[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, let me say I am currently enrolled in a monthly razor club since I go through so many razors. I am a 42 year old bald male who is required to shave every day for work so I am always looking for the best shave. I have been using the same brand razors for the past 6 months so it was kind of exciting to be trying something new. I definitely could tell the difference after my first shave with this Gillette razor. My head and face definitely felt like they got a closer shave and my skin did not feel the usual after shave "burn". I've only had the razor for less than a week so I will have to write another review to see how long the blades last. For now, I am very impressed. Even though I did receive this product free from Gillette, it's really making me wonder whether I should switch from my monthly razor club to Gillette razors...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this item as a free sample for my candid review. The first thing I noticed is how the razor sits nicely in my hand. It's balanced well and easy to hang on to during my shave. The flexball technology went against everything I thought I knew about shaving. Initially I was used to altering the position of the razor and my grip to manage my facial curves so it took me a little while to realize that with just the right amount of pressure applied, the blade and shields pivot to get a close shave at every angle. Here's what I couldn't get used to: the blades felt thinner than any razor I've ever used. They felt flimsy against my coarse manly beard hairs and if I was shaving body hair it just didn't rinse out between the blades as well as some of my other razors with thicker blades. Interestingly, it was my wife who ended up loving this razor. She liked using it on her legs, underarms, and bikini area because the flexball allowed it to followed her curves without needing to reposition her grip and made for a faster shave with zero nicks due to the ProShield. Also, the thinner blades gave her a closer shave and had no trouble removing her finer hairs. For now, I'll probably stick with my Gillette Fusion Proglide.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using a straight razor for the past few years, but no more. This razor gives by far the most forgiving, smoothest shave I've ever experienced, especially when paired with the Fusion shave gel. I have super sensitive skin and often end up with razor burn blemishes all over my neck. But I felt like this razor, with the Fusion sensitive skin shave gel, cut down on that considerably.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i was using Mach 3 until I see these razor and I get in love with it but I never buy it because I was comfortable with mach3 and my skin is very sensitive so I didn't want to take the risk for try it but I just try it a few weeks and the results are amazing I try it with a little bit of bear and with a very long bear and it work perfectly

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tried Gillette Fusion ProShield Razor with Flexball Technology for the first time on Christmas Eve. First of all, I loved the Gillette Fusion Sensitive Skin Gel. Smelled great and really covered my face nicely. I actually got whipped peaks on my jawline which I've never gotten before with any other shaving cream! But the razor is the real star of the show. It literally glided across my face, giving me a nice, close shave. I really loved the way the Flexball helped move the razor head to mirror the contours of my face. No nicks. Perfect shave. I have been cutting corners lately and buying other company's blades. This sample helped remind me what I've been missing. I need to keep using this razor! Love it! What would I want to know before I get this product? I'd love to know how much the blades cost and how long they last. I know that these blades are more expensive than other products on the market, but if Gillette could give data showing that the blade lasts 2x as long as competitor blades, gives a 50% closer shave, and is preferred 3 to 1 to said competitor, this data would definitely help move me to buy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow, what a really great razor by Gillette. It conturs to your face with the flex ball,leaving behind a really great smooth soft shave. It's the best razor I have came across,and I will keep using it. Great job Gillette fusion prosheil with flex ball..5 stars. Keep up the great work!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I would like to start off this review by saying thank you to Gillette for sending me the best razor I have ever used. Flexball technology hugs every contour of your face and the proshield lubrication gave me the smoothest shave I have ever experienced with no nicks or cuts. If you are looking for the closest, smoothest shave around the fusion proshield razor should be in your medicine cabinet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife usually buys me razors from other companies, and I end up with nicks all over my face. With this razor, I found it glides so nicely, and with the ball it easily lets me go over my jawline without having to go over it several times. I absolutely love this razor!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] first of all I think that the idea of the ball that moves according to the curves of your neck is a great innovation that way you can reach every single hair in every zone and the razor leave your skin smooth and clean and the shaving cream that came it's actually really good to leave that freshness sensation in your skin that is awasome

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I received the Gillette Fusion Proshield Razor directly from Gillette, I was pleasantly surprised by the construction and sturdiness of the razor. I had often looked at the Gillette ProGlide razors and was impressed with the FlexBall technology and how it would move with the various contours of your face. I hesitated making the purchase as I strictly use razors to trim my neck and cheeks since I typically have a beard year round. Now that I have been using the Proshield razor for over a week now, I wonder what I was possibly thinking. I tend to grow course hair on my neck fairly quickly and can give myself some rather uncomfortable razor burn using a cheaper and substandard disposable razor. With the combination of the ProGlide Sensitive Gel, this razor smoothly "glided" over my neck and course hair. Whereas I use to nick myself with other razors, the Proshield didn't pull on the course hair or cut me. The precision trimmer on the edge also allowed me to get a cleaner look around the beard line. Since these blades provide lubrication before and after each stroke, I have not suffered any razor burn and have noticed that the initial blade I have been using has suffered very little degradation in the lubrication layer. As far as the main razor is concerned, it is made of, what looks like, a sturdy metal and is very attractive compared to other manual razors on the market. It has a good weight to it that is easy to handle and makes you confident in it's grip. The FlexBall moves to every contour and I expect that this razor will last for years. After using this razor and seeing the benefits with how it prevents irritation, I expect to make this a regular fixture in my household and look forward to using it for the foreseeable future.
