Have you tried Harry's or Gillette? All products linked in description for you.
Try or discuss dollar shave club!!!
Good review.You deserve 1million subscribers😀😀😀😀🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳.
I use mostly double edge razors but if I had to choose between the 2 I'd go with Harry's cause they haven't made an ad insulting their core customer base.
What is the name of your face please Shorten ,The owner of the channel
I am using Gillette fusion more than 5 6 years and its awesome..
I left Gillette in January and I'm glad. I've been using Harry's since then and I'm quite happy.
Shreshth Goyal I’m sure safety razors are better but I tried them once and bled all over my face never doing that again cartridges are glide-able so they are better for my face
If you left Gillette over their hatred of men you need to leave woke harrys also.
Time to drop Harry's too. Just another SJW bs company
@@andrewwiggin7433 time to buy vintage safety razors
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.
can't remember the last time i used a cartridge razor, safety razors all the way!
Safety razors are superior to these, but cut throats are THE BEST :)
@@jordonflexer9415 I have a safety for my head and a cutthroat for my face (beard).
Nah, you are going to get a better shave with a DE than a cutthroat. Chances are.
@@Yorker1998 what are you talking about? Both have single blades.
@@ljc6141 Except one has a steeper learning curve so first time you're more likely to get a better shave with a DE than with a straight.
I learned almost nothing from this video. Who cares about the brands just want to know which razor works best.
Bought Harry's today. Love it. Once Gillette started to insult me, I left. Never going back.
Right on
Can't be using Gillete no more after that wack commercial attacking men
Yup. Saw it and I was like nah
EAR TO EAR >ben shapiro
Vro
Yep
Imagine not purchasing a product because it’s manufacturer made a commercial about how it doesn’t matter if males are manly or not. Yikes!
If you got offended by that commercial, you're not a real man. And oh yeah, Gillette is the best cartridge razor hands down. Not even close.
I've used Gillette's Fusion razors for several years. They're great, but after a few months with Harry's (and learning the feel of the handle and the cartridge), I'm now all-in with Harry's... bye bye Gillette.
4:28 I have used Gillette razors for years and never even realised they had a precision trimmer on the back. Can’t wait to try this out now. Thanks for letting me know hahahaha
If you're a man that respects yourself you won't use Gillette. Use a safety razor och Philips OneBlade. Don't go anywhere near Gillette!
you mean the post 1971 Gillettes :) Cause they made some nice safety razors from Gillette.
HaasGrotesk It’s not that serious 😂
Any brand but Gillette. Bit disappointed you featured Gillette after your video on male mental health, adverts like Gillette’s are part of the problem. The constant shitting on men is getting incredibly tiresome and it is truly damaging. I know you said it missed the mark but that is a huge understatement.
Simple Harry’s. They sell Razors and Don’t try to make you feel bad about being a man. Smash the thumbs up if you’re still boycotting Gillette.
Agree
jeremys razors i think is where ill go
Both Gillette and Harry’s are perfect for legs and armpits. But for manly facial hair I choose Jeremy’s Razors.
I mainly use safety razors but out of curiosity purchased a Harry's razor, their shave gel and post shave balm. I was impressed by the results. Great razor with no gimmicks, slim head to get under the nose, handle has good grip and doesn't feel cheap, their shave gel and balm smell nice. Glad there are more alternatives to Gillette
Gillette lost my business. To hell with 'em.
0795920s why? bc they said men should be men?
@@Sillytommysadventure because they don’t know what men are.
@@good-tn9sr What are we ?
@@pjfsr7024 men
@@good-tn9sr And where did they say we weren't men ?
Im literally a teenager watching this video because I want to know what other brand is out there because Gillette is too pricey for me lol thanks for seeing through me
Your not LITERALLY ? you are JUST a Teenager
Omg literally ? Literally me too literally
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.
Double edge razors are the best! Great value for money, glide don’t drag and no gimmicks. You need to review a DE razor
What’s a double edged razor!… I just can’t get a good shave they are all massively over priced and use cheap foreign steel! Mach 3 used to be great! But the steel used for the blade has got cheap and brittle over the last few years! I would pay over the top for a blade that uses British steel! Any out there!👍
@@kevinholly5517 A double edge razor is the style that was used a few years back. The blade is the thin strip of metal with an edge on both sides. Invest in a DE razor, Edwin Jagger or Muhle, £20 - £30 and a pack of blades. Find on Amazon and I promise you will be impressed. Don't drag like the multi blades and much cheaper
@@67davejb thanks! I’ll do it straight away. Thanks for taking the time to reply 👍
You guys won't buy Gillette because you're offended by a commercial?? LMAO I didn't know babies could grow facial hair.
Answer: Jeremy’s Razors.
Drop both. , use Jeremy's Razors.
I have a Harry’s Truman and it’s absolutely amazing
rhyno 89 what after shave do you use?
I love Harry’s it’s the only shaver that gets all my hair
I wouldn’t go back to Gillette
Heard Harry's are good razors but since the company has gone "woke" I am switching to Jeremy's razors.
I've been using Harry's essentially since their inception (2013). I have never looked back. I have been using the same handle and it still looks new. Their razors are satisfactory and even now that I have a beard and rarely ever need a new blade, I know that I can get them for a very reasonable price.
Also, I had no idea about the single razor on the back of the head. I went in the bathroom to see if mine had it on there and, sure enough, it did. Amazing. Thanks for the tip, Robin. Can't believe i've overlooked it all these years.
Recently I spent over$ 300 dollars with gifts from. Harry's. I was given a free tube of shaving cream which is twice as large as same One u buy of Harry's at Walmart. The tube was damaged during shipping they refused to send out another and blocked me on Twitter!
I got my first razor last week and it was harrys. I love it and don't think I'll be changing soon. I'm 15 btw
Guys - never forget: Gillette HATE white, heterosexual males. If that's you, then what are you doing supporting your enemy? Harry's is the choice for "easy" shaving. But take it up a notch, and try safety razor shaving. More skill is required but blades are waaaaaaaaaaaaay cheaper, and it's also waaaaaaaay cooler. I personally use the Rockwell and love it but there are many brands to choose from. The next step after that is to get into traditional straight or cut-throat razors. Much more skill and work, but the coolest thing of all!
Good, comprehensive review; got both of these razors, and, it is very difficult to pick a winner as they are so similar - it's not silly money, so get both if you can. That's my recommendation! Enjoyed the video - thanks for uploading.'
Dollarshaveclub because they don't involve their politics.
I will never buy Gilettes razor, cant support that company.
Me neither. Their razors were always overpriced but useable. however, since they went woke and decided that my intersectional group (white , cis male) is responsible for all the ills of the western world, I will not opress them by insisting they take my money.
Alan Dawson Triggered lol
Alan Dawson I knew they were sexist but didn’t know they were racist..
Josh Rhode They’re neither lmao. Triggered
I stopped buying Gillette when they starting to get preachy about what it means to be a "real" man. No thanks.
Switched to DE shaving over a year ago. Best decision I made, cheaper, no gimmicks and a better quality shave.
I only use the Barbasol ultra 6 plus cartridge razor 🪒 5 years ago.
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 WON'T be buying any more Harry's or Gillette's razors.....I'm tired of being HATED by WOKE corporations !
Just got a Harry’s razor and 4 refills for 28 quid on Amazon.
Neither : they're both woke and deserve to be broke.
@David Gray Ask the temper tantrum toddlers on Twitter who get so easily offended and continuously scream and cry and protest these companies until they comply with their woke insanity.
@David Gray Are you sure you're not ignorant ?
Thank you for sharing great tips
Ha! 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.
DONT BUY BOTH OF THESE WOKE BRANDS
I've always used Mach 3 and the battery fusion... For face I use a straight razor and a merkur for my head with both Gillettes for my head..
I. Used Harry's For the first time today on my head.. OMG, sorry Gillette Harry's wins I have a bumpy and a few scars on my head, this means the safety razor doesn't get all the hair in the awkward parts. Fusion and Mach. Especially the fusion does meet this requirement. Always use the fusion as a finisher.. However. One pass with harry's did the job, a second pass just to make sure.
Robin deserves so much more attention, unfair. Love the videos. ❤️❤️
I agree. Harry's is the only razor I use to shave
Any razor as safe as Gillette skinguard but finer in cutting?
My family has been using Harrys since they started we will NEVER buy anything from this BS virtue signaling company again!
Thanks for the review. Very helpful. After 50 years of shaving, I am trying to get away from Gillette blades so I too can "be the best I can be". I'm going to try Harrys...hopefully they will work out.
Did you switch? If so, how do you like Harry’s now?
@@twangoldenbass well...I’ve been using Harry’s for 8 months now and sadly....am not as pleased with them as I had hoped. I can’t seem to get a consistent close shave. I will stick with them for now and probably will try something else (not Gillette) till I find something that works.
@@TheAirplaneDriver Try getting a DE safety razor - once you get the technique they offer a much better shave but not many people know that as they don't have the marketing budget of Gillette etc.
Harry’s ! One of the best razors ever made 👍🏻
I got to try Harry's blades..... I been using there bodywash and I love it
Don’t try Harry, use a Gillette spend the extra and be happy for life
At last I can ditch my Wilkinson Hydro which I defected to following the Gillette advert, though the shave was not good with the hydro and Gillette much better. Harry's is definitely equivalent to Gillette and cheaper , lets hope it stays that way , as long as I don't have to subscribe and just buy it in Boots when I chose to. However I see it is now owned by the big guys Wilkinson !
What’s the Gillette in the beginning? Looks like a Gillette Fusion 5 Proglide In black and chrome?
You mean subscription service or as an employee?
My hairs feels very dry and brittle i can't move my hands along my hairs what should i do?
It’s crazy how so many products today are on a subscription basis.
Harry’s is amazing, I switched from Gillette, too expensive and I never could be comfortable using them. I like how smooth and how comfortable Harry’s is to hold. I really like their shaving gel for whatever reason it doesn’t irritate my face.
I agree about the shaving gel
I use Harry's razor with Barbasol shaving cream. I like since it gives you like a classic barbershop shave. I might try the Harry's shaving gel one of these days once I run out of shaving cream. When I first started shaving, my first razor was a Gillette Fusion. They weren't bad back in 2011, but as the years went on, the prices have gone ridiculously high with the 4, and 8 pack of cartridges.
Unbelievable, talk talk talk....all I was looking is, I tried Gillette on the left side of my face and Harry on the right and XYZ was better, that's it
I still never got an answer
It'll vary from person to person so only you can decide that. For this guy, Harry's was better and Gillette needs to up their game
nether.....unless you like a woke shave and support companies that hate you.
Great review!!
Harry's is like shaving with a cheese grater the stubble it left behind a gillet I already had 2 months use on cleaned up the stubble up with no nicks no burns
Hadn't thought of it as a cheesgrater and really wanted Harry's to be better then Gillette plus give Gillette a run for the money. But I
think all these blades are massively overpriced, and, having grazed myself yesterday with a Harry's (removed a patch of skin from my chin and drew blood) I'm cancelling my Harry's subscription today and returning to Gillette. I wish Harry's luck but if they can have my business again at a much lower price and a more flexible head.
I switched to Harry’s a couple of years ago but they jacked their prices up & their razor eat my face up now. I’m looking for a different razor.
Thinking of shifiting from cartridge to safety razor
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.
Hello.
Have you ever used the Gillette fusion 5 proglide power razor? Is there any difference shave wise when using a manual handle
Thanks
Great Video Men!
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 absolutely agree. Can't say I'm a big fan of the company but the mach 3 is the best all around blade
I switched from Harry's to Gillette, I work on the military so shaving every day is a must. Gillette far outperforms Harry's any day of the week and making the switch has been probably the best decision I have made in my life.
Gillette pushes transgender i won’t use their products
i WON'T be buying any more Harry's or Gillette's razors.....I'm tired of being HATED by WOKE corporations !
@@jordansheppard6643 who cares what they push. As long as their razors work idgaf what their ideology is.
@Bernardo Trujillo disposable ones work best for me. Is only like $6 a pack.
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.
How long does one safety razor last if you shave every day?
@@azilius5302 the razor lasts forever, but if you change blade every day you'd pay like $32 for the year or around there buying blades in bulk
@@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.
I have start using Harry...after gellite...Harry is good brand..
Jeremy’s Razors beats them both
Update I used Harry's razers for a couple of weeks I didn't care for them. But I still love there bodywash and can't find anything better so I'm sticking with there bodywash
harry’s soap game is on top
Been using Harry's for a while now and I now have the best shave I have had for years. Although Harry's DON'T recommend their razors for head shaving I have found even here that it's the smoothest my head has felt for many years.
I started using a gillette fusion 5 when i was 16 then i bought a safety razor last year but cause im still young the first 3 shaves with a gillette platinum blade cuts my face a lot so ive gone back to using a gillette cartridge razor for now got a harrys one coming on tuesday cause ive heard great things from them but im still sticking to lathering up with a brush and toobs grapefruit shave soap
I use Gillete foam for shaving
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'.
Safety Razor
a target store near me has two full aisles of Harry's razor blades, soap, shaving cream. I was thinking about switching, but I have a rough & tuff beard. so can Harry blades shave it. also I have sensitive skin + after I shave sometime my face gets irritated from shaving. it's hard to find a good razors today
It’s been over a year yes harrys can handle that
Im in love with this new background!❤
Great vid as always Robin ! 😁
Honestly, my only regret about buying Harry's is buying the Winston with the Chrome finish before the graphite finish came out. Just a more appealing colorway to me.
I use Harrys, been for the last few years, I get 8 blades each month... decided few years ago, anything that is sharp of the face needs a decent set up, use 2 blades a week
My Gillette razor blades last me a month. Why would anyone want to go through two a week when you can use once a month?
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.
Harry's all the way, been using for 2 years, best razor I have ever used, and NO I do not work for them LOL
I’ve been using a Dorco Pace 6 for a year now and love it. They have great, well-priced subscriptions and back in February they were selling a handle and 8 blades for £10.
Appreciate the tip. Just had a look on Amazon and going to try them.
Where did you get the mist from? Couldn't see it on your link
Both do cringeworthy ads
Never watched any harrys ads
@@iamthestormthatisapproaching69 the Gillete comercial attacking men was wack
@@iamthestormthatisapproaching69 I got rid of TV due to ads and block em at any opportunity. However, hunted both down after reading comments on here and agree with the general consensus. Not a Harry's or Gillette fan now :o( Going to grow an enormous beard.
Redondo9 harrys dosent have ad’s ???
Man I love Harry's cream and aftershave but the razors SUCKS. I didn't even know razor burn was a thing until I tried the Harry's razor. Sucks, back to Gillette I go
What about dollar shave club?
It's not worth it. You can search up Dorco I think thats name. But they make dollar shave clubs razors and if you order from them. Its cheaper
Dollar shave club is a scam, priced up bargain bin cartridge razors of shitty quality. Aldi use them as their own brand
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've tried both ..For me Gillett wins hands down.. way better.
Both are woke . So boycott both. Woke jokes.
👍👌 he'll with both of em. They need ta mind their own business and keep their opinions to themselves & just provide a good product. Any company gonna get my money better shut the HELL up!
I find that I get a better shave by far with Gillette vs Harry's. I also find the five blade Gillette version is far less likely to cause nicks compared to the three blade type.
Will never buy either of these again as the companies hates their core customers- Men
When is shaving just for Men ?
You don't like inclusiveness or diversity ?
Me either. Who brings politics to a damn razor & or want s them shoving their plastic beliefs down your throat. HELL with both of em.
They can both keep them. They don't want me as a customer, happy to oblige.
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.
Big Deuce - 10 razors, $3 - works great and great value
Jeremy´s Razor is the best nowadays
How about neither... Solid metal Baili blade holder that will last a lifetime $17. One hundred DE razor blades $15. Gillette write-down of EIGHT BILLION DOLLARS!!! ----- priceless.
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.
Neither is the best choice. Once you enter the world of double-edge safety razors, you'll never go back. These multi-blades are like using a cheese-grater on your face.
I actually think all the multi-blade heads aren’t that good. The old 2 and three blade cartridges were way better, so I find I get a better shave with Gillette’s disposable razors which are way cheaper.
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.
I've just tried Harry's, I'm not an expert but I normally use a proglide and got a better shave from a 3 month old proglide than a new Harry's. Subscription cancelled before the trial ended.
Neither blow me away re shave quality. I still prefer my safety razor where you can change out the blades for pennies and enjoy a clean sharp shave each time. With practice it's also equally fast plus you don't get ingrown hairs due to the single blade.
