The Gillette "Fusion"
    #5447654 - 03/27/06 01:47 PM (17 years, 10 months ago)

It's time for me to be a corporate shill.



This is the new razor that has been released by the Gillette company. It has two incarnations; the first is a regular shaver and the second is a shaver with a battery in it. I guess the battery "stimulates" the hair folicles or something like that.

The battery one was a little too rich for my blood so I got the regular one. The Fusion has five razor blades on the head! Five motherfucking blades. The shave is smooth and nice. My Gillette Mach 3's work OK...but I often rip up my face with them. I get no rippage with the Fusion.

The Fusion is awesome!

When I saw this commercial come on during the Superbowl, I almost died laughing.

Before growing out my beard, I used a Gillete Mach 3 turbo...three bladed head and the battery "stimulator" thing. It gives a very excellent shave. I never cut myself with it and never got the after shave itch deal.

They may make corny commercials for it...but the shit works. 

Like I said, my Mach 3's sometimes rip my face to hell so much that it looks like I have leprosy.  But, the next day the Mach 3 will give me an incredibly smooth shave.  It is just sporadic.  :shrug:

I was pissed because it was so damn obvious that was the next step up. 3 then 4 now 5. I was pissed when schick came out with the 4 because there's was obviously room for one more blade in there. I was like wtf? why bother with 4. just go straight to 5 like everyone knows someone's going to! AAhHHH haha sorry just my rant about a let down of a superbowl commercial. The razor seems pretty cool though.

what I hate about shaving devices like that is that they always seem to fill up with hairs that you can't get out and makes shaving suck

Maybe the electric ones do...but I am referring to the Gillette Fusion. It has a classic razor setup (sharp blades which you have to manually move across your face).

I also have one of these for when I need to do a "quick" shave on the run:



It is one of the "nice" ones (over $100) and to be honest it kind of sucks. The shave is not even close at all. You can't beat razors. But...you take a chance of cutting your face up with razors though.

5 blades? cmon, they are going crazy with this shit.

It'd be funny if SNL did one of those skits with someone trying to shave with a razor the size of a shovel that has 100 blades.

i think the only actually useful thing on that new razor is the one blade on the back for sideburns... i always find it hard to hit the exact right spot around my sideburns and goatee when shaving with the mach3... that one blade might prove itself to be pretty helpful...

Real men shave with a straight razor.




With that said, I don't shave with one anymore. It's way too time-consuming and takes a long time for one to truly master such an art of shaving with a straight razor - at least, if we're talking about as close as a shave as one can get.
