Great shave! I just got a mach 3 as well and 3 blades are the perfect amount for my head shave as well. I tried Harrys and the Shick hydro 5 and got irritation on the back of my head.
Hi Mark- Great head shave and razor review; thank you! The Mach 3 was my daily driver for face shaves and head touch-ups for many years before returning to wet-shaving. I definitely needed to apply more pressure with cartridges than I do currently with double-edge razors and the shave was comfortable and efficient with a double-pass. Well, I hope you have a great week and best regards, as always!
Hi there! Thanks for reviewing this interesting product.I love your channel. It's your really relaxed and professional way to describe things. And your very pleasant voice.
Nice head shave, Mark. I shaved my head a few hours ago. I hadn't shaved in a while and decided to break out a Feather to knock down the growth. The Feather did not disappoint. The Mach 3 is pretty nice, it's one of the first razors I used when I started shaving. Your head looks baby butt smooth. I'm kind of jelly, lol.
Must we use scissors to open these plastic packages? I am thinking of (actually tried) another way. First, LOOK FOR any perforations in the carboard support backing label. Next, look for a sharp or not so sharp tool to use for prying. Let your own sense tell you what more.
Glad you tried and liked the Mach 3. It's a good razor for the head and the shave seems to last long 2-3days (for me). It's a good piece of the armamentarium. I also use a lot of balm! Cheers
...those package makers should make security systems.... Mach 3 is okay, but for my face the first pass is too tuggy, now the Sensor I bought...that thing just plows through hair like it was nothing, agains't the grain on the other hand is a little better with the Mach 3. Shame that I ahem to fork out almost 150$ CDN for an original Sensor handle, BUT WORTH IT! Nice vid as usual
Nice head shave mark. I use Gillette fusion prosheild flexball chill or mach3 turbo. Mach3 is great razor,but for me mach3 turbo work better than the mach3 normal.
Thanks, Matteo head shaving.:) Any cart razor with three or fewer blades works well for me.:) An exception would be a Harry's razor (5 blades). Those do a nice job, a well.:) But, I mostly stick to three or less.:) I need to try/compare the Mach3 Turbo.:)
Great video. I just used the Mach 3 two days in a row, and it's making me think I may not even open the Skull Shaver Platinum electric that's arriving in 3 days from Costco. What was the Nivea product you put on near the end? Thanks.
Thanks, MagicSamaritan.:) I used NIVEA Men Sensitive Cooling Post Shave Balm. You can buy it at most stores. Also available on Amazon: amzn.to/380SAp6 (affiliate link).
What would you choose between a Mach 3 and the Thorn (by Leaf)? I have been using a Mach 3 but feel I could possibly get a better shave with something else but not sure
Try something and you will know more surely. Some options are double edge razors. Thorn razor may be a bit more expensive than some of the available double edge razors. You choose according to your experiences and goals.
Hi, Dave.:) I don't really know as I've been switching razors around and doing reviews for different razors. I recently learned that my nephew uses the Mach3 for head shaves and loves it. I'll ask him how many shaves he gets. EDIT -- I asked and he replied. He tells me he does a head shave twice a week and gets between 5 and 10 shaves with the Mach3 depending on how long his hair is.
Ive heard that many people use the Mach3 and the Sensor Excel for their heads.
Keep coming back to the good old Mach 3. Can rely on it to shave my head in the shower, without even needing a mirror and it always does a great job.
I have tried safety razors to save money... But always come back to the good old mach3. Just make sure to get the razorpit too.
Nice. I do this every second day in the shower after a few years it’s like autopilot.
the mach 3 is the best gillette razor. all you need is 3 blades to be honest
Nice video, Mark. And a good shave, too.

Thank you very much, Mike!:) Agree about the pressure.:) Good razor for a head shave.:) Mild, but needs just a tad more pressure than most.:)

I went back to this razor after years of all the 5 and 6 blade things,I love the mach,quicker and better head shave for me
Hi, Kenny Ellis. Yes, I'm hearing from a lot of guys that use this for head shaves.:) A good choice for many.:)

This is a classic razor, what I used before switching over years ago.
Looks like it was first introduced in 1998:)

How many head shaves do you get out of the mach 3 blade

@@MarkSzorady I would say about the same as that. I made records to recheck but that is a chore.
