Personna Tri-Flexxx
« on: April 18, 2008, 06:40:23 PM »
Just bought a 4 pack of these triples at Wally's for under a buck per cartridge about a week ago ($3.97 for the 4 pack). They are adaptable to my Sensor, which I use on the face. I also have Sensor adapters for the HeadBlade.
I found that these cartridges actually give me a closer shave on the face with about the same risk of blood loss as the Sensor doubles.
For headshaving, though, I found them not to be very forgiving. Cut myself more than with HeadBlade triples or Sensor twins. Also, the lube strip feels like it is actually causing drag which makes the blade stand up at kind of an unfortunate angle, hence, the blood loss. Believe it or not I am paying close attention to keeping excess pressure off the blade and on the middle and back finger.

Has anybody else tried the Personnas? If so what was your experience with them like and can you offer any suggestions. I love the price, half what they want for the 4 pack of HeadBlade triples.

I have used them in the past on my face and they were okay if there was not a whole lot of hair growth.  The blades seemed to pull longer hair out.  Rather than cut it.  I am not talking extremely long hair maybe 3 days growth.  For my own head I would not use them, but thats just me. :) The persona auto plus on the other hand are great with the headblade.  O0

I bought some a couple of weeks back because it looked like a decent razor for a cheap price.  All I can say is you get what you pay for with this one.  Didn't even make it through a whole shave before I decided to trash this one.

Hey hey hey now.....you are talking about the razors I use on my headblade.  I dont ever have any trouble with them.  I can make a 4 pack last me for about 3 weeks.  Thats no joke either...and thats shaving everyday. I really cant give you any pointers on them...because I use them on teh headblade and you just simply do not put any pressure on the blade.  I will give these blades a thumbs up.............but thats me.

I've got an unused 4-pack I'd send you, but I think the postage would be more than the blades are worth. :Xo!

Hey, buddy.  It's whatever floats your boat.  I really did try these because they looked good from the package, but when I tried shaving with them, it was like dragging sand paper over my scalp.  Just a few strokes and I grabbed a Mach III that was in my shaving drawer.  I tried it twice with the same results.  Must be my rough skin, I guess. :(
