A little over a hundred years ago, an American inventor patented his invention - the blade. It seems there is nothing interesting, a common thing, but ... This small piece of steel revolutionized not only shaving, but also the economy as a whole.
The inventor was King Camp Gillette. He needed to create something that cannot be dispensed with in everyday life. This is what became the blade for the reusable machine, invented by him. The cost of a piece of superthin steel with pointed ends was low, and shaving was quite easy and comfortable. When the blade fell into disrepair, it was simply thrown away and replaced with a new one.
Here is such a pattern that creates a constant need for customers. This marketing move laid the foundation for the production of disposable tableware, paper handkerchiefs and much more.
The company that King Camp Gillette founded to this day is one of those who put in the first place a non-standard, innovative approach. Some marketers call this corporation devouring itself, since everything that it produces now did not exist a couple of years ago, and after a while it will become irrelevant and will not be released either. It is this view of things that allows the company to occupy top positions in the arena of the global economy.
The assortment of the company includes everything that is necessary
for shaving: machines and blades for them, means for shaving and after it.
The Gillette razor has become the most recognizable brand, enjoying success not only among men but also among women.
Gillette Fusion ProGlide machines, which replaced the no less successful Fusion series, were the last innovative product to expand the line.
The main difference between all the machines of the company from each other is the fastening and the number of blades on removable cartridges. Gillette Fusion ProGlide boasts five super-thin strips of steel (according to the manufacturer, thinner than a human hair), which have a special coating to facilitate gliding.
Gillette Fusion ProGlide replaced the machines of the previous generation of the same model. The main differences affected mainly removable cartridges. The machine itself has become a little more elegant and has replaced plastic with soft rubber, which naturally affects the comfort of the grip.
Replaceable cartridges of the new system received from the inventors channels into which excess foam and gel get into. Gillette Fusion ProGlide differs from its predecessor in the presence of plastic microcrests that align hair before shaving. Shaving is facilitated by the presence on the back of the sixth blade - a trimmer (shaving sideburns and a mustache).
Gillette Fusion ProGlide machines in three variations are on sale. A conventional machine (with innovative ideas introduced), Styler (complemented by a trimmer developed by Braun engineers) and Power (a vibrating head that makes blade sliding easier).
In general (according to consumers), the new system deserves respect, since all the innovations announced by the manufacturer really make shaving easier. The slide became much softer, and the sharpness of the blades remains at the level, even after the indicators on the machine cassette indicate that it is time to change the blades. Have a good shave.
