As time has passed I have seen new Gillette products enter the market. All apparently better and offering smoother shaves than the Mach 3 with more and more features, some even have motors!
I have had mixed feelings.
The true consumer male in me has longed to buy every new piece of kit as it is released, taking advantage of it's improved benefits. Could my skin really become as smooth as a baby's bottom? Is that actually a good thing?
Of course my razor doesn't 'support' the clip on attachments of the newer Gillette razors so adopting would mean leaving my lovely razor behind so despite the urgings of Messrs. Beckham, Federer and Henry I have remained loyal to my Jagger and tell myself "How much better could these new fangled blades really be?"
Then. this morning on opening a new pack of Mach 3 Turbos an innocent looking individually wrapped razor blade popped out. It looked like something from a sci fi movie. It was a monster. 5 blades is it? Strips on the top, micro filter thingies on the bottom and lord knows what else..... "try the fusion blade" It said.
I think not...
Great great work Gillette. I've just been online and found out that Jagger does a Fusion compatible razor so now you get my upgraded custom and so does Jagger. Form and Function together - it's been a wonderful morning.
