The packs don't give you an exact count of shaves/days before you swap.

I tend to go 30 days, or 15 shaves.

I change it when it gets dull. Who's anal enough to track how many days they use a razor? :confused:

The shortest that one of my mach 3 turbo cartdidges will last is a month. I try to stretch it out even further. And thats shaving fairly thick hair 6 times a week.

Geez, some of you people must either not grow lots of hair or just have very light hair. I envy you :(

I go a week tops with a razor blade and even then I'm stretching it on the last day or two.

I'm with ya- I can usually go a bit more than a week, but I only shave once on the weekend typically (mach3)

Same here. I shave 7 times a week and get at least a month between changes. I just go until it feels dull on my face.

i change it when it starts feeling uncomfortable against my skin or after my shave. what speeds up this process is the fact that i don't just shave my face with the razor, so it goes dull much quicker.

I change mine whenever those strips on the top and bottem start wearing off. I usually get about 3 weeks out of a head before I change them.
