CVS M3 Shaving System by WannaBePadre on 10 Feb, 2008 15:57

Someone mentioned this in another thread, but I wanted to add a thought or two.
CVS has a triple blade system called the M3. Outside of the green (vs. yellow) lubricating strip, these are the Headblade Triples.
Even better for me, there's a face shaving handle, so when I've used up the blade on shaving my head, I can recycle it for my face (i.e. my face is tougher than my scalp) for shaving.
This is a huge savings boon, because I now only need to buy one kind of blade for face and head. The blades cost $4.99 for 4 ($3.49 on sale online) whereas the Headblade triples cost $7.99 for 4.

Man that's SWEET!
HeadBlade's price for triple blades is outrageous! 
I just ordered 4 packs! -

A caveat -- I took two divots of skin out of my scalp using these cartridges in a HeadBlade.
Granted, I was not fully awake ... but I've never torn flesh this badly with HeadBlade's triples.
Maybe these are a slightly different angle? Or a different quality control? -

I think they might manufacture the blades a little different, but I've never cut my head that bad... remember to keep the pressure off the blade

I have just recently bought a pack of these and I am getting some excellent shaves when connected to the Headblade Sport.
