Razor Blades..

Is it just me, or are refills for razors some of the most over priced consumer products out there on the shelves?

I use a Gillete Mach 3, and I do think their razors are pretty good, much better than any other razor I have tried, but do I really think refills for it are worth $15? Hell no.
$15 dollars for a few grams of metal and plastic...rediculous!

Amen! Preach it brotha! I use the same razor and I agree...refills are RIDICULOUS. Especially when an entire razor with 2 blades costs only 7 bucks.

So, why don't you just buy a new razor each time if it's less than the refills. Just an idea there guys.

Because then you just end up with a bunch of worthless handles and less blades

Well, its probably not it just seems crazy that they get 15 bucks for like 8 razors or something. Its like 2 bucks a pop.

And if your stubble is really coarse like mine, you wear the things out a bit faster than youd like and most Electric ones just dont shave close enough. And seeing as though my girl really only likes to get close when its nice and smooth, theres alot of incentive to make sure its really nice and smooth. So when you have that on the line, it makes the difference.

^[lol] same situation here

Lucky me, my girl likes a stubble! [^]

im starting to grow hair on the side of my face and i kinda have a mustache and my dad said i can shave it if i want but it will just keep growing in faster and thicker so that kinda sucks

^Just get your father to cover the bill for razors for as long as you can, you will be happy

Shaving doesn't make your hair grow any faster (this is just a myth), it's just that you notice it more.

And you're maturing so more hair is srpouting for the first time.

28 days till I'm 18 and i only shave an area of my chin about 2 inches across every other day lol.

i aint shaving yet, i'm almost 17 and there aint much hair yet....

I shave in the morning and in the evening, I too use MAch 3 blades. I go through a 4 pack every 2 weeks. Although I get them for free [:D]

Whats worse is that there is probaly only 1 penny (or cents) worth of material going into those razors

lol its kinda funny i got my first razor yesturday i have no clue what type it is.... my sideburns were starting to grow real fast and a moustache was visible, but now its gone!

For looks yes. But when it comes to getting close, when you start becoming an exfoliating pad it will hurt. Unless shes into that masochist thing.

I use mach 3 also, i shave 1 - 2 times a week. The only problem with it is if you have any zits it cuts it up so bad, and then you gotta clean them off or else more will spring up.[V]

Nope, she's just into very thin stubbles. She dosen't mind it to much, the biggest problem we have is my chin hair gets caught up and ensared in her hair on her head, but other than that it's all good. And I don't have to spend money on razor blades, I use an electric trimmer! HA!

^ and all us 15 year olds get spots [:(] Hate them. lol.

^^ I have an electric one too but I havent found a rotary one (hate the sliding variety) that cuts charp enough and close enough yet and Im NOT willing to spend 200 bucks on one of the high class ones. thats ridiculous Ill spend the 200 on a coaster trip thank you very much.

Yea, that happens with my girl too. But thats not so much a problem as when I dont shave for awhile and she goes to kiss me and then gets razed by stubble. So, if I want lovin, I gotta shave.


Its ok, I cant pull off that "stubble - unkept" look very well. Im more of a clean cut man.

Yeah make sure you have experience if you plan on balding you "happy place" because otherwise it'll be a "not-so-happy place-that-happens-to-be-bleeding".
