Gillette MACH3 outlast MACH3 Turbo?

[brigden]

Anyone notice that regular Mach3 blades tend to last longer than Mach3 Turbo blades? I find I only get three decent shaves from a Mach3 Turbo before the blades are so dull that they nick my skin.

I find the turbos to be much better than the originals...

 

[brunswickite]

i find the "turbo" is just a marketing ploy and the reg blades work great

(btw i have used both, turbo and reg)

Get the naturally aspirated mach 3. No need for turbo

Seems to be a split decision!

anyone seen the 3 blade disposible sensor?

 

[NewSc2]

Yep. I like the Turbos better, but they don't last as long as the Mach3 regulars.

I used both. Used 5 regular blades, switched in a turbo, and then switched until my 5 pack of turbos was gone. Turbo seemed to do a better job for the first or second time, but faded fast.

I'll stick with my regulars. Cheaper too.

That's how I feel.

I like the way turbos make your skin feel after you finished shaving.

"The Late Show" an Australian comedy television series did a sketch featuring the Gillette 3000 with (if memory serves) 73 lubricating strips and 16 blades.

MadTV had a similar sketch. They didnt call it Gillette though. The demonstration cartoon was friggan hilarious, the blade go in to your skin. hahaha

Three shaves? Good lawd, I'll use the same blade for months. It nicks me more during the first two or three uses than it does for the next eight weeks.

You guys need to learn to shave with proper technique if you get nicks. Sure it loses its sharpness, but I dont get nicks. Shave after a shower, when the hair is really soft.
