Harry's Razor Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 авг 2024
- Join me as I unbox, test, and give my un-filtered opinion of the Harry's men's razor and a couple of other Harry's products.
On this channel we search for quality and value. When reviewing products we do our best to share the information that the average guy really wants and needs to know. Today we're going really in depth on the Harry's men's product line.
I always appreciate your super detailed overviews on stuff and your honest opinions.
A few years ago, I switched to using a safety razor and never looked back. It costs me literally a few pennies per shave. It’s also the best shave for my skin and hair type that I’ve found. I’ll probably pass on using Harry’s but just wanted to leave a comment anyway.
Understood on the pass🤣. Nevertheless I try to get the information out there so guys can make well informed decisions. Working on safety razor next. I’m really excited to try it out!
And thanks for taking the time to comment, it’s much appreciated!
I like the Harry's razor for the back of my neck and shoulder areas. I use it for a quick face shave on occasion as well. In my opinion, safety razors are the way to go!! Blades are super cheap and can be fully recycled! A safety razor can last a lifetime with wonderful shaves! A single edge cuts so much smoother without the irritation multi blades do. Plus, there are numerous options available with blades, soaps, creams, brushes, handles, etc. It will actually become something you look forward to doing instead of being a chore! Cartridge razors have their place, but try double edge shaving, you won't look back! Thanks for the videos!
Hey Jim! Thanks a bunch for checking out the video! Much appreciated.
And agreed, think Harry’s would be a good secondary razor for a person who shaves with a safety razor. And yes, I’m working on safety razor now. It’ll be a couple of weeks, I need to spend some time with the razor. By the way which safety razor do you recommend? Thanks again!
@@fitnessnbeer9835 A Merkur 34c or an Edwin Jagger DE89. They are great entry level razors.
Also, I would recommend the King C. Gillette safety razor. You can purchase that for only $30 at a Walgreens, CVS, etc. It comes with a 5 pack of their blades! They are an excellent blade!
@@JimG7755 Oh cool. I got the Merkur mk34c. I was torn between that and King C Gillette. The Gillette was appealing because it was cheaper. It ultimately went with the Merkur. Thanks for the insight!
Larry your videos and editing skills are amazing! Before I settled on DE razors I went down the path of trying every cartridge razor out there, I tried Harry’s and didn’t like it either. The blades were rough and not coated so irritation was a big problem. DE shaving changed all of that.
RK, I’m sorry I didn’t respond to this earlier. I really try to respond to every comment. And yo I really appreciate your contributions to the channel!👍🏾. Happy Friday my man!
I didn’t love Harry’s either but i do think there’s some quality cartridge razors out there. Do they compare to the DE experience, nah! But again that’s for connoisseurs🤣
@@fitnessnbeer9835 Hi Larry, no problem, my RUclips notifications have been going to my junk mail so I just saw your response. There are some cartridges that are decent, but it doesn’t compare to DE razors, you should definitely try a leaf twig razor, you have to snap a DE blade in half so a box of 100 lasts a long time. I think you would enjoy using it on your face and head. Well it’s Saturday, so happy weekend. Also check out Melly Mel shaves his RUclips channel is great. Glad you made the switch from carts.🌞🕶
I tried out the Leaf (the pivot head model) and regardless of how I put the blades in (top, middle, or bottom) the thing gave me nicks and head cuts. I am curious about the Leaf Twig and Leaf Thorn though and waiting for more reviews on their head shave performance.
@@brianhakey2287 I don’t head shave but the thorn and twig are very smooth shavers for your face.
@@fitnessnbeer9835 Yes. Gillette Proglide works well for me with a sensitive skin shave gel. Shave gently not fast is the key.
You produced a great video.. like the framing, sound, and you way of explaining your views. I just got the Harry razor because I wanted to try it out. i couldn’t figure out what the plastic was for and you solved that! Regarding the razor did you know it says “Not recommended for head shaving” on the box? Maybe thats why the pivot point is much different than other razors. I will give it a try this morning, for face shaving, and see if what I think. Thanks again for your video!
🤣 I didn’t know Harry’s razors weren’t for head shaving at the time of making the video. However it wasn’t a bad head shave in comparison to many razors. Strange they would exclude head shaving🤷🏾♂️. Seem like it would limit marketing potential.
Thanks a bunch for checking out the video and for your comments! Let me know what you think after trying?
I tried a web search on this "not recommended for head shaving" directive. Results I found were mixed. The product does (now, if not before) come packaged with instructions telling the customer that the razor is not designed for head shaving.
Good review with excellent observations. I have used Harry’s for a couple of years now but looking to try others, so all your reviews have been really helpful. Thank you Larry.
I am so sorry I didn’t respond to this sooner! Big thank for watching and for this comment. I def think Harry’s is a respectable razor at a fair price even tho it wasn’t my fave. Have you had a chance to try it yet?
I like how you go thoroughly in detail of your reviews.
For me though the Gillette Labs Ex is the Cart Razor for me. There’s no razor with cartridge that comes close, the comfortability in the stroke of shave, the ergonomics of the handle, the ease of use with or without cream, the revised cartridge of Fusion5 and Proglide, hey even a magnetic base. Hands down best of until the next one… I’m not a Gillette fan boi btw just it is that good.
Thank you. I really try to share the important information or at least answer the questions I would have.
And I hear ya. I think the Gillette labs gives a great shave too. But I don’t think it’s that much better than its competitors to justify the price. And I’m also with you on the stand. Good to hear from ya!
@@fitnessnbeer9835 hey thank you 🙏, yea the price is definitely a downside of it, especially the cartridge’s!!!! 34 - 42$ depending on where you go for 6!!!! Dang you Gillette!!!!
Are use the Gillette five, the five blade and I can use it for one month and it still good, is the one that you use also a five blade? The Gillette labs X
@@moisesperez4605 yes sir it is, with precision trimmer, I don’t use cream, can last 60-90 days 1 cartridge
This is really a super informative video, Larry, I am always looking for the next best thing for head shaving. I saw a negative review on the HeadBlade Moto where someone mentioned that the Harry’s 5 was superior to the HeadBlade. I have the HeadBlade, but haven’t used it in a while so I was shopping for blades when I came across that. My search continues lol; keep up the great work and sorry about the truck door 😮
Thanks a bunch for this comment and for checking out the video! I didn’t love Harry’s razors but simultaneously I didn’t think they were bad and they’re worth trying. Never heard of the Moto but I’m going to look it up. Let me know what you think of Harry’s if you try it.
Harry's is my new favorite razor. I was using the Schick quattro previously. Every man's face & skin are different. The pivot point of the head is definitely different & I thought I'd hate it but I actually love it. I feel like it keeps the head of the razor flat against the skin and prevents too much pressure to be applied. Anyways great videos you have. Love your comparison
Agreed 100%. Everyone is different and so are their razor preferences.
The flex didn’t work for me so it prevented me from appreciating the cartridge blades. But I like Harry’s products and have been using their shaving cream and deodorant since I made this video. I also think Harry’s is fairly priced. Glad you found a razor that you really like at a fair price!! Big thanks for supporting the channel!
@@fitnessnbeer9835 There's so many options for us men to shave today. Our grandpa's had fewer options. I haven't even tried electric so that's my next move. Just to experience it.
Sam's Club carries Harry's razors both in-store and online.
Thanks for the heads up! I thought Harry’s might be in more places, thanks for confirming! And for checking out the video!
Harrys say’s that these Razor is not for the Head LoL. I live in Germany and Harrys Razorblades are produced here in Germany. I have a King C Gillette Safety Razor… But i want a faster and sensitive shave, so I’ll try the Harrys Razor.
🤣I didn't know Harry's razors weren't meant for head shaving but I felt that it performed fine as a head shaver. It wasn't my favorite razor but I still think it's worth trying. I also have a King C. Gillette and they're pretty different as far as razor experiences go. Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@fitnessnbeer9835 the Harrys hurts and cuts my skin :/ … i think I’ll try the Gillette Labs for my morning routine.
@@Flonkk bum deal on the Harry’s. It stinks that the blades cut you. I didn’t have a problem with the blades but didn’t love the flex.
I think the Gillette labs is a smoother shave. Let me know what you think after trying?
@@fitnessnbeer9835 The Gillette Labs is awesome! No cuts, no hurts. Everything fine! 👍
@@Flonkk love to hear that! I like the Gillette Labs much better too. I learned that everyone’s different, especially when it comes to razors.
The Gillette labs cartridges are expensive, too expensive! But at least they last a good while.
You're spot on Larry! Great blades but can't get enough pressure for a very close shave.
Exactly! You said that much better than I did.🤣
Thanks for checking out the video and commenting!
@@fitnessnbeer9835 👍My pleasure Larry! Glad I discovered your channel👍
4:55 is that a Hackintosh???
That's definitely MacOS but it doesn't look like a Macbook, unless it has some kind of case on it.
Yessir it’s a Mac. And yes it’s in a case. Love this Mac for video editing!
Thanks for commenting!
Hey man great work with your other video sending all those razors to the guys and all,, it was a cool experiment 👍👍 but looking how the Schick quattro was the winner I was thinking you should have included the Gillette Mach 3 on the competition,, if you check the Wirecutter article about razors the mach 3 is the one they recommend,, also lots of guys out there (including myself) think 3 blade razors is the right way to go, anything up from that is just overkill,, the mach 3 was Gillette as it best, all the newest models after that were just gimmick after gimmick. The mach 3 from its launch to this day has become just a classic product man, and they still are selling that thing quite well.. but anyway man just saying, nice work, keep going 👍👋🏼
Yo thanks and much appreciated! 👍🏾👏🏾
Funny you say that. I actually recorded a section talking about why the Mach3 wasn’t in the competition but ended up cutting it out. I agree with you about the Mach3 being a comfortable shave and revolutionary in its time. The reason it wasn’t included is because 3 other Gillette razors were higher in the search results. The Mach3 was actually 4th and higher in the search results than all of the other brands but I just had too many Gillette products. Also it seems Gillette puts most of its marketing push behind other products.
I also agree that the Mach3 is good enough but I do think there is a difference between the Mach3 and the 5 blade razors. I personally like the Gillette labs and Fusion5 better, I think they’re a little more efficient. However I can see how some may disagree. Big thanks for sharing your insights!
@@fitnessnbeer9835 I get your point man but it's also worth mentioning that measuring performance in a razor is such a subjective thing to do, there's so much factors to take into account like shave frequency, type of hair/race, skin conditions like acne, rosacea, dermatitis and so on ,, so the bottom line is just to use whatever works the best for you,, in my case I prefer to compare not only performance but performance and price side to side.. if I have 2 razors that gives me both equally good shaves but one of the razors is 2 or 3 times cheaper than the other i am going with the cheapest one for sure.. the thing is paying 2x 3x more for the latest and fanciest razor does not translate in getting 2x 3x times better performance.. and definitely those brands want us to buy theirs latest, fanciest and pricier products 😂 and will push all that marketing with those products even overshadowing their own products that deliver the same or almost the same for way less money 💰💰💰 but idk maybe sometimes it's good for us to have the latest and fanciest things and we end up taking the bait 😂
@@JhosuaCastellano TRUTH! I agree with EVERYTHING you just said 100%👏🏾
@@JhosuaCastellano Also, that’s such a good point and is similar to the conclusion that I would have liked to have come across in the video.
Harry’s is the best razor for me, face and head since 2017
Big thanks for checking out the video and sharing your experience!
That’s awesome that Harry’s works well for you, I think they’re very fairly priced. Harry isn’t my favorite but they’re not bad and there’s a lot worse options.
Honestly I love these razors
Big thanks for checking out the video and sharing your thoughts.
That’s great, I think Harry’s is one of the more fairly priced razors available.
Hi i like wet shaving and been bald head and face. I tried the Defender and its the closest shave for me til now. I have skinguard. The razor eraser. Not to close enough. I want to try another cartridge razor. Which razor is your everyday head shaver thats your favorite .youre truly opinion. Godbless you always and your family
Hey Julio! I really like the Gillette Labs but I don't think it's so much better than other razors that it's worth $6/cartridge. However it's my favorite head shave because of its efficiency. Unfortunately I've never tried the Defender or Skinguard to compare.
Thanks a bunch for your question and for watching!
Great review, entertaining and very informative
Thanks a bunch for checking out the video and commenting! I do hope it was helpful.
I tried this razor and I don't feel like it gave me a close enough shave I was really disappointed I really wanted to like it I'll use it until the blade and all my spare blades are gone then no more
Understood, it’s not my favorite either (as if I didn’t mention that in the video🤣).
However i still don’t think it’s a bad product. I would do the same thing, use the razor I already had and move on. Thanks a bunch for your comment!👍🏾
I don't like that kind of flex, since it also reduces control over cut angle. A classic straight razor works better for me than any cartridge system I've used. (not talking "safety" razors. those can mangle your face with the corners and such.)
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!
I can deal with some flex but too much is uncomfortable. Never tried a straight razor, (you mean like an un-sheltered blade correct? ) How is that to use?
@@fitnessnbeer9835 The classic straight razor is the thing Sweeny Todd was using, if you've ever seen that. (I can't recall if I've ever used one of the curved relatives) They generally fold into the handle to protect the blade from dulling and everything else from the blade.
(The handles need replacing far more frequently than the blade. Friend of mine shaves using blades from the 1800s.)
I found it easier to learn than a cartridge, personally, but some of that might have been relative ages. I was years into shaving when I tried my first straight razor.
The biggest advantage is the ability to keep it really sharp. You strop that thing every few swipes and it remains like new, even cutting my absurdly hard beard.
The hardest thing to get used to is holding the thing at the best angle to cut. It's a pretty good trick to sort of swoop over sensitive spots in multiple passes to be sure you get the angles right without risking pulling in and nicking yourself.
While the possible severity of getting cut is higher, I have found that the amount of nicks and cuts I get are dramatically lower. The sharpness of the blade matters a great deal to this.
Art of Manliness put up a pretty solid description of the process: (if it'll allow an offsite link, here you are:
www.artofmanliness.com/style/shaving/how-to-straight-razor-shave/ )
Me? No; I never tried a Harry's razor. I wonder can you tell us how the Harry's razor compares to the Gillette Fusion 5 ?
I personally like the Fusion 5 better but I’m sure that depends on personal preference. Although not my fave, I think Harry’s is respectable for the price and some may even prefer it.
Thanks for checking out the video!
Great review!
Thanks a bunch for checking out the video! We really enjoyed the Grove but it’s been a while since we visited. Hope it’s still cool. We hope to go back soon!
Good review ,.. subbed
Big thanks for checking out the video and subscribing! Much appreciated.
Just though i should mention, got this razor for christmas and on every shave i got cuts. That never happens with my dollar shave club razor.
I thought Harry’s was okay but I understand cuts are a dealbreaker. Glad DSC works out.
Um It says right on the website quote, "Our razors are designed for your face, and not recommended for head shaving."
Yes it totally does say not recommended for head shaving. I find it strange because as a head shaver I think Harry’s preforms just as capably as most razors. Also any razor I use generally has to perform double duty.
Big thanks for checking out the video and sharing your thoughts!
How could any safety razor be designed for shaving the face but not permitted for shaving the one, if person has the technical skill to do it?
I just use a the leaf razor . Saves me money and I get a great shave
I haven’t tried the leaf yet but I def want to check it out the leaf twig single blade. Safety razors are big savings.
Thanks for checking out the video and commenting!
The Haary's razor has been my razor of choice, why the blase quality. That said the point of contact where the cartridge lock on the handle is not great. I am thinking something we bit more robust might help that popping of the handle issue.
The 5th blase is not great it is hard to get good contact again I am not a fan of the 5th blade on any razor.
Shave quality is must take into account, skin and beard type, blade, and lotion. I used to use shave creams, gets, etc and non absolutely non gave me a great finish. Until I discovered by happenstance. I was in the local store looking for charcoal soap and what caught my eye was Maple Syrup vegan organic soap. About a week later I ran out of shave cream and it hit me. Maple syrup is anti-microbial and the soap lathers extremely well...heck let's give it a try as a shave alternative.
The results for me were outstanding I have never had a face and full head shave as close to this with any shaving product, ever.
Bad news the company that makes the Maple Soap line no longer produces that or their charcoal line. They had told me these were 2 lines that did not sell as well as their others. I am buying as many of these bars as I can get my hands on. Though there are other manufacturers in the US who make Maple Vegan Soap.
Thanks for checking out the video and sharing. I’m sure there’s other charcoal or maple soaps on the market that might work similarly. However it stinks when you find something that works well and then it’s discontinued.
They have them at Walmart too !
Yes I’ve seen Harry’s in Walmart, Walgreens, and the local grocery store. They’re pretty much everywhere razors are sold nowadays.
Big thanks for checking out the video and commenting!
It’s 2024 and I’m honestly surprised at how many BM still use Razors. It’s the quickest way for BM to get Razor-Bumps. Get a “Quality Shaver” fella’s if you are a Brotha. Peace
Like Harry's razors and their other products. Find that the quality is good at a good price point.
I agree, I think Harry’s products are fairly priced also. Although their razors aren’t my favorite, they’re still pretty good for the price. Big thanks for checking out the video and commenting!
want to try harry's razor, but will NEVER SIGN UP FOR SUBSCRIPTION BEFORE CHECKING OUT PRODUCT....AND I DONT BELIEVE YOU WHEN YOU SAY...QUIT AT any time.
Yo the good news is Harry’s is sold in most stores. I didn’t realize they are in most stores where razors are sold including Walmart, Target, Walgreens etc. Also you can make a 1 time purchase on Amazon. You can def try without getting a subscription. Big thanks for checking out the video!
Great razor and blades. BUT. They keep sending me balm after shave,and calling them to stop didnt help. I now have 12 bottles under the sink. Yesterday was the last straw and I canceled my service.The person on the phone didnt seem to care. Eric N
I’ve used Harry’s a bunch since making this video. It’s still not my favorite but agreed, it’s good for the price! That’s a bum deal on the subscription service not getting your order right. The good news is that Harry’s is still fairly priced without the subscription.
Big thanks for checking out the video and sharing your experience!
I hope you were able to sell the balm because in fact, the balm does work well.
To sharp for me 1st pull I could tell it was way to sharp. I was scared about irritation and cuts!
I thought the blades were okay but I wasn’t to fond of the flex. However irritation and cuts are an absolute “no go!”
Big thanks for watching and sharing.
What razor do you recommend I like harry's razor
The things that I’ve learned most from doing razor challenges is that razor preference is mostly subjective with some consistencies. I actually think Harry’s is a good razor and is priced reasonably, if you like it stick with it.
My fave is the Gillette Labs but I also don’t think it’s not worth $6 per cartridge. Thanks a bunch for checking out the video!
@@fitnessnbeer9835 I agree with you I love Harry's razor is great first time try it yesterday great price to
I have not tried Harry's razors, but Gillette Fusion5 and Gillette Mach3 will work well; at least if not many days of growth. I have tried G. Mach3 for some head shaves and it is very smooth.
👍👍👍👍👍
Big thanks for checking out the video and leaving a comment!
LIDL has a slightly different one-they are all made in germany
That’s interesting. I’ve now received comment a few times telling me that LIDL razors are decent and fairly priced. I’m going to have to look into.
Thanks for checking out the video and sharing!
@@fitnessnbeer9835 they had the 5 blade Version called SHARK-that one was 👌🏾real good!They don't have any more thow-the new one is called Comfort 5.This one is a major down grade ,compared to the Shark-the contour trimmer on the back is Traaaassshhhh-the 5blades are OK!
So if you can get your hands on the old Shark Version, then get'em!!!
Just bough one from target i found a hair in a sealed hair razor im grossed out
Understood! That’d gross me out too! That would possibly turn me off to the entire brand. Really strange though!
I switched from fusion blades to Harrys and regreted it straight away....what a huge mistake. I know 2 other guys that have had the exact same experience. They absolutely cut my face up. Threw the razor and blades away after the first shave. Rubbish
Big thanks for checking out the video and sharing your experience. I like Fusion better too but I at least had an okay experience with Harry’s. No cuts. But a few people have mentioned that they receive cuts from Harry’s. Seems like when Harry’s doesn’t work, it really doesn’t work!
supermarket 5 bladers from aldi and lidl are just as good
🤔. I don’t know about that one. I’ve had terrible experiences with off-brand cheap razors. Harry’s isn’t my favorite but it’s not terrible IMO. Thanks so much for commenting!
Sh#t razor stick to safety razors the best option. Anyway interesting video
Big thanks for checking out the video! I like a good safety razor but I’m not convinced it’s the best sold for everyone. I got some more safety razors reviews coming up. Geese this shaving thing does deep!
NAW, THEY WENT WOKE AND ARE NOW THE RAZOR FOR TRANSFORMERS. THEIR RIGHT UP THERE WITH BUD LIGHT.
🤣. I’m not sure what bud light did?
Thanks for checking out the video and commenting!
Really dude, you don't know what Bud light did ? You still on this planet, right?
He's right, that's why I switched. They lost me forever!!!!@@fitnessnbeer9835
Worst razor I have ever used.
Thanks for checking out the video and sharing your thoughts.
I didn’t think it was that bad, I thought it was serviceable especially for the price. But this is why we have the conversations. We’re all different and it’s great to assess other guys opinions.
Harry's are garbage.
Jeremys Razors are way better. I just made the switch.
I plan on trying Jeremy's, they look like quality razors. I don't think Harry's is garbage but as I said in the video (bout 10 times😆) they're not my favorite. Thanks for commenting.
@@fitnessnbeer9835 Jeremys Razors exists thanks to Harrys Razors 😃👍
@@rider3859 I know. I don't know how I feel about attaching a razor to political interests but the Jeremy's razor commercial is hilarious. Looking forward to trying them out!
@@fitnessnbeer9835 Harry's made it political
It's a shame...
Please shut off the water when not using, it's important we preserve a finite resource.
Yes you are right. I try to remember to shut it off even when the camera is not recording but sometimes I mess up.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏾
How about a guy without a beard to test a razor?
I hear ya and respect the opinion. I shave both my head and enough of my face that I cover a lot of surface area. And I value the feel and results of my shave. But I understand that it’s not the same as a full face shave.
Big thanks for checking out the video and sharing your thoughts!
But he DID do a full head-shave. This makes his assessment and commentary worth the watch.
Harrys is garbage. Buy Jeremy's razors instead.
Guess Harry’s didn’t learn from Bud Light and target! 😂 nothing like putting a woman, pretending to be a man on their commercials.
🤣. No they didn’t! These companies would do better to not force social stances.
Thanks for checking out the video!
Just let everyone & everything be like it’s always been, there’s no need to affirm or cater to anyone specifically or cram anyone’s sexuality down everyone’s throat. No 1 actually cares until it’s force fed to them & starts directly affecting them, their families & personal beliefs/culture etc. All I care about is being left alone to live my life & properly raise my kids how I see fit without anyone’s interference. If we don’t get ahold of this craziness, our future generations are doomed.
Anytime brother, great explanation & video. Appreciate the feedback, most people don’t bother responding to anyone. That’s how you gain subscribers.
@@Fox_406 Thanks sir! I appreciate the comment. And agreed. I think everyone is worthy of respect regardless of race, gender, sexuality, political affiliation etc.
But I also believe there’s appropriate spaces for social commentary and it does not have to be force fed in beer and razor commercials.🤣
That’s for sure. Leave our beer and razors alone 😂. We don’t have much left. Much love. Your doing a great job with your channel, keep going the great work!
