I think the good old double edge blade and razor are the best. They hit the sweet spot. Convenient, safe and top performance, all in one

DoubleEdge Razor forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I cringe at the thought of that man shaving with no creme.

Anybody shave with a safety razor? I do. Best way imo🤘

this was interesting to watch. i still use a straight razor and safety razor, surprisingly work quicker minus the irritation. some things technology seems to just makes worse..

I finally tried out the safety razor, it definitely gives great shave👍

I still use the tried and true safety razor and find I get the best shaves with it.

Nothing better than 1 blade

I shave with 50s/60s Gillette safety razors so the blades are cheap 😊

That’s a lot of stroking he says lol

Got a Razor Burn just watching this video! The DE Razor was the greatest shaving invention ever.

Got about 300 feather blades coming out for 15 cent each and you just can't beat the cost compared to 6 dollar cartridges.

Cartridge gimmickry has reached new heights of absurdity, and cost! Traditional old school double edge safety razors and blades remain the best, most efficient, most eco-friendly, most affordable way to shave. Pennies a blade. And the cost of cartridges are insane, with nothing to actually justify it.

DE Safety Razor, quality shave soap, shaving brush, Skin Bracer aftershave. Works to perfection every time. No irritation or ingrown hairs. DE blades are cheap as chips compared to cartridges.

Great little documentary, makes me curious how good a safety razor is as my father and grandfather had it as their only choice!

What about the clogged hair that gets stuck in between those cartridge razors. One DE blade and an adjustable razor is all you need.

As was said in the 70's, why do you need a flexible razor when you already have flexible hands - ?

Double edge razor are the way to go

Safety razors for the win

I am 16. And I use a DE Safety razor. I sometimes use an Electric double foil razor. And the only cartridge razor I use is a Gillete 2 blade razor. More blades = more irritation.

I'll keep my safety razors thank you

The cartridge/plastic razors aren’t “better”; they simply generate higher revenue. Double edge safety razors offer better performance for far less money.

Hilarious this video was Gillette. Gillette has actually taken shaving backwards. They don't even make the great DE razors they used to make anymore. Instead they use these terrible cheap but expensive cartridge razors to maximize their profits. Using a DE safety razor gives you the best shave with no clogging or razor burn. Get yourself a good shave soap, blade, and razor that's all it takes. Get yourself a Rockwell 6c and start wet shaving.

I cringed when I heard the guy say he uses those disposable cartridges for so long. The blades mounted in those plastic frames aren't particularly sharp to begin with. Compared to a DE blade, cartridge blades feel pre-blunted, as in blunt like a piece of broken glass.

DE razor 4 Life! 💈

And Gillette died in January 2019. Never again will I buy your products Gillette

I love using double edged razer, I use my dads, he passed to me before he passed and it is awesome, also use a straight razer, you don't need cream lol but it helps sometimes

Double Edge safety Razor all the time none of the cartridge stuff

I wish I would’ve switched to a safety razor years ago so much better than a cartridge razor.

Old is gold

Gillette is putting out marketing nonsense. Buy yourself a Merkur single blade safety razor and you will never need another razor handle. You'll be using disposable steel double edged razor blades which are around 15 cents each and will easily do 10 or more shaves. Stop the plastic use people. Save the oceans!

Where can I visit this Gillette museum. I still use a Trac 2 with occasional original Sensor.

I'd take my safety razor any day!

Nice video i use to use gillettes and braun electric shave and is not bad but is to expensive and i am went old school and never turning back and proud of it.

all a man needs is an old 100 year old double edge gilette razor, 1 blade is all you need

Really cool video. I do only use my single edge Damaskeene or 1914. They really shave much better than expensive carts but to each his own.

Why doesn't this video have captions?

good old Schick Hydro 5....

How about Dorko's 7-blade razor???!!!!

Good ol safety razor, 12 bucks for 100 blades... 100!!!!

I did not shave since 2005. I trim my facial hair with head hair machine. Since then, my money goes to durex...

just started using a straight razor, super close but it takes a bit more effort to not carve your face /:

1890: I really wish I could shave myself instead of going to the barber. 1903: Yay! Let's try this. 1971: Okay, I prefer only 1 blade. 1998: Oh, I'm nervous over having 3 blades. 2003: Oh my god, not another blade. 2006: Ow! This hurts so much! That's why I really miss having 1 blade.

“cutting edge technology“ I see what they did there

2006 is not when the SNL parody came out, it came out with the Mach 3 in 1998. There was no parody of the Fusion 5

I shave with straight razors and safety razors. Bought like 100 of each for maybe 5 or 10 dollars? So thats like, 200 of them and itll last me an insane amount of time. For maybe 20 dollars.

I prefer a safety razor but the fusion proglide is my second choice.

Anybody know? Who is really invented this Razer shaving method..

I am using gillette guard is the best and cheapest shave

When I'm in a hurry I use a cartridge razor, but almost always I use my DE razor (50's Gillette Superspeed). Cartridges are a scam nowadays. It's always some new gimmick (vibrating razors in the early 00's, now "flexball"....please...why did a SINGLE edge blade work for hundreds of years just fine?)

Store your razor cartridges is rubbing alcohol.

Now it's 2023, I'm using the all-new Gillette Labs razor with Exfoliating Bar……

I had a Bic disposable razor do a hacksaw number on my face brand new. Never again

The techmatic razor practically ended Gillette run in the era of “ we don’t know what we’re doing “. But, the best alternative is the Mach 3 turbo or for enjoyment- a safety razor from the archives of Gillette or a modern safety razor from Merkur, Edwin Jagger, Parker or the New Rockwell 6 s or 6 c.

I never got into the whole stubble beard thing, either shave or grow a winter beard, no in between for Me.

Not very accurate history

Old school it's a best!

You see a lot of unshaven faces now day´s, like it´s Fab thing....but I wonder if it isn´t due to the poor shaving material that is offered to the public. It was my father who taught me how too shave with his Gillette DE Razor, he did not mind my useing his untill I went in the military where we all got Army Issue Saving Kits, a Gillette Slim Twist - 5-pack DE razors - 1can shaving cream. With our first pay check we hit the PX for more razors and a Timex Watch if we didn´t already have one. The first time I tried one of those Multi-Blade Razors it was so much pain I felt I just come out of the Ft. Lewis Gas Chamber after being forced to do a BBS Shave inspected by my Drill Sergent. Shaving should be a pleasure not a torture ordeal!

Late millennial here: I'll save you some time. If you don't want to use a straight razor, get a double edge safety razor.

watching again now Dorco has 7+1 hmmm you mention 4 blade after Mach3 befor fusion 5 never seen the 4 bladed razor

“750 that’s a lot of stroking” 😏

I lost my sh*t with that comically large Gillette razor.

So this video raises an issue. There is a movement for shaving with a straight edge razor. Much of the motivation is because people shaved that way in the good old days. However if the reality is that people back then went to a barbershop to get their (straight edge) shave rather than shaving themselves then at least in part this shaving movement is based on a fantasy.

This showed nothing of the evolution...

An interesting advert for Gillette.

Increased number of blades compensate for lousy shaving technique

Straight razor all the way!

"you are both shaving with and against the grain" why does Gillette push this BS? I don't think there is one spot on my face like this. and even is the video, all the hairs were growing left to right on the screen (I think it was his cheek, so downward)

Clark has leather on his face instead of human skin, sorry... My face started hurting while I was watching him drag a dry 4-blade razor across his face, with no lubricant...

Gillette guard is the best

After proper safety razors Gillette went on to produce overpriced plastic crap.

I love how all the people here are middle aged men while me here as a teenage girl-

Lol. Only $50 for 5 cartridges lol

So that's what happened to Dr Taub when House rode off with Wilson. Stick to the DE razor. I've got an all-stainless Feather AS-D2 and it's a work of art. No silly plastic that will end up in a landfill or ocean! Go Trad or go home!

If its not broken don't fix it. Companies are beholden to their shareholders and I'm sure they did a financial analysis at some point and realized how much money they could make by "reinventing" the razor. I'm sure they spent millions in R&D to develop the current generation. Unfortunately capitalism has a caveat; create a solution but then create a new problem that didn't exist to create yet another unnecessary "solution."

I perfer the 5 blade razor. I mean there are so many ways to get a really closer shave.

Dollar shave club razors are the best value I've been able to find
