People using those Gillette multi blades are throwing money away. The double edge safety razor is much cheaper even if you throw out the blade every 2 or so shaves.

Strongly recommend buying a cheaper handle and trying the blades for a few weeks. Everyone I’ve recommended them to and has tried them has made a permanent switch.



I suffered for years from massive razor burns and ingrown hairs from Gillette.

Then I went to DE, full on badger hair brush for lather, the works. Life was better but not perfect.

On one vacation I had forgotten to bring any shaving gear, and locally the only thing sold was Schick razors.

Turns out, no irritation and a great shave from their multi-blade disposable.

People should try all the products on the market and see what works best for them!


I used them some for a month, and off and on since. I had high hopes, but find the shave worse quality, more difficult, and nicked myself some. Went back to Gillette.
