Buy a double edge safety razor set. Which comes with stand, safety razor unit,saop,bowl or cup,soap brush,5 double blades. You can buy a separate double edge blades of 100 ct for less than $15.00. Also its the best shave of your life
Double edge safety razors have made a huge comeback in recent years, especially since the Gillette commercial. They give a way smoother shave, blades cost way less and don't tug like cartridge ones do, and most of the DE razors themselves are built to last for generations.
Two weeks ago my girlfriend purchased the Harry's Razor and four replacement cartridges. I've used it fourteen straight days with the original cartridge and it still feels brand new on my face. It doesn't nick or cut. I love this razor.
I am really upset with the Harry's Razor company for they claim to be pro-LGBTQ+, but they only make razors for men or women ... boycott them! There are more than two genders according to Harry's Razor company lol
Ben Jones Thank you. I’m a female with peach fuzz for arm hair and I was just about to ask if that honing technique works for hairless arms. I’ll use jeans. ☺️
Absolutely! Every shave with my Harry's razor,, I start stropping with a moderate weight pair of jeans and it stretches the life of the blade to about 3-weeks. Amazing!
Both Harry's & Gillette have stepped into the woke arena. Of these two (former) choices, Gillette wins. But that's moot b/c I'm looking for another shaver co.
I used Harry’s this morning on my head for the first time....I am really really impressed with this razor compared to what I was previously using fusion pro glide...Harry’s gave me a more improved comfortable shave and with no nicks so I won’t be going back to Gillette....btw I had no issue with the angle of the blade to the handle mentioned in the video....Harry’s is a beautiful razor.
@@GustavoSantos-gz7uj because we don't need Gillette telling us what ass holes men are.Most of us know how to raise our children and to treat each other with respect,thank you.
So I tried Harry’s for the first time today. I have a rough beard and it gave me a decently close shave, although I think it will take some time getting used to. I normally shave with a single blade or twin blade and 5 blades usually used to cut me here and there. You have to be more careful with your technique with Harry’s but I can tell it’s a quality blade. Very sharp.
I am at 3 weeks of use on mine and it is just now getting dull. I have been very impressed with mine! I do recommend this razor (video explaining more on my wall). I did not have a chrome grip like some others have had, mine is an orange rubber like yours so no slipping. I think the handle is comfy too! I had the same amount of hair storage in the blades as I did any other razor. These blades were awesome IMO and I shaved multiple body parts nearly every day. I can see how the angle bothered you but with legs....no problemo. Oh and I will totally try your trick as I too before Harry's used disposables for a LONG time.
Before I started growing out my beard I went from Gillett to Harry's and never looked back. It's a great razor, good lifespan, and amazing shave. Only thing I have negative to say, if you pack it carelessly in a travel bag (I had one for travel when i was in the reserves) the head pops off pretty easy. However that doesnt change how good it is when you shave. I'd absolutely recommend them to anyone who is looking for a new disposable razor.
I switched from Gillette as well a few years ago. Grew a beard and am now beardless lol... Pulled my Harry's razor back out and it works like new. And I stocked on cartridges before I grew my beard..lol🤷🏾♂️
First time watching your channel. I liked your review, it’s solid and insightful. I’m subscribing and notifications on! How are the razors fairing after 6 months?
I appreciate the subscribe! It held up well while I used it. In July I switched to the Gillette Fusion 5 Proshield Power, as you can see in this video: ua-cam.com/video/9jl3UhRjsfg/v-deo.html
Same here for me (in the UK), I tried the Harry (I only do my beard) and the price point was good but adding the points you made all together and my experience I have returned to Gillette Fusion 5, expensive but seems to give for me at least the shave that is best.

This was a very thorough nice solid review. Thanks for this video. I just bought mine at Costco $24.99 (1) Razor Handle, (1) Travel blade cover, (13) 5-blade cartridge refills. Not a bad deal.
I actually use Harry's for grooming "the goods," and never had a problem. It is difficult but I find Harry's to be the best over Gillette and Manscaped. Only cut myself once
I’ve used all kinds of razors. But, I tried Harry razor about a hour ago. And I must say. It was the best shaving experience I’ve ever had. And I didn’t have to go against the grain; like prior razors 1:35 . I love the flexibility of the blade. His razor got my respect. 😊❤
I came from a Wilkerson Safety razor, being taught how to shave by Dad. Then in the 90s, tried the Gillette Mach series. Then in November last year saw the Harry's. The Mach are too expensive to replace. The quality isn't the same for shaving. Harry's is Heaven Sent! Cheap, shaves you good, lasts longer than 3 shaves. No razor burns....great product!
I was the same way at first about the blade angle, but after a couple of shaves the Harry's stuff really rocks. I really like the straight blade for the trimmer.
@theengineer70 Mate you should look into double edge razor shaving aka a safety razor Far farrrr better shave and you have the choice of roughly a hundred different blades you can get for them You can even buy blade sample packs that come with a selection of all the most popular blades, but cartridge razors are rubbish
I shave my underarms and nape of the neck. Surprisingly the disposable Harry's razors had lasted me much longer than the refillable ones. It was about 8-9 months for one box of disposables and so far only 3 months for what has been 2-3 refillable razors. I shave once per week, and even though the razors themselves have stayed sharp for long, the refillable razor heads themselves have broken at the joint.
@@roningram5877 I just saw them at Wally World yesterday. A whole bunch of them, even had an endcap display. 10 bucks for a box with the handle and 2 blades.
Denim works about as well as your arm (or better) for stropping. I've used razors for months by stropping. I'm just starting to use a Harry's razor and I'm getting the sense that it doesn't stay sharp for as long as other brands. I agree with your impression of the weird angle of the razor with respect to the handle.
I am sick and tired of Harry’s as well as Gillette. They insult our intelligence by telling us how to think. If you’re a real man you’ll switch to Jeremy ‘s Razors ASAP and even better Jeremy‘s gives you a much cleaner comfortable shave. Check out their ads fantastic.
Harrys are too expensive Guys. The Aldi bargain 5 blade razor is £3.49 complete with a blade and a refill pack of 4 blades is just £3.99 and last ages. Try them and you won't be disappointed.
I am 51. I have been buying Gillette since I was 14 years old. It will be a cold, cold, COLD day in hell when I ever buy a Gillette product again. I am 100% done...
I have mixed feelings about Harrys blades. I like the handle itself, but the blades clog way to easily and are almost impossible to unclog. Harrys is also not a blade that you want to put a lot of pressure on, especially if you have sensitive skin. In a pinch Harrys is okay, but the Gillette Fusion has been superior in how long each blade has lasted me, as well as comfort, and maintainability.
I like Harry's razors and blades very much. I like the simplicity of the hinge vs the Gilette blade that seems to have alot going on. .It's well balanced and feels comfortable in the hand. For me, the quality of the shave was slightly better than Gillettes five bladed razor. The sharpness of the blades also seem to last a long time. The one knock I have is that the plastic hinge, whose perfomance I really like, breaks after about 5 days. This is too bad as it renders the razor just about useless. Not sure what I will try next.
If you guys want to make your Harry's blades last longer you got to clean it with a spray bottle then use a little piece of paper dehydrate the blade before the liquid water damages it
Personally I like Harry's blades a lot. What I like most is the feel when shaving with Harry's, for me the blades have the right amount of drag to feel like they're cutting hair, and giving a close shave. Blades that glide effortlessly over my face with no pull just aren't satisfying to shave with. They may give a close shave, but they don't feel like they are. You have to be careful with the trimmer blade though, using it to get right under my nose, I've cut myself a few times. Definitely need a light touch using it
I just got a Harry's razor from Walmart. I was a subscriber to dollar shave club and I liked them well but my handle broke (it rusted in me with the blade in it my fault completely ). I decided to give Harry's a try. Price point to price point is about the same as Dollar Shave Club. The handle with two blades was $10 just like at Target for you and I ended up getting a four pack of blades which was $9 for 4 which is about the same as Dollar Shave Club. What I like about the cartridge refills is the packaging is awesome. I like how it's put in reusable Packaging. I can use the box to gift one of my many beaded items that I make. I also like the case the cartridges come in way better than Dollar Shave Club. Also what I liked about the starter kit will just call it that it came with a blade cover so if you happen to keep your razor in the shower like I do your blade isn't going to rust nearly as quickly. My problem that I didn't like about it was how to change a blade I've had problems figuring it out but once I did is like oh okay I got this. The other thing that I was skeptical on was how well it would shave my legs. It's been months since I shaved my legs last time I did any hair removal on my legs I used Nair. Not a fan of the smell of Nair or the wait time or dealing with chemicals so I'm went back to shaving. I was highly impressed on how well it handles and coarse hair on my legs and I did use the trimmer blade to make sure that I got all the hair down to the nitty-gritty. The other thing that I didn't care for was how easy it was to Nick myself with the blade. Grand it I nicked myself with any blade whether it's a Disposable Male razor that I got from the Dollar Tree, a disposable female razor that I got from the Dollar Tree, I fancy-schmancy woman's razor from Walmart, or a Harrys Razor. I always Nick myself behind the ankle where your Achilles tendon is Common Pleas for me to Nick. I really like the price point of Harrys Razor and just because I'm a woman doesn't mean I can't use a man's razor. It's funny because women's razors and cartridges I guess that's what they call him are way more expensive than men's and really there is no difference except in this case all my there's a trimmer blade. I like the way to the handle it's very similar to the elite handle I had from Dollar Shave Club. Again will state how I liked the packaging and how reusable the box was. I can use the starter kit box for gift if I wanted to and as for the cartridge box I do have a handmade beaded keychain that I made as a gift in it. I would love to try the Harry's shave lotion if it's available because I absolutely love the shave lotion from Dollar Shave Club it smells amazing and it worked really really well I kind of want to see how Harry's works out. So if any you ladies out there reads this I strongly suggest giving Harry's a try there is no shame and using a male razor.
My Son is 17 and has always just used an electric razor on his face. I just ordered the Harrys razor because he needs more of a close shave. I just found your video and it was very informative, thank you. Honestly I know this sounds crazy but I have no idea on how to show him to shave the right way with a blade razor. I'm trying to look for Harry shaving videos on "how to" I guess, with no luck. Single mom here. Lol
Page 6 of the information included in my Harry's shaver states....."Head Shaver. Heads up. Our blades are designed for your face and we don't recommend them for head shaving. If this is what you were looking for, contact us and we'll help you with a return for a full refund."
By far the best razor I’ve ever used. Been using the same razor for like 3 - 4 weeks, and still going. It holds on pretty great. And i’m one of those guys that shaves 3 to 4 times a week. The angle is perfect, this dude’s just being a bit of a bitch. You won’t be disappointed. I hardly give an opinion on stuff, but this thing is great. Saved myself more money. IT’S A MUST BUY.
@@Mattjonesll I actually forgot to erase this comment. They actually dont last as long as you would think. But still beats buying high prices razors. They can last you about 5 - 7 shaves.
I just started using Harry's. And it's the closest shave I've ever had. The technique I use to keep blades sharp: Dip blades in olive oil and rest it in it's case. Still sharp as ever😎❤😎
The head of this razor is the best feature it perfectly follows the contours of your face this is the sharpest best razor I've ever used I've been searching for a good razor for a while I've went through all the top named brands just seems like the sharpness and quality have went way down in modern razors but not harrys razors hands down best shaving razor I've ever owned.
Awesome review, glad it worked for you. I had the opposite experience. Harry's Blades has literally destroyed my face. I am 26, been shaving for years, but this blade hurts my face. I wish they had a blade for sensitive skin.
I tried Harry's because I was so angry at Gillette about the man-hating advertisement. Now I like the Harry's shave a LOT. Smooth close shave. BUT ..... 1. The cartridge hinges though wear out quickly, faster than the blade itself. Once the hinges wear out the blade just flops around. So on balance it lasts much less time than Gillette cartridges, roughly canceling out the cost advantage of Harry's. 2. I think the standard Truman handle is fantastic. I did try the optional chrome Winton model and got severe razor cuts 3 times! The Winton is much more narrow and also NOT rubberized and so it would just spin around once in a while, giving me huge razor cuts around half an inch long or more. This never happened to me even once with 30+ years of using Gillette. So stick with the Truman folks. 3. Also notice that there is no button to release the cartridge from the handle. It just slides off. one time it slide off during a shave and gave me a severe razor cut. Gillette cartridges never slide off because you have to push a button release for the cartridge to come off. On balance it seems like Gillette is a more mature and bug free design. But then there is the problem that they seem to hate their male customer base. Not sure what to do. We shall see.
Ive went from Gilliete Fusion to Harrys and honestly going to switch back to Gillette... Harrys is rough and definitely not as close as the fusion and i seem to get alot of cuts and rashes from harrys. 3/10 from me
I like that they put time into the packaging, although, there is quite a lot of it. It is nice though. I use the boxes for collar stays, Swiss Army knife, etc. to throw in my luggage. I didn’t care for the angle at all, but then I realized the blade had to “click backward” into place; I was trying to use while locked in the “new-in-box” position. Now, I really like it. Accompanying products are nice too.
I actually bought this just for the hell of it and I actually was prepared to not like this Harry's razor just because of the angle of the blade being parallel to the handle, and on the first shave, that ended up not being a problem. I am a head shaver as well as my face, although my hair is not super thick. All in all I feel like it's a good product that costs less than leading cartridge razor
Great video, however, how do you know when to change the blade? I started using Harry's razor after using Fusion razor and blades for years, their blades have a blue strip that turns white over time after using, indicating it's time to change the blade, so how is Harry's different?
I'll never go back to Gillette...they don't want my business, I'm unapologetically masculine, and their "toxic masculinity" nonsense has lost me as a customer forever.
Dude I just bought one and I felt rough like a cheap disposable razor and when I went for the close shave it was tugging and pulling a lot I shave with the grain the first pass and (close shave) on the second pass I shave against the grain. With my double edge razor I don't have any tugging or pulling but it's too aggressive for my liking which is why I tried this Harry's razor which I can compare to a cheap disposable razor.
I just tried that honing technique on my old dull Schick aqua 5 and it worked like new. I got an extremely close shave and was surprised. I guess it is similar to preparing a straight razor on a leather strap.
First week with Harry's Razor, Chrome pack from Costco. Have been using a Gillette Twin for years, but it's not available anymore. Harry's is sharp and smooth. Had to adjust to the angle, but I can manage. Stays sharp after a week of head and face shaving. I use moisturizing shampoo for my head and face. No nicks so far. The Costco pack has 13 razor heads and a Chrome handle. The handle could be a bit larger, but I'll adjust to that too. So far, so good!
Humans have oily bodies so when oil is applied to blades it keeps it sharp then the rusted wet blades. I use pressurized canned air to blow dry my razor and i have a oil that gets applied after
I love Gillette fusion proshield flexball chill or mach3 turbo. My head is smooth no cuts. Mach3 turbo is fantastic. Aftre Shave balm Gillette sensitive skin is fantastic ,gel Gillette after shave sensitive skin is fantastic. Nivea men sensitive after shave balm is fantastic.first, thayers witch hazel cucumber.I use cream/soaps proraso, cella ,maca root , with brush. I don't use gel or foam. My head with gillette fusion proshield flexball chill or mach3 is fantastic,super smooth
Thanks for the video. I noticed when you demoed your honing technique you did it in the opposite direction as the video example. You went down arm. He went up arm. Skin has a grain based on the direction of hairgrowth. It might make a slight difference. Will try it myself and join the honing tribe. Anyway thanks the great video.
I use to get alot of shaving bumps on my neck area I started uses Harry's razor and shave cream my neck is clear and no more bumps I have to give this brand a 5 star
I'm happy with my Gillette Mach 3 Turbo I buy for $1.30 each at Costco. My deodorant I use Every Man Jack scent Fresh from Whole foods that's also aluminum free. I wouldn't use Harry even if it was Free. The owners of Harry's don't even believe in the product after selling the company!!
I switched from fusion blades to Harrys....after 1 shave i threw the lot in the bin. Absolutely no comparison! Rubbish! I know 2 other guys who had the same results as me.....cuts everywhere
I have watched several of your reviews! I like your no-nonsense does it really do it approach! I have tried Harry’s by subscription. I like their shave foam a lot, but it is expensive compared to the product I normally use and also I found it slowed my sink drain! On the razor, using the single blade between my nose and upper lip just does not work well for me, that is not just a Harry’s issue but for all 5 + 1 razors. I much prefer narrow 3 blade razors like Gillette Sensor 3. Even the disposable of that model does a great job for me!
I'm here because I don't want to buy Gillette anymore.
Go online and read there mission statement and look at the circus pictures that have of some of there “men”.

Harry's is too woke for my taste. Jmho
Let’s test this new razor on my smooth bald head instead of my big beard
Lmfaooo
My thoughts exactly.
Or balls.😆😆😆
Gillette did me dirty on my subscriptions so now I'm using Harrys and I love it.
Why what did they do
Understand that they have gone woke
I will not be using Harry's razors because they have become woke, I guess they don't want me as a customer!
Yep! Getting harder to find. Let me know if you find another brand worth buying. I'm looking for something now.
Harry’s doesn’t care about u anyways
That is how most companies view their customers before they go out of business!
2:46 won't that flex give the angle ypu desire?
For me it definitely does
The cartridge design looks a lot closer to a slightly better version of Bic Flex 4 than a Fusion or a Hydro lol.
Double edge safety razors have made a huge comeback in recent years, especially since the Gillette commercial. They give a way smoother shave, blades cost way less and don't tug like cartridge ones do, and most of the DE razors themselves are built to last for generations.
I've used safety razors and Harry's razors, for my skin Harry's is better.

I'm here to protest harry's being political.
I just for the first time ever with the Harry’s and I don’t think I’m ever buying Gillette again
Two weeks ago my girlfriend purchased the Harry's Razor and four replacement cartridges. I've used it fourteen straight days with the original cartridge and it still feels brand new on my face. It doesn't nick or cut. I love this razor.
Harry’s has now “Cancelled” their conservative customers, so I will now be canceling them!
I am really upset with the Harry's Razor company for they claim to be pro-LGBTQ+, but they only make razors for men or women ... boycott them!
There are more than two genders according to Harry's Razor company lol
I started using Harry’s a little bit ago and I love the packaging with all the little hidden details
Packaging is great and the brand green looks great BUT the blade is rubbish I just cancelled my subscription for blades and shaving gel today.
if you hone on a pair of old jeans, it works much better and there isnt really a risk of cutting your arm by accident

I've heard that thoroughly drying the blades after use is very important for longevity also.

Wow Harry's must be a really good razor when it says on the brand box their blades are recommended for face shaving not for the head.

Mate you should look into double edge razor shaving aka a safety razor
Far farrrr better shave and you have the choice of roughly a hundred different blades you can get for them
You can even buy blade sample packs that come with a selection of all the most popular blades, but cartridge razors are rubbish
I blow mine out with a can of compressed air, it has doubled the life and always gets the blades perfectly clean
I shave my underarms and nape of the neck. Surprisingly the disposable Harry's razors had lasted me much longer than the refillable ones. It was about 8-9 months for one box of disposables and so far only 3 months for what has been 2-3 refillable razors. I shave once per week, and even though the razors themselves have stayed sharp for long, the refillable razor heads themselves have broken at the joint.
Wal Mart also sells 'em. Same price if I remember right.
last time I was at Wally's I didn't see Harry's
@@roningram5877 I just saw them at Wally World yesterday. A whole bunch of them, even had an endcap display. 10 bucks for a box with the handle and 2 blades.
Been using Harry’s for two yrs now and I love it!
Nice i shave my head with gillette fusion proshield flexball .very smooth. But harry's is nice razor
A woke razor gimme a break. Boycott harrys
Denim works about as well as your arm (or better) for stropping. I've used razors for months by stropping. I'm just starting to use a Harry's razor and I'm getting the sense that it doesn't stay sharp for as long as other brands. I agree with your impression of the weird angle of the razor with respect to the handle.
I am sick and tired of Harry’s as well as Gillette. They insult our intelligence by telling us how to think. If you’re a real man you’ll switch to Jeremy ‘s Razors ASAP and even better Jeremy‘s gives you a much cleaner comfortable shave. Check out their ads fantastic.
Harrys are too expensive Guys. The Aldi bargain 5 blade razor is £3.49 complete with a blade and a refill pack of 4 blades is just £3.99 and last ages. Try them and you won't be disappointed.
Nice to watch a review without some punk trying to be funny, good job.
Heh I know the type, and I really try not to be like that.
I am 51. I have been buying Gillette since I was 14 years old. It will be a cold, cold, COLD day in hell when I ever buy a Gillette product again. I am 100% done...
Same here. Well said.
Harry’s Razors suck. It’s cheap disposal blades in a fancy package.
I have mixed feelings about Harrys blades. I like the handle itself, but the blades clog way to easily and are almost impossible to unclog. Harrys is also not a blade that you want to put a lot of pressure on, especially if you have sensitive skin. In a pinch Harrys is okay, but the Gillette Fusion has been superior in how long each blade has lasted me, as well as comfort, and maintainability.
Harrys razors nicks my face even after changing the blade.. I wasted money on them.
Why cancel micheal knowles?
I like Harry's razors and blades very much. I like the simplicity of the hinge vs the Gilette blade that seems to have alot going on. .It's well balanced and feels comfortable in the hand. For me, the quality of the shave was slightly better than Gillettes five bladed razor. The sharpness of the blades also seem to last a long time. The one knock I have is that the plastic hinge, whose perfomance I really like, breaks after about 5 days. This is too bad as it renders the razor just about useless. Not sure what I will try next.
If you guys want to make your Harry's blades last longer you got to clean it with a spray bottle then use a little piece of paper dehydrate the blade before the liquid water damages it
I used Harrys for the first time today and have more cuts than ever :( Disappointing as I bought quite a few blades
I was curious why Harry's says, Not for head shaving? And your mileage will vary.
They last me a long time...specially now that I don't shave everyday and I wear a mask.
Are you one of those "non-birthing" persons that Harry's CEO was referring to?
These Razors Suck ! ! !
that razor was shit idk how it has any good reviews. I'm not even picky but damn i must've gotten a bad batch or something
You men make me cringe when you touch around the blade like that lol oh my word lol. I bought these for my husband hopefully he likes them
Personally I like Harry's blades a lot. What I like most is the feel when shaving with Harry's, for me the blades have the right amount of drag to feel like they're cutting hair, and giving a close shave. Blades that glide effortlessly over my face with no pull just aren't satisfying to shave with. They may give a close shave, but they don't feel like they are. You have to be careful with the trimmer blade though, using it to get right under my nose, I've cut myself a few times. Definitely need a light touch using it
I just got a Harry's razor from Walmart. I was a subscriber to dollar shave club and I liked them well but my handle broke (it rusted in me with the blade in it my fault completely ). I decided to give Harry's a try. Price point to price point is about the same as Dollar Shave Club. The handle with two blades was $10 just like at Target for you and I ended up getting a four pack of blades which was $9 for 4 which is about the same as Dollar Shave Club. What I like about the cartridge refills is the packaging is awesome. I like how it's put in reusable Packaging. I can use the box to gift one of my many beaded items that I make. I also like the case the cartridges come in way better than Dollar Shave Club. Also what I liked about the starter kit will just call it that it came with a blade cover so if you happen to keep your razor in the shower like I do your blade isn't going to rust nearly as quickly. My problem that I didn't like about it was how to change a blade I've had problems figuring it out but once I did is like oh okay I got this. The other thing that I was skeptical on was how well it would shave my legs. It's been months since I shaved my legs last time I did any hair removal on my legs I used Nair. Not a fan of the smell of Nair or the wait time or dealing with chemicals so I'm went back to shaving. I was highly impressed on how well it handles and coarse hair on my legs and I did use the trimmer blade to make sure that I got all the hair down to the nitty-gritty. The other thing that I didn't care for was how easy it was to Nick myself with the blade. Grand it I nicked myself with any blade whether it's a Disposable Male razor that I got from the Dollar Tree, a disposable female razor that I got from the Dollar Tree, I fancy-schmancy woman's razor from Walmart, or a Harrys Razor. I always Nick myself behind the ankle where your Achilles tendon is Common Pleas for me to Nick. I really like the price point of Harrys Razor and just because I'm a woman doesn't mean I can't use a man's razor. It's funny because women's razors and cartridges I guess that's what they call him are way more expensive than men's and really there is no difference except in this case all my there's a trimmer blade. I like the way to the handle it's very similar to the elite handle I had from Dollar Shave Club. Again will state how I liked the packaging and how reusable the box was. I can use the starter kit box for gift if I wanted to and as for the cartridge box I do have a handmade beaded keychain that I made as a gift in it. I would love to try the Harry's shave lotion if it's available because I absolutely love the shave lotion from Dollar Shave Club it smells amazing and it worked really really well I kind of want to see how Harry's works out. So if any you ladies out there reads this I strongly suggest giving Harry's a try there is no shame and using a male razor.
Best razor this 59 year-old has ever used. Easy to clean, great smooth shave and the blades last longer
My Son is 17 and has always just used an electric razor on his face. I just ordered the Harrys razor because he needs more of a close shave. I just found your video and it was very informative, thank you. Honestly I know this sounds crazy but I have no idea on how to show him to shave the right way with a blade razor. I'm trying to look for Harry shaving videos on "how to" I guess, with no luck. Single mom here. Lol
Gillette fusion proglide flexball o proshield is the best razor for my head. Harry,s ah ah
I've been using this razor for by 8 months. It's not a high quality, but low price.
I like them based on cost.
Finally a positive yet honest comment.
Page 6 of the information included in my Harry's shaver states....."Head Shaver. Heads up. Our blades are designed for your face and we don't recommend them for head shaving. If this is what you were looking for, contact us and we'll help you with a return for a full refund."
It doesn't matter. It works fine
By far the best razor I’ve ever used. Been using the same razor for like 3 - 4 weeks, and still going. It holds on pretty great. And i’m one of those guys that shaves 3 to 4 times a week. The angle is perfect, this dude’s just being a bit of a bitch. You won’t be disappointed. I hardly give an opinion on stuff, but this thing is great. Saved myself more money. IT’S A MUST BUY.
How long would you say one razor lasts mates?!
@@Mattjonesll I actually forgot to erase this comment. They actually dont last as long as you would think. But still beats buying high prices razors. They can last you about 5 - 7 shaves.
I like jeremy's razors the best.
Arrgghh! You didn't list what the music is! BTW, I use Harry's, been using it for several years now, and I love it!
I just started using Harry's. And it's the closest shave I've ever had. The technique I use to keep blades sharp: Dip blades in olive oil and rest it in it's case. Still sharp as ever😎❤😎
The head of this razor is the best feature it perfectly follows the contours of your face this is the sharpest best razor I've ever used I've been searching for a good razor for a while I've went through all the top named brands just seems like the sharpness and quality have went way down in modern razors but not harrys razors hands down best shaving razor I've ever owned.
Awesome review, glad it worked for you. I had the opposite experience. Harry's Blades has literally destroyed my face. I am 26, been shaving for years, but this blade hurts my face. I wish they had a blade for sensitive skin.
I tried Harry's because I was so angry at Gillette about the man-hating advertisement. Now I like the Harry's shave a LOT. Smooth close shave. BUT .....
1. The cartridge hinges though wear out quickly, faster than the blade itself. Once the hinges wear out the blade just flops around. So on balance it lasts much less time than Gillette cartridges, roughly canceling out the cost advantage of Harry's.
2. I think the standard Truman handle is fantastic. I did try the optional chrome Winton model and got severe razor cuts 3 times! The Winton is much more narrow and also NOT rubberized and so it would just spin around once in a while, giving me huge razor cuts around half an inch long or more. This never happened to me even once with 30+ years of using Gillette. So stick with the Truman folks.
3. Also notice that there is no button to release the cartridge from the handle. It just slides off. one time it slide off during a shave and gave me a severe razor cut. Gillette cartridges never slide off because you have to push a button release for the cartridge to come off.
On balance it seems like Gillette is a more mature and bug free design. But then there is the problem that they seem to hate their male customer base. Not sure what to do. We shall see.
Harry has gone totally woke
Ive went from Gilliete Fusion to Harrys and honestly going to switch back to Gillette... Harrys is rough and definitely not as close as the fusion and i seem to get alot of cuts and rashes from harrys. 3/10 from me
I like that they put time into the packaging, although, there is quite a lot of it. It is nice though. I use the boxes for collar stays, Swiss Army knife, etc. to throw in my luggage. I didn’t care for the angle at all, but then I realized the blade had to “click backward” into place; I was trying to use while locked in the “new-in-box” position. Now, I really like it. Accompanying products are nice too.
I just bought one and I swear the packaging costs more than the razor
I got it for 3.18$
It is.
For the price these razors come with they basically validate why Fusion and Hydro has a right to be so costly.
I actually bought this just for the hell of it and I actually was prepared to not like this Harry's razor just because of the angle of the blade being parallel to the handle, and on the first shave, that ended up not being a problem. I am a head shaver as well as my face, although my hair is not super thick. All in all I feel like it's a good product that costs less than leading cartridge razor
how long did they last with honing?
They are great also try Dorco USA.com they are even cheaper than Harry same as DSC blades
Great video, however, how do you know when to change the blade? I started using Harry's razor after using Fusion razor and blades for years, their blades have a blue strip that turns white over time after using, indicating it's time to change the blade, so how is Harry's different?
Tried Harry’s it was ok but mostly marketing hype . I went back to Gillett
I'll never go back to Gillette...they don't want my business, I'm unapologetically masculine, and their "toxic masculinity" nonsense has lost me as a customer forever.
The Harry’s razor is not designed for Head saving. They tell you that upfront.
Dude I just bought one and I felt rough like a cheap disposable razor and when I went for the close shave it was tugging and pulling a lot
I shave with the grain the first pass and (close shave) on the second pass I shave against the grain.
With my double edge razor I don't have any tugging or pulling but it's too aggressive for my liking which is why I tried this Harry's razor which I can compare to a cheap disposable razor.
I always chuckle when I hear Harry's commercials. They state their competitors "Over Engineer" their razors. What is 5 blades about?? LOL
Ive used it already about 10 times and i LOVE THIS RAZER ! Will always want to buy them again!
Worst razor I've ever used.
I just tried that honing technique on my old dull Schick aqua 5 and it worked like new. I got an extremely close shave and was surprised. I guess it is similar to preparing a straight razor on a leather strap.
Sharpen using the same technique on denim.
Geoff Halstead I tried the honing thing like he said on the video and it completely ruined the blade
Just to let you know it's pronounced HARRYS not HAIRIES.
First week with Harry's Razor, Chrome pack from Costco. Have been using a Gillette Twin for years, but it's not available anymore. Harry's is sharp and smooth. Had to adjust to the angle, but I can manage. Stays sharp after a week of head and face shaving. I use moisturizing shampoo for my head and face. No nicks so far. The Costco pack has 13 razor heads and a Chrome handle. The handle could be a bit larger, but I'll adjust to that too. So far, so good!
Humans have oily bodies so when oil is applied to blades it keeps it sharp then the rusted wet blades. I use pressurized canned air to blow dry my razor and i have a oil that gets applied after
I love Gillette fusion proshield flexball chill or mach3 turbo. My head is smooth no cuts. Mach3 turbo is fantastic. Aftre Shave balm Gillette sensitive skin is fantastic ,gel Gillette after shave sensitive skin is fantastic. Nivea men sensitive after shave balm is fantastic.first, thayers witch hazel cucumber.I use cream/soaps proraso, cella ,maca root , with brush. I don't use gel or foam. My head with gillette fusion proshield flexball chill or mach3 is fantastic,super smooth
Harry’s is woke.
Thanks for the video. I noticed when you demoed your honing technique you did it in the opposite direction as the video example. You went down arm. He went up arm. Skin has a grain based on the direction of hairgrowth. It might make a slight difference. Will try it myself and join the honing tribe. Anyway thanks the great video.
Ill never buy another Gillett because of ..... I love Harrys
I’ve been using Harry’s for about 4-5 years . Love em
I use to get alot of shaving bumps on my neck area I started uses Harry's razor and shave cream my neck is clear and no more bumps I have to give this brand a 5 star
1sikGSXR 07 I have issues with razor bumps too. Which Harry’s razor did you use?
Never mind, I see Harry’s only has one type of blade, unlike Dollar Shave Club. May give it a go.
@@chrisl3550 use the shave cream they have too target has it in stock
I'm happy with my Gillette Mach 3 Turbo I buy for $1.30 each at Costco. My deodorant I use Every Man Jack scent Fresh from Whole foods that's also aluminum free. I wouldn't use Harry even if it was Free. The owners of Harry's don't even believe in the product after selling the company!!
I switched from fusion blades to Harrys....after 1 shave i threw the lot in the bin. Absolutely no comparison! Rubbish! I know 2 other guys who had the same results as me.....cuts everywhere
I have watched several of your reviews! I like your no-nonsense does it really do it approach! I have tried Harry’s by subscription. I like their shave foam a lot, but it is expensive compared to the product I normally use and also I found it slowed my sink drain! On the razor, using the single blade between my nose and upper lip just does not work well for me, that is not just a Harry’s issue but for all 5 + 1 razors. I much prefer narrow 3 blade razors like Gillette Sensor 3. Even the disposable of that model does a great job for me!
