Benji Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 I was an avid user of gillette, but decided to change it for the crack, so I started using Wilkinson 3d protector blade and OMFG! it sucks ass.I've never had a shave as bad as that EVER... Livid by this I sent a very strong message to wilkinson telling them they're product is crap, and will never be as good as Gillette as it doesn't seem to understabd the dynamics of shaving... what do they give me? A bloody coupon for more of their products!!! :swearing: Anyone else had their face ripped apart by this wilkinson crap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveCrisis Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 I use the Wilkinson Quattro with no complaints.I am toying with the idea of trying the Gillette Fusion.

imprinted Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 using the Gillette Fusion, I've got really sensitive skin and I can happily use it every 2 days instead of every 3/4 which is an improvementto be honest though - when are they gonna stop.

Plato the Greek Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Wilkinson Sword Razors are vastly inferior to Gillette in my experience.Shaving for me was a nightmare for years, but there are loads of good products around now. I recommend using Mach 3 Turbo (don't think Fusion is as big an improvement over this as the Turbo was over the original Mach 3) and disposables are a joke. Always soak your stubble for at least 3-4 mins with a face cloth and very hot water. In combination with any King of Shaves shaving oil as an undercoat, followed by Shaving Gel of some kind on top, this will give an exellent shave. Don't ever use huge amounts of alcohol-based aftershave, it is not a good idea. Instead use something with acetylsalicylic acid in it - this will stop almost all razor bumps or spots caused by shaving, but you must use moisturiser after applying it. Alternatively, grow a beard.

Scorge Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 can you imagine the blade design they'd create for cutting the grass though!?You could sleep safe in the knowledge that it would be TWENTY SEVEN TIMES MORE POWERFUL THAN ANY OTHER BLADE ON THE MARKET. Or something......I use Tesco disposable razors. I like to live dangerously (was going to say 'on the edge', but that's a shit gag even by my piss poor standards....).

imprinted Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 surely it would be 27 times more powerful than any other mower on the market? and glad to see you side stepped the poor pun! you're learning! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
