When online shave clubs became mainstream, I was all for it. Not much can beat the convenience of razors delivered right to your door. But after trying a few razor delivery companies, it was surprisingly difficult to find a razor that worked well. I had long used Gillette as my go-to razor brand, so when I found out they were offering their own home delivery service, I knew I had to try it.
What immediately set Gillette On Demand apart from other shave clubs is their unique way of letting you get your razors commitment free. You can do a one-time order and then reorder as needed via text, without needing to tinker with your subscription to figure out how often you might need refills. However, if you go through blades regularly then you can easily opt for a convenient subscription that will send you refills based on your schedule. Ultimately, text-to-reorder is perfect for me because I could order whenever I needed razors instead of having blades pile up.
I decided to go with the Fusion ProShield because I’ve used it in the past, and I know it provides a high-quality shave and has a nice feel in my hand. I often have trouble getting around the tricky areas like my chin and neck, and the Fusion ProShield has the pivoting FlexBall Technology to get the job done right. After picking my razor, and opting for the text-to-reorder feature, I just had to finishing signing up. I loved how quick and easy the process was.
When the box came, I was really pleased that it had everything I needed. The razor came with three extra cartridges and a fourth cartridge on the razor itself. I took a shower beforehand to soften up my skin, which usually makes for a better shave. The razor had a great grip and it moved across my face with ease. It easily cut through all my toughest hairs, and the head pivoted with very little effort. With the Fusion ProShield, I was even able to get to those hard-to-reach areas. It was remarkably quick and easy, and left me feeling clean and comfortable. I came away with a really close shave, and my skin was smooth and soft. Plus, the head rinsed really easily and didn’t get hairs stuck in the blades. It was simply a great razor that gave me the shave I needed.
Even though I opted for the text to reorder feature,
