for me. My Mach 3 just sits there now for years. Hope you have an enjoyable experience.
Excellent explanation, thanks! 🙂I was looking to change my old M3 Power razor with a new Gillette one and was a bit confused with all the available range of products, but your video made everything much clearer. I will go with ProGlide Power and maybe pair it with the ProShield blades too later on.
@Dragos Ionescu Pleasure is all mine 🙏🏼😊. Just an update, the new orange coloured striped cartridges that come with the fusion Proglide are basically the prosheild blades. So as long as you are getting the new rebranded cartridges (orange coloured stripes), you are good
@@allydz Ah, I was just thinking about this, but wasn't sure 😀. I ordered the new orange ones and they looked pretty similar as the yellow ProShield ones when looking at pictures, good to know that they're both the same.
@@dragosionescu1 Gillette must have watched this too hopefully and upgraded the razor 🤣
@@allydz Yeah exactly, otherwise Proshield won't have a selling point anymore. 😆
I love using the King C Gillette safety razor, it cuts the hair on my neck very well
Tysm!!! Exactly what I was looking for. Needed to know if the aqua grip 5 fitted the fusion body. Thanks.
@Manu Cotarelo it sure does bud. Aqua is my least favourite cart though, they don’t have a precision trimmer blade which I find quite useful personally
Thanks for the overview and the tips! I'm posting a comment for future reference to know the perfect match 😉 Gillette Fusion ProGlide Flexball Power + Fusion5 ProShield blades
Awesome 😎
Well done!! Much appreciated
Thank you 🙏🏼😀
Great content.....THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Does the “Powered” Fusion Proshield handle fit into any of the stands? If so, which one. I want te get a stand for my powered handle but don’t know if it fits into any of the stands. Great video by the way!!!
I hear you brother and I too liked for it for a long time. They don’t have 1 yet, let me know if you find it.
This was a super nice review.
@Ankit Saggi Thank you 😊
Excellent video and very informative 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Cheers bud 👍🏼
Informative. Love your video. Subbed
Awesome 👌 I'm very happy you loved it. Thanks Terence.
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.
That’s not ideal at all. I feel like our skin gets used to something and sometimes it just doesn’t like something else. It’s great to know the Fusion works well for you 👍🏼🙂
@@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.
@@Whoopdido777 That’s it 👍🏼👌🏼
I have a bald head so I need right razor .I keep searching over for that right razor.. i heard about the fusion glide.
@@geno5169 did it work for you?
Nicely explained. loved it
Thanks brother 👍🏼
I have used most if not all, I used the power Mach 3 and it is from that razor I got the pleasure of ingrown hairs that took a dermatologist to poke a tweeze out. I really just like the Gillette black beauty or slim adjustable.
@Prentiss Yeates… DE is the way to go for ya brother 👍🏼
Amazon has a great break down of these in a chart but I did find the razor roughness of each type to be informative in this video. The marketing pages never tell you this.
Thank you 😀 🙏
Can you post a link to this information on Amazon. I couldn't find it.....Thanks
@@gman5986I hope you didn’t need that link after this video 😂
Great video. Can you use the non cartridge safety razor with normal aerosol gel, or do you need to use the special brush and soap?
Cheers mate. You sure can use aerosol gel with safety razors, however the experience won't be as good. I would recommend using a quality soap or shaving cream with the safety razor. Feel free to check out my other videos with safety razors, there is also a video I made on cartridge vs safety razor. If you listen to the commentary before the shave, I talk about the differences with soaps, gels, creams, etc. Hope this helps.
@@allydz It helps, thank you -
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.
@@sgoody1 Fusion power or Proglide Powers are the best in carts without a doubt, so really you are sorted already. When I need to be in & out of the bath, I just grab some shave gel and the Fusion Proglide power automatically (despite the choice of many various handles I have). When I want fun & pampering, I go safety razor.

Greetings from Dhaka, Bangladesh. Great UA-cam review brother. Stay well and safe.
Thanks Mohammed and I wish you great health too 👍🙂
Thank you that was so helpful
Ziad.. Pleasure is all mine 👍
Great review!
Thank you 🙏🏼😃
What would've been really useful is to show the 'ends' (connector) of each of these blades. I have a bunch of razor blades with no label (or handles) with them that I can't identify. So I don't know which handle to buy.
Thanks Jeff, i have reviewed razors individually as well. Check those out. Hope it helps.
can you do an updated video with the GIlette Labs razors?
@Corvette72778 I have recently done a compression video of the Gillette labs vs Fusion. Check it out, it should give you a detailed understanding of everything about the razor. Hope it helps
Thank you for the effort

Great explanation, got me out of trouble
Haha.. Cheers @Mauricio
Hi AllyDz..., Excellent video and very informative, and thank you for sharing the video... So good...; I watched the video, not once..., but TWICE... I even took notes... Mike in Montana USA P.S.: I purchased your choice... Mike :)
Mike, Thank you so much for your glowing comment!! Made my day…. I’m so glad it helped, it was the purpose of making this video and it’s hitting the mark 😊.
Your choice & my choice are apparently the choice that a lot of people have landed on with the best overall razor 🪒 🧔🏻♂️. Cheers my man!!

I know I'm not a guy but thanks for the video it was really informative and helpful in explaining the razors and blades. I recently switched from a woman's 3 blade razor because I felt like it wasn't working for me to the men's 5 blade and love them. I use them for shaving my legs, arms, and armpits. Love the fusion family razors!
Hey Rayven, That's great to hear, thanks for watching. And the channel is not just for guys 🙂👍
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?
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
Excellent video - thank you!
@David Sotir Cheers brother 👍🏼😎
Fantastic video! Thank you!
Cheers 😀✌️
On Amazon there toting two types with trimmer and I bought both and I see or feel no trimmer. Did that design change? The blade use to stick out further but I can’t seem to find those anymore. I bought Pro Glide and Fusion Power. I can see with a jewelers loupe it could be considered a trimmer but not the ones I remember. Maybe so no one cuts themselves.
Hey Chris, all of the Fusion blades have the trimmer blade. I would double check the authenticity of the blades TBH. It doesn’t sound right.
@@allydz I saw the trimmer but it’s not what I remember. I’m thinking they changed the design at some point or I’m thinking of a different razor. I did switch to electric razor for 10 years. Thanks! Good video
Does the limited edition pro glide handle work with the travel kit?
Hi Salman, it doesn’t. Great question, bdw. The travel case & plastic kit both work with just the basic regular handle designs.
One of the annoyances of my life, is trying to buy new blades for a fusion powerglide , store assistants have no knowledge of the multiple models, and many times my wife comes back with the wrong blades, there is no need of these many models.
Captain Morgan, it is honestly the most frustrating things I found personally as well. I asked them the difference and they read marketing stuff with a blank look. That's when I decided to do this video with the hope that it helps others like me.
Bu video altında ne kadar güzel yorumlar varmış.Yıllar yıllar evvel aynı konuda Gillette Sensor dan yeterli stok sonrası geleneksel tıraşa dönmüştüm.
@AllyDZ what a great breakdown of Gillette shaving products.
@Jason Miller Thanks buddy 👍🏼😎
Hello, is the gel that you were talking about proshield blades a marketing gimmick
or actually makes a difference
It’s works brother. It’s a lubricant strip that activates when in contact with water and helps reduce skin irritability. It does ware off as u keep shaving though. Not a marketing gimmick in my opinion and it’s on most quality cart razors.
The Gillette Fusion Proshield are still being sold? I ask you that question because the fact of Gillette ProGlide Shield being released.
@Dany Do you have a link to the product. I cannot find info on any Gillette Proglide Shield
Really really helpful, thanks！
Pleasure is all mine 🙂✌️

I’m really confused between the mach3 and the mach3 3d. Can you please tell me which one should I pick?
Subscribe to the channel my friend. You can then go to my videos and find a full video on Mach 3 turbo 3D and Mach 3 turbo on there
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.
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.
Günlerdir bu sorunun cevabını arıyordum.
Bakalım cevap ne olacak?
@@allydz Cevabı merak ediyordum.Mutlu oldum...Mach3 ile proglide bıçakları arasındaki açıklıktan ve tıkanma,temizlenme konusunda pek az bilgiye rastladım.Sizce hangisi daha kolay temizlenir?
Pardon,son soru: Cihazların bıçak açıları hakkında da pek bilgi bulamadım.Bu konunun yüz tahrişi,kıl dönmesi ve temizlik üzerinde etkisi nelerdir?
Teşekkürler.
@@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
On point
Amazing content
Thank you 👍🏼, I’m happy you liked it
can you please tell where i can get those travel case for mach 3 turbo and stand i can't find it on gillete website
@sachin They used to be available on the Gillette website, I couldn’t find it too. I think they have discontinued it or are updating their store online. That’s what the Gillette Australia website is saying at this stage.
After how many shaves Gillette fusion 5 proglide or mach 3 blades should be change?
It varies for every Individual. My rule is when you feel it’s blunt, change it.
Hi just wanted to ask your personal opinion …. Is the heated razor better than the flexball power proglide irrespective of the price
If money is out of the equation: The heated razor feels the best, especially in winter. If it's summer, I wouldn't bother touching the heated razor.
The power razor has the best glide.
They both have the Flexi ball feature. So it honestly comes down to the mood and weather.
@@allydz oh thanks for the quick response on this, in my area its 9 months of heat so no point of mine investing on the heated razor else would had surely got it......plus it also does not have the vibration feature which I love on my proglide razor
@@sujoynandi1 All good my friend. Stick to the power razor is what i do in general when i need a good cartrdige shave, it's the razor at the end of the day. Heated razor is a luxury feature in my opinion.
I always have trouble taking out a new shave clip
Maybe the handle is gone faulty?? Normally it’s a simple push of a button : )
What about the blue 3 comfort is it good for down there hair?
I prefer buddy trimmers over razor for the body. Specially in sensitive areas, something with a guard to avoid direct contact.
Question? I have an extraordinary thick beard. I struggle to get a clean shave usually shaving the same spot three or four times.Can you suggest a razor and blades?
Sure Bob, what do you use at the moment?
@@allydz Wilkerson 3 blade
@@BobJones-dq9mx have you tried the Hydro 5 and Gillette fusion Proglide? Also look for a good quality soap.
@@allydz ok

interesting review thanks
Thanks Alan
Can you please suggest a good razor with affordable cartridge . ? My father is using Gillette mach 3 turbo since more than 5 yrs
Hey bro, firstly how are you finding the Mach 3? It's a great razor to start with. It's difficult for me to recommend a razor for you as everyone's skin type, hair type and thickness, etc vary. Judging from the kind comments that a few subscribers, this video will definitely been a good guide. I would consider looking into the parts of the video where I talk about level of aggressiveness of the various cartridges.
From a budget perspective, Mach 3 is decent. If not look into safety razors. I have made some videos with them as well. Hope this helps.
Which blade head on the fusion gives the closest shave ?
@Danny Elder Personally for me it’s the Fusion Proglide. I would stress that they really are different for individuals based of skin types, beard thickness etc. My beard is slightly thick and skin does well with aggressive razors too. Hope that helps…
Did you make the same with Wilkinson rasors
Not yet mate, but it’s definitely on the cards to happen soon 🙂👍🏼
I just found you’re channel I really like it and enjoy watching you’re vedio’s .I’am bald and have alot of trouble finding the right blade for my head.
Thank you for your kind words. What have you used so far? Also, what has worked the best so far for you?
@@allydz I have tried so many blades.I do have a Gillette blade. I even tried cheap blade’s on my head to save money. That didn’t work good on my head. So I’ve v stayed with Gillette blade. Just having trouble with picking a right blade.
@@allydz because there’s so many blade’s out there. I want the right one smooth save head
@@geno5169 It definitely is the tricky part to pick what works for your best. Personally for me, the Fusion Proglide or Prosheild is what works the best. Prosheild has a balance of lubrocation as well as strong 5 blades.
@@allydz the fusion pro glide will be good for my bald head?
What do you think is the best mach 3 turbo or fusion Pro glide ;
@petros tsekak both are great and absolutely fine. If I have to pick just 1, it would be the fusion Pro glide with the power handle. Reason being it's smooth glide, efficiency and precision trimmer.
Very good review. you got a new subscriber^^ I use booth Gilette and Wilkinson Sword for Shaving my head. Not everything is available here in Germany but i got my hands on the black and gold edition Gilette Labs and will try this razor for my head shave. ATM mostly using Wilkinson Hydro 5 skin protection sensitive and the Gilette Proglide . Both very good for headshave sometime the Hydro 5 for my sensitive Skin better but this depends on the week. if you want i tell my experience here with the Labs :) The heated labs is interesting but damn 65 Euro= 107 Australian Dollar in Sale is heavy...
@Larseisbaer thanks for the sub buddy. All great razors you mentioned mate. Please feel free to share your experience, hopefully it will help someone. The channel is about everyone’s experiences being shared, people often read comments from various individuals and get something out of it. Cheers 😎✌🏼
Hi AllyDz
Does the fusion 5 power black handle one’s power button doesn’t give the click sound?
Because the old fusion 5 power handles (Chrome handles) did give a sound
You are right, they also don’t have lights on the power button as well if I remember correctly.
Button button click sound?
@@aimanmohammed2035 Like I said, yes you are right. It doesn’t have the clicking sound
Thank you 😊
Hi AllyDz
I just wanted to know which razor handle is the best
Gillette fusion proglide with flexball power or
Gillette fusion5 power?
What is the difference between fusion proglide and fusion 5 proglide??
Not a whole lot, just the handle on Proglide has a flexiball and Fusion cartridges are more aggressive
does proglide blades compatible with gillettelabs razor?
@Taha No they are not. I have made a comparison video of the Proglide vs Gillette labs as well. Hopefully it helps
Which should i choose as i have sensitive skin?
Lesser blades are generally better. I would recommend safety razors or Gillette Skinguard if u want to stick to cartridge razors. Pro tip : Choose care for your skin over closeness of shave. Hope that helps
Which cartridge / head gives you a closer shave? Gillette Fusion 5 (regular orange head color) or Gillette Fusion proglide ?
To me, I prefer the Fusion 5 Proglide Power, then the Proglide and lastly the Fusion. They all do a comparably similar job. The handles and the technique/practice make all the difference too 😊👍🏽
Güzel soru👍
@@allydz güzel cevap 👍
@@AlpcanCan-kg5nd Umarım yardımcı olur 😎👍🏼
What do you use for shaving head ?
Personally as you can see I don’t shave my head. If I did, I would imagine using Fusion Prosheild
I know these are expensive but the Skin Guard is the only razor I get the most comfortable complete shave with.
Couldn’t agree more mate. I used it for 3 weeks straight and almost made me forget that my neck had sensitive spots.
hi mate, is the proglide power razor really worth upgrading ? I have the regular one without battery. Please advise. thanks.
@coolmanu55 I definitely rate the power version it as the best razor with Gillette Fusion Range, feels weird at the start but after 6 weeks when your face gets used to it, definitely is better.
@@allydz awesome bro, thanks for the reply and advise. Razor part is done, so as per your video - proshield 5 is the best fusion blade ? Is it ? or do u have any other suggestion. Like which is the top no.1 blade with this razor ? is it proshield (yellow one) or the sensitive one. Did you try sensitive with the power razor ?
@@coolmanu55 the current Proglide Power (updated orange colour) is the same as the prosheild (yellow), the skin guard won’t give you a close enough shave. So if you don’t have sensitive skin; then fusion Proglide, Proglide Power or Prosheild will all work. FYI ; This is based again on my preference and experience, your taste might vary. The power handle makes a big difference, so glad you got that sorted.
@@allydz yep, received the power razor from amazon and ordered Proshield (yellow). All good mate, Thanks again. u r the best.
@@coolmanu55 get that a lot 🤣. Cheers brother, glad this helped ✌🏼
The issue is there are still very tiny hairs on my face
is that normal?
and what do we do about Beard shadow?
Totally normal. Personally for me my growth has gotten thicker and quicker as I'm growing older. There was a time where I could shave once every 2 weeks and now I need to shave every couple of days. When I exercise regularly, my growth is quicker. This may vary for individuals depending on their lifestyle, DNA, age, testosterone levels, etc; The list goes on. It's not really an issue. The beard shadow; play with it as you like. If you like it, you could use an electric trimmer to even it, if not then do a 3 pass shave.
Great video! Thanks. Subbed. 👍
Cheers bud 👍🏼😎
Can I use the blade for fusion 5 on the fusion power

Fusion pro glide is not the one with the flexball. It was just the proglide and then came the flex ball
Absolutely right there Stelios 👍🏽 I am not talking chronology with these razors, it’s just the different types. I could have said something wrong somewhere though, if so my apologies.

@@Decadestories I started shaving with the Mach 3, I definitely think Mach 3 Turbo is a great option to start off with. If you are happy with it, look for deals where you can get the turbo cartridges in bulk on offer and save. Razor preference varies from person to person on your growth and skin as well. So be mindful of that.
@@allydz thank you very much for your kind detailed information.Grateful to you?
By the way your good name?
@@Decadestories My pleasure. Let me know how you go with your razor. The name is Ally 👍🏼
but it's not clear to me... can you match a "Fusion5 ProShield" cartridge, which is not a power cartridge, with a power handle like the "Fusion ProGlide Flexball Power"? Don't you lose the vibration feature with this matching?
The vibration feature is through the handle and has got nothing to do when the cartridge, so no, you cannot loose the vibration feature
@@allydz ok, thank you. I was asking because I may have seen the same cartridge with and without the "power" label on the box.
@@Cirocarbone it’s all marketing my friend. They all work just alike
Are the disposable version the same quality head as the cartridge?
Personally I found a huge difference. They have always clogged for me and the light weight doesn’t work well for me, some people might feel otherwise though. So really varies from person to person, but for me it’s a big no.
@@allydz Thanks do you know if they are supposed to be the same quality steel ect?
@@JS-te4gz That I don’t know my friend. Unfortunately there is no info on any website as well. I would imagine it is depending on which razor it is. I know fusion razors work generally better for me rather than the Mach 3.
Has anyone compared any of these with the leaf razor, for head shaving? Thanks
That be an interesting 1…. Hoping to get my hands on one of those bad boys some day.
I love the larger size of the power handle. I stopped putting batteries in it years ago. 😂
Oh you should try the Proglide styler handle bud, nice and large handle there too
My husband have oily skin and pimples earlier.. Whenever he gets shaved all skin is irritated and feels like hurted and burning sensation in all over the skin..He wants to shave but after getting these results he prefer trimmer instead of shaving.Please suggest any good quality of shaving cream and razor and after shave lotion or something which will help for too much sensitive skin.
I normally use a good face wash to get rid of oil on the skin before shaving. Application of shaving creams designed for sensitive skin could help, I use Gillette pure shaving cream, Gillette Skin guard Razor and Nivea Men Sensitive aftershave balms work well for me. He could try traditional DE razors. A good routine will definitely help. Time consuming but the results are great. Hope all works out well Somya 👍🏽
Thanks for reply.. Can u pls tell any good quality of face wash for sensitive skin.
@@somyakaushik8974 Get him to try a few good brands to find what works best for your hubby. I would recommend that he first speak to a skin specialist to make sure he gets professional advice.

can i install a mach 3 turbo blade on regular mach 3 handle?
You sure can 👍🏼
@@allydz thank you brother for response. Where are you from?
bro I have tons of Gillette contour plus razors I don’t know what to do with them since the handle is broken and they discontinued it
Tried the sensor handle? They look quite similar...
Can I use mach3 cartiges on Proglide machine?
Unfortunately not
For finer hair/western european the Mach 3 is best, with thicker hair more blades works better "this logic isn't hard to understand"
i've tried several 2 blades and it just misses those extra fine hairs, i've tried pretty much every type of razor but the mach 3 for when i do shave with a razor "rarely nowadays" is best for my blond/fine hair.
Every thickness of hair has a razor basically. (A traditional knife works for all, but lighter hair is more difficult and requires more skill because it's hard to see)
Love the traditional knife part 🤣🤣
Very nice Video. Thank you.
Thank you 🙂👍. I'm glad you liked it
How many shaves can be done with just one cartigae
I mean how frequent do we need to change the blade(Cartiage)
@MS_Abhinavofficial They normally go from 5 to 15 shaves on average from what I hear, everyone’s mileage varies with type of skin, hair type, products used, etc.
So you are saying that one can understand by seeing the blades that it's time to change it
Anyway Thanks a lot for your reply

@MC STAN I will try my best to recommend something. It depends on a lot of factors brother; hair thickness, skin sensitivity, quality of cream you use, pre- shave prep, etc. Everyone's skin type is different as well My humble opinion is you start with the mildest and then keep going towards the aggressive side. The moment your skin feels uncomfortable or irritatio; stop and take a step back. I'm curious to know, what do you use at the moment and how do you find the closeness of your shave?
Hy iam planning to buy a gillete razor
Which one do you reccomend under 500 rs ?
I’m not sure my friend. I don’t know prices in Rs and also the type of razor depends on what works best for you. I hope you find the video useful as a guide.
@@allydz thx for reply
I brought two sided razor and it suits me
@@milkmansuperman1232 Perfect. It’s the best thing you did for your skin 👍🏼👍🏼. Well done brother
@@allydz thx ❤️
Which is the best Gillette razor, only not electric?
Gillette mach3, Gillette mach charcoal or Gillette fusion proglide 5
For me personally, the Fusion Proglide smashes the Mach3 variants by a thousand miles.
@@allydz I am looking to buy a very good razor, that's why I'm asking
@@P4TRYK1 if your skins not sensitive, try the Gillette labs. It’s pretty good too. I have found the results for Gillette labs cheaper on Amazon too. Also everyone’s face and skin type are different. So just go all trail and error mindset with this. Don’t commit to blades without trying the razor to make sure you are happy with it 👍🏼😎
Okay so I'm 17 ,my "beard" isn't alot,I want to trim for the first time,I want to how do I say this,invest in a good razor and handle ,what's your advice,I only want say weekly shaving, please help by giving gour advice please.
I will try my best with some suggestions. I have a few questions for you. Are you looking into cartridge razor only or are open to DE? What razor do you have in mind atm? What is the texture of your facial hair?
@@allydz my facial hair is on the thinner side and not very much,at to claridges or DE I do not know the difference, could you explain what DE is?
@@allydz nvm,just googled the difference and I'm not interested in the DE ones, cause they are dangerous in general,my inocent opinion,I don't know much about it so cartridge it is
DE is double edge razor. Something I use a lot more than cartridges. They are not just economical but also cause less waste. I use a carts more when I’m travelling or need a quick shave.
There are quite a few good quality cartridge razors like Gillette, Schick, etc. You will be happy with any of them from a shave perspective. One could experiment with what suits your skin the best with the lowest level of aggressiveness on blades, eg: Skin guard and then move towards a Fusion a Pro-glide. I have mentioned level of aggressiveness in my video as well according to my experience.
@@MeMelon4u I have mentioned shaving preparation in few of my shave videos too. Please invest in a good face wash, shaving soap as well as after shave moisturiser. It will really help long term. Let me know how you go. All the best 👍🏽😀
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.
@@samanradmanesh4458 ignore this soy boy, he’s from a targeted ad campaign against Gillette by paedophiles
I've tried the DE and didn't like them and rather a Cartridge Razer anyway!!
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.
I have proglide body but confused which blade should i use on it.. gillette fusion 5 proglide or gillette fusion 5 which one give more clean shave on body hair ??
Personally I don't use cartridge for the body anymore as it causes irritation. I use a Phillips body hair trimmer instead.
Fusion 5 Pro glide for sure
@@epicisdan Logically speaking you are bang on 👍🏽👍🏽
@@allydz Also for note: Apparently the Fusion 5 has been rebranded to just "pro glide" and it now colored black.
Figured that out after searching stores several hours/enquiring with Gillette 😅
@@epicisdan Yes I did notice that in the stores recently 🤣
