I wish I could find a Schick that work as well for me as the Gillette Mach 3 (for sensitive skin). I have a combination of thick hair and skin that irritates easily. Normally I shave every 3-5 days to minimize the buildup of very irritated skin. Been that way for 45+ years of shaving.
I despise Gillette for their latest marketing cr@p, but until I find something as good (or better) than the Mach 3, I won't be switching.
The good news is I purchased a bunch with coupons and sales a few years ago (less than $3 per 3-pack), so I won't need to decide until I run out in the next year or two.
Throwing the razors away won't do me any good, and Gillette already has my money. Future purchases are a different matter.
Go old school and shave like a man.
Go on-line and find a good double edge safety razor; a decent boars hair or similar shaving brush; a good shaving creme or soap. I prefer the Jack Black Creme or Chiseled Face Soap.
Most important, go online and buy the Feather titanium coated double edge blades manufactured in Japan. They are the sharpest in the world. I usually buy 100 blades on-line for about $28 and free shipping. Caution, there is a learning curve to do it well and not cut yourself. Even so, keep a styptic pen around.
Bottom line, after the initial outlay you will cut you shaving costs 60% to 70%. And you will have the closest shaves of your life. It is the extra time of peace and quiet I give to myself in the morning to focus and do it well.
I went from the Gillette Mach3(I think) to the Schick Hydro 3 blade - retired, so I shave only two or three times each week, but the blade(s) I put in three months ago is(are) still going strong - smooth, very little pulling unless I haven’t shaved for five or so days - very very few nicks in all those saggy, creasy places that are usually hard to reach - so far seems a good switch.....
