5.0 out of 5 stars Finally...., May 22, 2004

By	Eric Gould (Austin, TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Gillette Sensor3 System Replacement Cartridges, Pack of 8 Cartridges (Health and Beauty)

After trying every major brand of electric razors, the Mach 3 turbo, and the Schick Quattro, these new Sensor Blades finally give me what I want: a close shave with minimal irritation. I was never a fan of the Mach 3 design because I could never find the right angle to shave with the odd handle/blade design. These new Sensor blades use the more traditional handle design with a the quality blades you expect from Gillette. I'm getting a good, close shave with very little irritation and ingrowns.

I also use King of Shaves gel. After spending years trying to find the right combitnation of blades and creams, I think I've found what works for me.

Plus, these blades are cheaper than the Mach 3 line.

5.0 out of 5 stars FINALLY! Something that works on my face!, June 9, 2005

By	PhillyDuke "A Modern-Day Renaissance Man" (Philadelphia, PA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Gillette Sensor3 System Replacement Cartridges, Pack of 8 Cartridges (Health and Beauty)

I have the worst possible combination for shaving: a thick beard and sensitive skin. Ingrown hairs and razor bumps were a weekly, if not daily occurance for me. I started off as a teenager with the original Sensor. When that got too painful I transitioned to the Sensor Excel. That served me well through my college years, where I could get away with shaving every 2 or 3 days. I found that my face needed a day or 2 off before I could shave comfortably again. When I entered the workforce, the president of my company noticed the stubble on my face during my "off" days and insisted that I shave every day. Well, after about a week of daily use with the Excel, my neck was about as raw and sore as it ever had been. That was about the time that Gillette introduced the Mach3. I transitioned to that, and eventually the Mach3 Turbo, but I was STILL getting ingrown hairs and razor bumps.

I did some research and found that my technique (shaving against "the grain" without shaving with the grain first) was causing a great deal of my problems, so I started to change my ways with less than stellar results. The Mach3 was designed to be used "against the grain", and shaving in the direction of my hair growth produced almost no results at all. I couldn't even feel the razor cutting anything as I pulled it down along my face and neck. In addition, the added width of the blades made it nearly impossible to shave the areas underneath my nostrils. I had to keep my old Sensor handy to tackle that area when I was done with the rest of my face. My fiancee suggested spending $20 on the new battery-powered Mach3...no, thank you!

Then I saw the Senor3, and decided to give it a try. The blades were cheaper than the Mach3 (even at Costco Warehouse prices), so it wasn't much of an investment for the experiment. All I have to say is, "THANK GOODNESS!" The Sensor3 has the best of both worlds between the Excel and the Mach3. The blades fit any Sensor handle, which is a more traditional feel than the initially-awkward feel of the Mach3, so I didn't have to invest in a whole new system. It has 3 blades instead of 2, so it's more comfortable that the 2-blade Senors AND I can get to the area under my nose. But the best part is I can shave WITH the grain and get a very acceptable, although not perfect, results. To the outside world I look clean-shaven every day, even though I can feel a tiny bit of stubble. That's a fair trade-off for not being in pain all the time.

I now shave daily with hardly any irritation, and on special occassions when I need my shave to be extra close, I re-lather after the first go around, shave lightly against the grain, and I'm as smooth as a baby's backside. I've also invested in a few other items that have added to my comfort. The "Art of Shaving" products are a godsend. Invest in the Pre-Shave oil, trust me. I also went "retro" and picked up their shaving cream and brush. Guys, your woman will DEFINITELY think it's sexy when she sees you lathering up if you go that route. I think I FINALLY found something that works for me after 15 years of shaving!

5.0 out of 5 stars BETTER THAN THE MACH 3, December 13, 2004

By	Michael A. Schaffer "Smooth Operator" (Cleveland, OH USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Gillette Sensor3 System Replacement Cartridges, Pack of 8 Cartridges (Health and Beauty)

This razor is more accurate, cuts closer and is less irritating than the Mach 3. FINALLY, the original super accurate sensor comes with three blades! I let my little bro try it and he threw out his Mach 3 as did I. BOOYYAAACCAAASHEE.
