When I first started using Headblade, I didn't like it either. It took me a while to get used to it and now I wouldn't even think about using another razor on my head. Maybe you should try different blades. I mean, there are a few different blades and everyone has their own preference. I love the shave that I get from the Sensor Excel blades. BaldRob is a big fan of the Atra blades. Tyler likes the Personna Tri-Flexxx blades. The point is, everyone's head is different. I would give headblade another shot with some different type blades.What razor do you usually use to shave your head with?
Oil makes a huge difference Razor. I didn't think it would make a difference, but I love it. So nice and smooth......it's great!

I will say, though, that the Headblade did a great job right at the -- how should I say this -- the top of the sides of my head. Does that make sense? Where the top of the MPB fringe would be. I can never get that part smooth with the Mach III but the Headblade did the job very well.

Not for the Headblade Trips, but you'll have to use the Sensor adapter for the Sensor 3 and Tri-Flexxx blades. You can e-mail Mac at headblade and he'll send you some adapters for free if you ask for them. One should've came with your headblade though, it's the black one.

When I use oil, I always use a little bit of HeadShed after to get rid of any leftover oil.

I'm going to try and stick with the HB for a week or two -- if I can -- and see if I can get used to it.

Biggest thing to remember when using oil is to keep your head wet... either dunk your head under the shower or just throw some water on the area you are about to shave.
