Got my haircut yesterday, and the barber shop I go to started carrying Truefitt & Hill products. I was impressed and got a whole story about how great they are and all of that. My barber was surprised that I seemed to know so much. I convinced him that brush stands were unnessery because of how the badger hair holds the water in place if you set it on its handle after he tried to sell me one.
Then he told me that the Gillette Fusion was the greatest razor ever and that he gives all his barber shop shaves with the fusion. He tried to convince me that it is worth the $26 for 8 cartridges cost. I tried telling him that a DE was much better IMO and much cheaper since I've used both and the fusion irritated the hell out of my neck. He also said he usually does 4 or 5 passes with the fusion. This guy must have the toughest skin known to man.
Anyways, I am wondering if all barber shops outside of the Truefitt&Hill, AOS ones give shaves with the Fusion? I can't imagine wanting to pay for that. What is the point?
