Dollar Shave Club
 

Anyone a member?
I saw the commercial, funny as heck, and researched them. Seems folks are very pleased with service.
You can get razors for $1, $6 or $9 per month.
I went with the four blade $6 one, four pack for month.
At those prices, I may shave daily again.

Ordered cream and wipes for a total of $18.
Can't go wrong with that.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

I've seen the commercials.
Will you post a pic of the stuff when you get it, Carlos?
I use those 5 blade fusion power razor blades and they're crazy expensive. When I'm shaving my head I wear them out super fast. It's nuts.
I was perfectly happy with plastic Bic 10 cent razors for 30 years and now I can't afford to shave anymore.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

Yup.

I will post once I receive it.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

P.S.
Just noticed they have over 400,000 likes on Facebook.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

I am a member. The blades are very good quality and you can't beat the price. They ship fast and you can cancel anytime. I use the $9 blades because I have to shave daily and my facial hair is coarse. They hold up wonderfully.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

Good to hear.
I thought of going for the $9 one but since I use a four blade now, figured that would be a good comparison starting point for me.
Cool thing is you can swap around as you wish. May try the $9 one in a month or two.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

Can't really beat the price. Most comparable blades are much higher.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

There's nothing to convince me to shave daily, but their pricing is quite nice.

I moved to a safety razor in December. Works great for those who don't shave often. Blades feel sharper than the Gillette stuff... and they are cheap!

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

I'm a member too. Been using them for about 6 months now. I shave my head and face so I was worried about only getting 4 blades a month. But I've had no issues using one blade a week with no irritation at all. I use the $9 blades, the handle they send is heavy and feels good in my hand. Before I joined I emailed them about possibly needing more than 4 blades a month. They responded in less than 24 hours and were very helpful, you can skip a month if you're not using all your blades and you can add another pack with your next shipment if you need more.
I tried their shaving cream, Dr. Carvers Shave Butter, I didn't like it at first but I gave it a second chance. I think it took awhile for my skin to adjust to it, it's kinda pricey at $8, but for me, it's worth it.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

I am also a member. I am very pleased. Had it for over a year.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

I signed up about 2 weeks ago. I like em. I use the 6 blade, $9.

They had a mix up with my order so I have two handles for nothing. My wife will use it for her. So between the two of us, we spend 9 bucks a month of razors.

I figure I can change them out every 2 weeks.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

Me and my future wife do the same thing.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

Based on my current usage it would have cost me quite a bit more to join the club.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

Hairy back, huh? ;s

Also, Mantic (Mark, the owner of Sharpologist.com), did a review on the Dollar Shave Club. Read about it here:
http://sharpologist.com/2012/03/dollarshaveclub.html

Or see his list of 7 cartridge based alternatives for the Gillette Fusion, including Dollar Shave Club here: http://sharpologist.com/2013/11/prog...ernatives.html

I would suggest looking into a double edge safety razor. I buy blades by the 100 pack for about $10. Each blade lasts 4-7 shaves, but there are dozens of different brands and types of blades you can choose from.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

So far, loving it!
Now ordering for wife also and trying out the six blade ones for kicks and giggles.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

And now you know what the wipes are for ... :r

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

Yeah, no wonder my face was feeling so butt soft.:lr

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

In fact, was leaving a "crappy" taste.;s

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

I signed up for the $1 a month a year ago or so, seems to work fine for me.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

I signed up and then was told the same blades can be had cheaper. If you want to save a few bucks over DSC, you can get the exact same blades here for less: http://www.dorcousa.com/

They often have a 20% off code posted on twitter or what have you and shipping was free with signature required for delivery. I believe my order was placed on a Sunday night and at my door Wednesday.

In case you haven't tried the Shave Butter from DSC, I really like it after using it the past ~ 2 weeks.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

All I know is, there is a 4 blade razor at Big Lahts, and naturally it is made in china, and it comes BRAND NEW,
OUT OF THE BAG, absolutely incapable of shaving you without extreme hair-pulling and face scraping. If it wasn't
SO HILARIOUS I would be VERY upset about being out 2 bucks for a dozen razors. I can't even give them to
homeless guys. But once I burned that packaging into my brain, and the look of the razor so I don't make
that mistake twice, I am happy enough buying the better shite razors at the Lahts. But its nice to see that
you guys are liking the service at that place.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

Do their razor heads fit the DSC handle?

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

Garry it looks like they do. They are the maker for the DCS 6 blade razors, at least thats what I read somewhere before. I just like the convience of not having to remember to place an order every month or when I'm getting low. I'm lazy like that. :lr

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

I hear ya. To make it wild, I would have to buy the $22 package, with shipping at 4.99. Only saving me 2 dollars.

Like you said, that 2 dollars is spent on them just sending them to me.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

I signed up with DSC for the 6 blades. Handle and blades are exact same thing as the Pace 6. I figured it up and seems to me that buying 48 blades at once would save me almost $1/blade.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

My problem is I would change blades out sooner than needed. I am a bit.... religious/weird with having 'fresh' blades.

In theory, that would not save me money, only cause me to spend more.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

I just hit Dorco to try some stuff out. Even got razors for Weeze.
For what I pay for Fusion stuff, it's certainly worth a try.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

I really like the 6 blades...the ONLY beef is that the piece that connects the blade to the handle can break rendering it useless if you get a little rough with it. Just have to be more gentle with them in the future. .

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

Meg and I have been using these for over a year. No complaints.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

I just got my first package and I am very pleased. I got the four blade set and a tube of Shave Butter. I haven't tried the blades yet (I had a fresh Mach 3 left), but the Shave Butter is awesome.

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

Anyone try the wipes yet?

Re: Dollar Shave Club
 

Use Pampers, they're cheaper.
