I was a skeptic, I'll Admit.
I don't know about you, but i'm one of those men who absolutely hates shaving. In fact, I regularly see it as a sadistic practice that often leaves me feeling as though I've been to battle. Some mornings I'm in a rush, and literally leave my house with dozens of little red pieces of toilet paper sticking to my neck. Even worse, considering I work in an office, is that fact that despite my dislike for shaving, is the fact that I MUST do it every single morning. This can sometimes mean shaving over already razorburned face, prolonging my agony until the weekend when I can finally let my beard grow.
Obviously there is an issue here, and I'm guessing many men feel similarly about the daily ritual we must all endure....but there is one thing thats almost worse than the shaving process itself....its the cost of razors.
Personally, I'm not the kind of guy who tends to believe everything he reads, or everything he sees. I will try something if I hear enough good things about it, which is what convinced me to try the Mach 3 Razor. I had high hopes for the thing, as it was made to seem the answer to every man's shaving woes. A closer, faster, safer shave! Woo Hoo. Much to my dismay, the thing cut me worse than if I had used my wife's single blade, rusted out pink razor she left in the tub the last time she shaved her legs (way too long ago). On top of the abomination of the Mach 3, there is its cost, which was honestly obscene. Shelling out 20 bucks just for a refill is not exactly what I call a bargain.
With all this in mind, when I saw the Infinity Razor advertised on TV, I was very doubtful. Already hating the current state of mens skincare and shaving methods today, I didn't exactly believe in a razor that never gets dull and provides a superior shave. In any case, my wife ordered the thing for me, knowing I'd appreciate the price, and the supposed fact that I'd never need another razor.
It has now been over two months since I began using the Infinity Razor, and I can honestly say that for the first time in my life, Shaving is no longer something I dread (for its cost, or discomfort). The Infinity Razor gives me a close shave without the tortuous pull of previous razors, and refuses to get dull. It even washes out quickly and easily, and will never, ever rust. This whole experence really got me thinking, though, what other great infomercial products have I missed out on due to my scepticism and cynicism?
