Before your very eyes you see the Gillette Fusion disposable razor. This is a product that has changed the face of shaving for men all over the world. When I say "face" I mean it literally. When you log onto the Gillette website you see a page that serves the entirety of the world. They have a missions statement that says something like this : They have been serving men all around the world for 100 years. There products are in the homes of nearly 600 million men. They are committed to giving men the very best and boy do they practice what they preach!
Nothing compares to the Gillette Razor because they have mastered the art of the blade. There are 5 blades on each head of the razor which gives you an extremely close shave. It grabs the hair in ways that other razors can't leaving your face smooth. It has a gel strip just above the blades to give you ultimate protection from razor burn. When the gel strip goes from blue to white you know it's time for a new blade. The blades can last 2-3 months. That's saying you shave 1-2 times a week. That's quite a long time.
Over the summer I was running low on blades and didn't want to spend a tone of money on them so, I purchased the Gillette one blade throw away razors and I had the worst razor burn. It cut up my skin and my face was patchy because the shave wasn't close enough. I got back to school and purchased these blades and I can't tell you the world of a difference. The type of razor you use is truly important.
Due to the fact that this razor has so many blades it isn't very cost affective. Unfortunately, for four disposable blades it cost around $17.00. A pack of 12 blades is close to $40.00. I feel that these prices are a little steep but it has not stopped me from buying them. The shave is just to good pass it up.
Amazon.com conducted a poll with their customers and 1,100 people gave the fusion 5 stars.

Each and every one did shave really great, although they are ridiculously expensive. When I saw these, I thought the planets had aligned in my shaving world. ...not to be sadly. The blades I received were worse than any razor that I have ever used in my 30 plus years of shaving. I've used cheap disposables loaned to me by a friend that were better than these. Perhaps I got a really defective set of blades, but these things HURT from stroke 1, and I'm not a wuss to a rougher shave.
I will give the seller credit for quickly refunding my purchase price and shipping, but I was very bummed that the blades I received were so terrible."
In closing, I would encourage males and females to go to the store and buy this razor and blades. Don't let the price stop you because there is no price for comfort. It leaves your skin feeling smooth. Plus the blades last for a long period of time. It's worth it!
