At last, the long-awaited and much searched-for-on-Google M3 Power Razor head-shaving review! Here it is: Wow. Buy this razor if you're a bald guy like me. Don't know what else to say about it.

I agree completely. Best shave I've ever had. Well worth the cash.
Hey, Do you guys know a good place to buy the M3 Power blades? So far the best place I've found is at http://www.dashingman.com. I've been searching for a while cause they are expensive. But these guys have free shipping, so maybe I'll give it a shot. I have the razor and like it alot too!
I bought 100 blades on ebay ... so I won't have to buy any more for quite some time! It was a pretty good deal ...
Carol Says: As of July 9th 04 - Costco has them for $18.89 LESS(in store coupon flyer) $6.00 for a net of $12.89 and no shipping, you walk it home!
Also, I tried it sort of dry under my arms, WONDERFUL, not grabby, oh so smooth, this is a keeper. Go buy one, you won't be disappointed, or you can bring it back to Costco!
I think this thing is a gimmick. It vibrates and gives you a more comfortable shave, yes. But it doesn't get as close as the old mach 3 unless you go over the same area a bunch of times. I think it's just a marketing ploy.
Yeah I'd have to say its a bit of a gimmick. The vibration gives a great sensation to your face, but to get a close shave you have to go over the same area a few times. This is directly the opposite of what Gillette say. They contend that because the vibration makes the hair stand up, you get a close shave in ONE pass, therby reducin wear n tear on your face. The problem I have is this. How does a small vibration make hair, stuck with shaving foam stand up in the first place. The fact is, multiple strokes are still required for a close shave, the vibration aspect is novel at best. Bottom line, Im getting nothing extra for the pricey blades!!
Still not as quick or as close as my 13,000rpm Linear Drive Panasonic shaver, and with the handle and blades costing so much, I question its value too.
I woke up today and remembered I had dream. My dream was strange... In my vision I was told by an Oracle to visit a website I'd never heard of, headshaver.org. The Oracle said that I would learn how to perfectly shave my bountiful locks from my noggin which would expose my bald crown. In the dream I requested of the Oracle “Why must I scrape the pelt from the head of my human brain tomb?” To which the Oracle came back and said “The vault of homo-erectus’ intelligence is a cranium which is thick enough to withstand the forces of the latest three bladed shaving device. This shaving lesson in which I am sending you is an experiment to determine the long range consequences of shearing your skull mane. On our planet we discovered that the older natives who maintained a hairless upper region had poorer thinking ability as they grew more mature. Those that were fortunate enough to have kept their tresses kept their aptitude. The thickness of the average human’s cranium is comparable to mine so we have implanted a device into your brain in much the same manner as we have been doing over the past fifty years with others of your species. You see, we abduct by night, placing subjects into our space capsule and then we invade your posterior region with a very long probe-type-implement. This probe-type-implement tags along through your innards and jettisons a silicon device into your brain from a launching point near your gullet. Most creatures remember nothing, but some remember abduction.” To which I responded “So, you mean every person who is referred to as hairless or bald, as skin head, or cue-ball, etc., has been abducted and is an unwitting member of an intergalactic social science experiment?” The Oracle said “BINGO!”
Then once my brain crypt was sufficiently scraped I was instructed by the Oracle to peer upon my visage while standing backward against a bathroom vanity with a handheld mirror. There I was to see a message scrawled onto my hairless top that would instruct me for my life. I did that which I was required and read the scrolling message which said “Shave your head daily and you may delight in much recompense including but not limited to more gladness with the experience of the opposite gender’s reproductive organ, a belief that your follicles are not blunted by chromosomal defect but that your exposed cranial shine is your choice, to which no one will believe but you, etcetera. Sincerely, The Gillette Corporation (aka Alien Abductors).”
I’ve been hairless for years and it's by choice.
Hey thanks for the info.
It's always good to see what's out there and what really works. There are many shaving products out there these days.
I guess you buy the shaver that you feel comfortable with.
