And the same reason that one brand of blade on a HeadBlade is not going to work the same as a different one for different people. This also goes with the amount of shaving cream or gel. Then, when you start getting more advanced and can tell the difference, even when very small, in the closeness of a shave from one blade/gel/cream combo to another.
One of the reasons that I use a product for a week before giving it a review is because I like get an average of how the product works. For example, how long a person has been up before shaving can alter how good their shave is. So, if I shave with a product for the first time within 15 minutes of waking up and then the next time after being awake for an hour, I can get completely different shaves. To judge the product on one try would be unfair to the product. It also helps to really learn how to use a product before deciding if it's a good product or not.

Well said man. I agree totally with the waking up thing. I shaved the other day around 6pm in the evening and I think it was probably one of the best shaves I've gotten. I stayed pretty much stubble free for over 12 hours. That was using the Bald Guyz shave gel and my old Mach 3. This was the first time I shaved that late. Maybe that's one trick with my skin type. I need to shave a little later in the day?

Lance, I've found that my shaves are better if they're later in the day... today for example I didn't have classes or work so I didn't shave until 4pm due to doing homework and as with all the other times I've shaved in the afternoon, it's about as flawless a shave as I've had

I think it's dependent on the individual and what they feel comfortable with. I bought the HB Sport from Ebay and gave it a try. The front and the sides were amazing shaved beautifully. Around the back was a different story and I really didn't have time that day to try and get used to it. I take it out along with my Quattro and always end up using the Quattro because I know what I'm doing with it and the fact that it gives me a really close shave without any nicks or burns. One thing though the Head Slick really rocks and so little needs to be applied.
