Shaving with a Safety Razor
waine:
Hi there PET. Thanks for the post and the links.
Guys, I was terrified of using a DE on my head. But after you take the first leap, and you go SLOWLY you may just discover that this is for you. I got the knack quickly. Time is a factor, yes I will admit. So having experimented, my deal is, "The amazing HeadBlade for my dome and the DE for the face."
PET:
Actually that headblade is much more unsafe than the classic DE. I threw my headblade out. Full DE use on my face & head.
The headblade was the only device EVER that I used that actually managed to take a big portion of my skin. A 1cm circle. 1cm = 0.39 inches. A pretty big portion.
I could actually SEE the skin in the blades. I can tell you that was not pretty.
Also from the razor costs, headblade was the same with Gillette. And that means very VERY expensive. 10 euro ... or ~13$ for a pack of 3? 1 blade lasts me around 4 shaves. So you do the math.
I did the math on classic razors. I use around 35 razors per year.
You can buy a pack of 100 for around 13$.
So....

I'm with Waine ... I use HB on my dome and DE on my face. I've never had a problem with the HB. I'd be nervous to us the DE on my head. But, I guess I'm contemplating trying it at some point in the future.

Ah, another anti-Headblader.....That's part of the fun of this forum, finding your yea's and your nay's on any given subject!
PET:
Well. I tested it. First I tought "WoW this is soooo coool. A device build especially for my head. Now everything will be ok".
But it was just another marketing sh*t :)
Totally happy now.
