The Lefty & Righty Beauty Brains don’t like writing product reviews themselves which is why you won’t find many
here. They think reviews from them might compromise their scientific objectivity or something. That’s lucky for me though because I get to try all the products they pass up! It’s also lucky for you if you’re a Beauty Brains forum members because they can get free products too. (Do you need a better reason to join our forum?)
Anywhoo, I was lucky enough to get the Schick® Quattro for Women® just when my trusty old Venus was due for a replacement.
Initial Reactions
You know my immediately observation about the razor?…it’s pink! I love all things pink. They make me happy. I also liked how it looked and feels like a high quality product. You know how sometimes your razors feel all flimsy? This one is just the opposite. The only thing I did not like was getting it out of that stupid plastic package. Why do they make these things so hard to open? Damn those clam shells.
Using the Schick
First time I tried the Schick I liked it. It’s nice to hold and feels soft and smooth on my skin. It just felt like a high quality product. It’s great that you don’t have to press hard on the skin. It glides along, easily getting rid of three-day old growth. (What can I say, I haven’t been wearing skirt much lately.) Another thing I liked was that I didn’t get any nicks or cuts. Do I have to tell you how critical that is??
I’ve been using the razor for about 2-3 weeks now and it still does a decent job. It definitely is not as good as in the beginning but that’s expected. For some reason all the razors I use that have those moisture strips seem to get duller faster. In this way it’s not much different than similar razors I’ve used. If you use a shaving gel I doubt the moisture strip really helps anyway.
Sarah’s Surmise
Overall, I liked this Schick® Quattro razor and will definitely continue to use it. It’s better than my Venus and pink makes me happy whenever I look at it. The only thing that could make me happier is not having to shave at all! If you need to try a new razor (and who doesn’t at some point?) I think you should consider this one.

I loved this the first four times I used it too, until I found out four blades was too aggressive on my sensitive skin. After six months of fighting a resistant staph infection in my leg I decided to follow my docs advice and not use that razor.
It does give a wonderfully close shave though.

I have cerebral palsy and it takes me hours to open the package.
It’s not worth it.
Hairy legs are ok
