Give the DE a try, at least on the face. They give the closest shave ever after a little practice. Plus the blades are very cheap!

I've since used my DE on my face a couple times. Got a really good shave with it today, seems very close. Patience and taking the extra time are the only drawbacks. I honestly can't tell that the Fusion gets any closer than what I got today but it is quicker and you can be more careless. -

It does take more time and patience to use a DE. Stick with it and the shaves you get will be better and better. What type of blade are you using? Some blades are sharper than others.
I know a guy who only uses a DE on his head and face. This peaked my curiosity as to weather or not I could shave my head like that. My last 6 shaves to my head have been with a Gillette Adjustable and a Feather blade. I have gotten some really close shaves with it. It does take a lot longer but I like the weight of the handle and the blades are dirt cheap. Will I be replacing the Fusion? Not anytime soon, I just like knowing I have other options available. -

I imagine I've got the cheapest, lowest quality blades available. They're just an off brand I bought at the dollar store. I really do think it does a better job along the jaw line.

This morning I shaved the first time with the Fusion.
It was a pretty good shave ... very smooth ... no bumps ... all fine!
I liked it.

About at the beginning of the month I got my sport with the trip blade and I love em. My only concern about them is they are only avail thru headblade. Which can lead to high prices and difficulty buying them. Like when I got this order, for some reason I was unable to go to the complete order page on the headblade website... had to order over the phone...

I started with the Mach III Turbo, with which I was satisfied. In the last two days switched to The Fusion, which seems superior: even closer shave, no nicks, significantly less burn. Use it with a good lather of Aveeno Therapeutic gel. Dome has never been shinier or happier. Kepp sly, Professor Melon

I use the headblade sport... I have done the electric razor thing and it does work pretty good. The original headblade razor was okay, I cut myself alot with it, but the headblade sport works like a champ.

Welcome Bull! I just did the switch from the classic to the sport and I'm loving the sport. The classic gave me just a slight case of razor burn too, when I shaved too frequently. No problems with the sport.. But i also integrated headshed to my routine.

Hey Guys, hope all is well. I am another one that uses the Gillette Fusion Manual with headlube. I used to use the headblade but was nicking myself quite frequently.
Take Care
