In terms of the blades. I get a couple of extra shaves out of a Fusion 5 replacement blade. I can only guess that is because of the Fusion 5 having 5 blades rather than 3. You might get a lot more than me from both razors as I like blades that are quite new.
@@shavingadvisor well, I usually use a Safety Razor with a feather, Bic or Wilkinson blade, but they are forbidden in planes. So I was thinking about buying something only for traveling. But sometimes I stay more than 10 days and I want something to last. I shave once every 2-3 days and I have strange skin, sometimes it is sensible sometimes I can shave even with a grater.
@@shavingadvisor well, I usually use a Safety Razor with a Feather, Bic or Wilkinson blade, but they are forbidden in the plane. I need something for traveling. Sometimes I stay more than 10 days, I shave once 2-3 days. I have very strange skin, sometimes I can shave even with a grater, but something my skin just explodes.(I have curly tough hair, medium course hair). What do you recommend? (I already own a Mach 3 that does a pretty decent job, 2 passes. It's really worth a fusion 5?)
Been using the fusion5 a while now for my head, as I got quite a few moles it really makes a huge difference in comfort compared to disposable cheap razors. Didn´t know about the trimming blade on top of the cartridge though, thanks!
Yeah, the Fusion 5 will head shave much better than the cheaper disposables. I believe that wide orange microfin strip helps a lot. Thanks for your comment!
@terrellking4174 Only slight, but that's when the growth was pretty thick, over 3 days (happens with most razors). It should not tug on normal or light stubble unless the blades have dulled. I go slower on thicker growth, which also prevents tugging. Bit of a long answer, but it's not a plain yes or no on that one. 👍
@terrellking4174 If you don't have skin sensitivities and more so prone to any types of bumps or spots, then the Mach3. The SkinGuard is great for shaving most areas when a person has skin issues, as it does not shave as close. I found the Fusion 5 very good and better for head shaving, but the Mach3 is still good.
I have used safety razors for head shaving and still can. However, the top of the head is always a struggle compared to a cartridge type razor--the head is so solid and without flex movement. I will put together a video on comparing a DE and mulit-blade at some point. I have more to do with trying a couple of single edge razors for head shaving as the head design looks like it might work better than a DE. Thanks
Hi, a few months ago Gillette (Fusion, Mach, Proglide...) changed the type of head, now it has a larger lubricant bar and the edges are a little bigger. The truth is that it irritates me a lot more and shaving is very uncomfortable, what do you think? Do you find them the same?
I have just got the new Fusion 5 and will be using it, so I can't say much as yet. I will have to check on the Mach3 and Proglide as I didn't know they had changed. Maybe your skin will settle into the change. Keep me posted, and I will have new content about these soon. Thanks for sharing 👍

Which one will really last longer? (From your experience).

What razor cartridge razor would you recommend for sensitive skin
Been using the fusion5 a while now for my head, as I got quite a few moles it really makes a huge difference in comfort compared to disposable cheap razors. Didn´t know about the trimming blade on top of the cartridge though, thanks!

Some say that 1 wears out faster than the other... what has been your experience?
The Fusion lasts a couple of extra shaves for me. Possible because of the extra blades.
@@shavingadvisor was there any tugging and pulling with the Mach 3

@@shavingadvisor which one would u recommend for head shaving the Mach 3 or the skin guard

Mach 3 all the way for me just gives me more control.
Cool. Truth is, if you are a cartridge razor user, the Mach 3 has always been enough. Thanks for sharing!

@@shavingadvisor looking forward to the video on safety razors vs cartridge razors
@@terrellking4174 Thanks. All in good time 😉👍
