A long time ago, Gillette sent me some razors and a shaving handle for what I assume was a new line called Fusion. They've made boatloads of money from me off of that small investment, but the plastic grip on the handle is falling off and I'm running out of razors. I'll need to buy a new handle.

What do you all suggest? Should I stay with Fusion, or are there better products out there? For reference, I don't typically grow out my beard (and can't grow a proper mustache), and I have a mole that gets cut easily if I don't take precautions (wet skin, heat blade).

I normally keep a fairly full beard, but I use a Van Der Hagen single blade razor to keep my neck clean. I'm not sure how well it works on a lot of hair, but if you don't grow out your beard I bet it would work great. Very inexpensive as well. I think the handle costs like $13 and the blades are like $3 per pack or something.

I've had a lot of success with Harry's razors. I shave my head (as well as my face) and they are definitely the best I've used over the years for that purpose. I've nicked an annoying mole on my neck an order of magnitude less often with Harry's than anything else I've tried.

You can get them at Target and I've seen them in Costco quite a bit lately. They usually run a sale at Costco 1-2 times a year. Definitely A LOT cheaper than the Gillette option.
