Item Description
I purchased this razor a week and a half ago, and i am using this one only since then.
Having tried before the Quattro, i can say the Hydro is a big step up.
The design of the razor is great, and i think better looking than the Gillette ProGlide that will come out this summer.
The grip is good, this razor won't fall of your hand for sure.
The price is quite good, around 9$ for the razor plus 2 cartridges.
But the best point of that razor is the way it shaves, it's so easy to shave whit it a kid of 12 years old could use it.
The lubricating strips are a great improvement and they are far superior to any lubricating strip on the market right now, even those on the Fusion.
Im on my 9th shave whit the same cartridge and i can still feel some lubrication, something that will never happen whit any other razor available right now.
I would qualify the razor as a not too aggressive one,
it does take the same amount of pass to get BBS as whit a DE, i would even say , multi pass is necessary to get a BBS.
But even if you multi pass , there will be zero irritation at all whit the Hydro, even on the neck , a very sensitive area for me, and most of us.
In fact when i bought the razor i had a little problem of ingrown hairs on the neck and razor burn, but 3 days of shave whit the Hydro completly got rid of it.
There is also a trimmer on the 5 blades version of the Hydro, witch is a great thing for the sideburns and under the nose.
It's a flip to open trimmer, you just need to flip the top of the cartridge and it expose the trimmer.
On overall i highly recommend this razor to anyone,
specially those whit sensitive skin.
In fact if i was a dermatologist i would pray by it.
