    Default Mach 3 razor questions

    For those of you who use a Mach 3, have you tried the turbo version? Do you notice a difference? Is it worth the extra money? Also, how long do you use a blade before throwing it out? I usually use mine twice, but have a friend who uses it like 20 times before throwing it away. I wonder if I should try using them more times to save money.

    the turbo is not SO much better-I usually do my chest around twice-3 times before tossing the blade

    Yes-the Normal Mach 3 works better than the turbo; i've been using it for years-but I'm having a hard time finding anything except the turbo refills here in NC. Has anyone tried the new 4-blade one?

    Well my bf and myself actually like the turbo better! It's a tad more expensive but it feels a little better. My bf loves it on his face. He gets a shadow after like half a day! But he and I have less bumps. I realized though it wears out a little quicker too. I like to change them when the color starts to fade. As long as it still has the green strip of lotion stuff on it, then it good. (I'm in charge of changing the razor because my bf is notorious for using them 3 times and then changing them out. I'd say the blade works after 6 or 7 times max, depending on what kind of hair you have (thin or thick).

    I epilate. Much better, no need to do it again for another month!
    It may hurt, but at least you don't get nicks and have to keep buying new razors to shave every week.

    I don't notice any difference between the Mach 3 and the turbo. I wouldn't spend the extra $$

    Yeah! You can buy epilators in the shops (Braun and Philips do good ones).
    They look like electric shavers but the difference is that they pull the hair from the root. I know lots of people that hate them because they can hurt but lets face it - who ever got beauty without pain? You won't have to think about hairy body parts for at least a month after and most definitely not have to worry about shaving nicks from blades.

    Just an idea.

    One the news..they said that the 4 blade Mach is a waste of money. There are so many blades that instead of getting an even closer shave, you end up clogging your razor.

    Just bought a Mach3 yesterday(turbo).
    Man WHAT A BLOODY DIFFERENCE!!!

    Ive been using my crappy Panasonic wet/dry shaver (cost over $50 and shite for shaving down there. Doesnt even make it smooth either. Have to go over it with a razor still) and I cant BELIEVE this little thing shaves so close.
    Better still the AAA battery is so quiet I no longer have to let the world know when Im shaving!!

    I am SO imperssed. Was going to get the girly version but the guys one was saying what I wanted to hear. Girly version said something about exfoiliates you skin and all this crap your not interested in when your pits look like a gorrilla.
    Its lthe smoothest shave ever, no bums or burn, then pop on bikini zone and WOW!!!

    The turbo is just a different razor. I saw no difference between it and the regular Mach 3.

    I decided to give in to the gimicky girl version...Venus Vibrance (vibrating razor) and I really like it! Usually I had to go over my arm pits 2 or 3 times, but with this, just once. It feels like an electric razor.

    Yeah, what's up with the mach 3 thing, i use venus which is the girls version of mach 3. I think it works just as well (not sure if the price is the same) My sis just bought the venus vibrance, I gave it a whirl and noticed that it did seem smoother, but I still was stubbly mid day like I usually am. I think it just felt smoother cuz it was a brand new blade. I think the whole vibrating razor thing is nonsense. It's just another gimick to have ou buy the more expensive razors.
