I am seriously seriously not impressed by them
£6.11 for 4 razor heads - I've gone through two razor heads in two weeks and it feels like I'm shaving with a cheese grator
They don't last as long as the normal venus ones, the first one I used - I used it once and then it went all icky/gooey
I'm intent on returning back to the normal venus thingies

on a razor thread, I spent a fortune on some of those quattro razor blades and Im not that impressed with those. I got them for my bikini line and planned to use cheaper razors for legs and armpits, then the expensive ones for bikini, thinking it would be a closer shave. Theyre really not any better tbh, especially not for a fiver for 4 razors. Rip off.
You recommend the venus ones then do you? what makes them better? Do you really think its worth spending the extra money for a posh razor blade?

I use the venus ones. I like them better than others because I never get cuts/nicks with them like I used to with cheaper razors, plus the head moves which makes shaving around knees and ankles easier.

venus is usless. intuition is much better. one razor head has lasted me a month!

Just the normal venus ones.. not the venus divine ones
like it's already been said the bendy head type of thing, plus they seem to last longer (like a normal cheap razor blade would probably only do me 3 times i.e. both legs, bikini line and under arms)
cheap buying is twice buying - although obviously not the case of venus divine :mad: I'm weally annoyed about it

Glad I'm not the only one, then. I like them, but they're just too expensive given how long they (don't) last.

quattro is a bloke razor too.
I thought womens ones just had extra VAT added, but were otherwise the same.

Bloody hell, £6?! What's wrong with a Bic? They're cheap and they do the job well. Just make sure you exfoliate well first and use shaving gel.

I have the Wilkinsons Sword Lady Protector, and find it to be good-there are little tiny wires across the blades for anti-cutting.

I use Mach 3 and would never go back to womens razors. I don't fancy paying for something half as good, but twice the price just because its pink and sparkly.
I'vce noticed they last longer than ladies too. Strange. :/

I found the venus divine heads lasted about the same as the normal ones but are just a total rip off in price for that extra purple strip thing that wears away after a couple of shaves anyway.
I've used the blokeys razor to shave before and i think they are probably better/shaper because they don't have the cushiony bit around them.

What't the difference with regular venus and divine?

Yeah it you wanna die of blood loss. They cut my legs to shreds.
Venus/Venus Divine/Mach 3/Quattro, all the same thing. I use them and throw them away.
I tend to buy a pack of razorheads, use them all one by one, once, and then return to the one I used first and use them all over again, rather than keeping the same head on my razor for weeks.
