Have You Bought Your M3Power Yet?
Hello ShavingStuff readers! It's good to be back. Vacation was great - just the right amount of relaxation to gear up for fall. I want to thank everyone who wrote in while I was gone with tips and suggestions. I'll be getting to them very soon.
While I was traveling I figured I'd give my old Mach3 razor a try. I'd retired this little buddy once the M3Power came out, but after finding it in the bottom of my toiletries bag I decided it was time to go old-school and see if there's a big difference. Boy is there ever. Part of it may have had to do with the high degree of difficulty which comes from shaving in the communal bathroom of a 1950s army barracks since converted to a youth hostel, but I tend to think it was the razor. The Mach3 tugs against your face compared to the M3Power's vibrations which glide across your skin. The Mach3's shave is not as close, so you end up going over the same part of your face more times. And, you can use your Mach3 or Mach3 Turbo razors in the M3Power, so if you've stocked up (like I had) at Costco for school, no problem.
Pick one of these hybrid razors up and see for yourself. The battery lasts forever. I've had mine over a year now and haven't had to change it.

M3P's are good, but if you really want to go "old school" try a Merkur Progress adjustable safety razor. You have to pay a little more attention compared to the M3P but the shave is even better, and good safety razor blades are under $0.50 a piece...sometimes a lot less.
