Anyone a member?
I saw the commercial, funny as heck, and researched them. Seems folks are very pleased with service.
You can get razors for $1, $6 or $9 per month.
I went with the four blade $6 one, four pack for month.
At those prices, I may shave daily again.

Ordered cream and wipes for a total of $18.
Can't go wrong with that.

I've seen the commercials.
Will you post a pic of the stuff when you get it, Carlos?
I use those 5 blade fusion power razor blades and they're crazy expensive. When I'm shaving my head I wear them out super fast. It's nuts.
I was perfectly happy with plastic Bic 10 cent razors for 30 years and now I can't afford to shave anymore.

I am a member. The blades are very good quality and you can't beat the price. They ship fast and you can cancel anytime. I use the $9 blades because I have to shave daily and my facial hair is coarse. They hold up wonderfully.

Good to hear.
I thought of going for the $9 one but since I use a four blade now, figured that would be a good comparison starting point for me.
Cool thing is you can swap around as you wish. May try the $9 one in a month or two.

Can't really beat the price. Most comparable blades are much higher.

There's nothing to convince me to shave daily, but their pricing is quite nice.

I moved to a safety razor in December. Works great for those who don't shave often. Blades feel sharper than the Gillette stuff... and they are cheap!

I'm a member too. Been using them for about 6 months now. I shave my head and face so I was worried about only getting 4 blades a month. But I've had no issues using one blade a week with no irritation at all. I use the $9 blades, the handle they send is heavy and feels good in my hand. Before I joined I emailed them about possibly needing more than 4 blades a month. They responded in less than 24 hours and were very helpful, you can skip a month if you're not using all your blades and you can add another pack with your next shipment if you need more.
I tried their shaving cream, Dr. Carvers Shave Butter, I didn't like it at first but I gave it a second chance. I think it took awhile for my skin to adjust to it, it's kinda pricey at $8, but for me, it's worth it.

I signed up about 2 weeks ago. I like em. I use the 6 blade, $9.

They had a mix up with my order so I have two handles for nothing. My wife will use it for her. So between the two of us, we spend 9 bucks a month of razors.

I figure I can change them out every 2 weeks.

Me and my future wife do the same thing.

Based on my current usage it would have cost me quite a bit more to join the club.

Also, Mantic (Mark, the owner of Sharpologist.com), did a review on the Dollar Shave Club. Read about it here:
http://sharpologist.com/2012/03/dollarshaveclub.html

Or see his list of 7 cartridge based alternatives for the Gillette Fusion, including Dollar Shave Club here: http://sharpologist.com/2013/11/prog...ernatives.html

I would suggest looking into a double edge safety razor. I buy blades by the 100 pack for about $10. Each blade lasts 4-7 shaves, but there are dozens of different brands and types of blades you can choose from.
