HeadBlade Sport for me. This razor is NOT a gimmick............ it's just not for the uncoordinated!  ;D ;)

I agree Mike, he may be heavy handed. Some guys just can't get the hang of it.
I use the Classic as well, and have never had a problem. This razor is far from a gimmick.

Definitely get yourself a HeadBlade guys. I recommend you take your time with it, so you can get used to how it works. Follow the instructions and you'll never have a problem.

Ive tried a bunch of razors, mach3, mach5, headblade(worst by a large margin), Shick extreme 3(good value, but i still got some irritation), and I think my favorite by far is the Gillete fusion proglide. Its a bit pricy but it gives me the closest smoothest most comfortable shave

After reading a number of posts here I ordered the Magnum M5 razor.  Used it this morning - I do like it likely more than the Gillette Proglide Power that I have been using.  Will stick with the new one now.

Very nice!  The lower cost of blades is a nice added benefit as well!

I just picked up a five blade refill cartridge pack at CVS, it's basically the same razor as the M5 but under a different name brand. I get home and I'm ready to shave the dome when I realize I don't have my M5 handle anymore. Dropped it on the tile floor in the bathroom, it broke and I never replaced it. I'll have to pick up another.

Isn't it great that they make SO many blades for us to try out?

My first shave was with my Fusion, which I have used for years on my face, **NEVER shave your head for the first time with a dull face blade** best advice I can give.

Two days later went out and got a Headblade to try out. Cut myself up but good, I'm sure it's a great blade, but I have Multiple Sclerosis and have certain fingers that are numb, and bad hand control, so it didn't work for me, (now I wish I could figure out what to do with a brand new bunch of blades and a twice used razor).

As my neighbor suggested the Schick Hydro 5 and I shaved with that tonight (first time shaving in a week after needing to give time for some cuts to heal) and WOW WOW WOW, closest shave I've EVER had, face or head or anything. It's GREAT. I will be using this from now on.

SO anyone in Phoenix need headblade razor or blades let me know.  I'm keeping the slick and lube.

I'm using a Gillette Fusion ProGlide. I actually think it may be better than my old Fusion, and not just marketing gimmick!

Before that, I was using a Fusion, obviously. No problems at all, except self-caused!

Go guys I'm newly bald and I use the gillette fusion that vibrates it works great and I use the fusion shaving gel aswell. Since I'm in the states for the summer(j1 visa I'm only 21 be nice haha) I'm going to try the headblade what's the best and cheapest place to get the products and what's good to clean and chrome the dome, regards David.

I've been using a Gillette Fusion. It's a great razor but the blades keep getting more expensive as a 4 pack is about $15 now @ Walmart. I purchased a Schick Hydro 5 & was surprised how close & smooth a shave it provided & a 4 pack of blades is $10. 
