![]() One feature he really loved was the trimmer which is revealed by flipping the gel reservoir back to reveal all five blades so you can get a great trim easily and conveniently. The reservoirs seem to hold quite a bit of gel and should last for many shaves. The gel in the reservoir reduces friction that tends to cause redness and irritation and is activated by water to hydrate the skin throughout each shave. The Schick Hydro® 5 disposable also includes the unique, new and improved, Hydrating Gel Reservoir which hydrates throughout each shave. This also means less irritation as you don’t have to go over the same area 2-3 times and you don’t have to press down on your face with the razor. Honestly 5 razors just sounds a bit gimmicky though right? I mean back in the day we were all using razors with 1 blade, so why 5? Well it turns out that 5 razors do help you get a closer shave because of the way the blades work together to get at the hair just below the surface of the skin resulting in a closer shave than what you could get with 1, 2 or even 3 blades. There is also a guardbar which helps to stretch out the skin for a close shave without having to do the things that cause irritation in the first place like pressing down too hard while shaving. The Schick Hydro® 5 disposable razor features 5 “Ultra Glide” blades with Skin Guards which work to reduce friction between the skin and the razors cartridge resulting in less irritation. It also has a tilting head rather than a fixed head which means it is able to follow the contours of your face. The handle is contoured and features rubber grips which kept the razor from getting slippery once he started shaving and gave him better over-all control. The design of the Schick Hydro® 5 disposable razor is far more lightweight than the razors with replaceable heads but it remains quite functional and feels good in your hand. I think we can all relate to the desire to shave less often and to be able to do so without all the irritation and cuts. ![]() I think many people do equate disposable razors with a poor quality shave and we were interested in seeing if that would be the case here too. ![]() He was convinced that since it was a disposable razor that he would basically see the usual irritation plus cut up his face at the same time. When he does shave he normally uses an electric razor and I have never seen him use a disposable razor. Schick recently sent him a package of Schick Hydro® 5 disposable razors to check out and despite more than a little trepidation on his part, he agreed to give it a try. He won’t commit to a beard but he also doesn’t shave very often as he generally finds that his skin gets irritated, red and bumpy after shaving himself.
