Yeah, it's me again to talk about how I've put my HeadBlade back on the shelf once more.  I think, in my opinion, I've come to find that it may depend on the shape of an individuals head whether or not the HB is going to work well for them.  Can anyone add to this?  What I mean is that most of the people I can see, going by avatars, have decently rounded shaped heads.  I know some may have a little bump or two in the back but for the most part they look nice and round on top and sides.  I have a few crevices on the top and sides of my dome.  Plus some sharp "juts" in the back.  This may be the reason that I keep nicking myself so bad with the HB.  What really amazed me was that I have been using the HB trips for the past week and that is what I nicked myself with twice.  I never thought I would have cut myself with the trips.  I was going pretty slow too and cut a nice gash in the top left side of my noggin.  Seeing as how I'm going to be back to work soon I think I'm just going to suck it up and dish out some dough for some extra Fusion cartridges.  I've been using that to shave my face.  I think I'm just going to start using it on the dome again as well.  2 birds with 1 stone.  Yeah, I will be spending a bit more money to stock up on blades since I'll be going through them faster but I just can't take the abuse from the HB anymore.  Not knocking it either.  Just saying it must just not be for me after all the tries I've given it.

I think it has to do with head shape and stubble texture.

HeadBlade Sport with Atra blades cut me up every time.

HeadBlade Sport with HB Trips does OK for me. I only get cut if I go too fast.

Judging from other posts, it's the other way around for other guys.

ain't never tried headblade...

but I ain't never had a problem with the FUSION.....I've only nicked myself maybe twice in almost 9 months of shavin'

I lather up the face and noggin and kill them two birds all the time, Lancemeister!!!

Yeah they're a bit pricey....but I can't imagine someone goin' into the poor house because of 'em.

I'm on a tight budget, but when I look at my expenses I ain't sayin', "Dayam, if I just cut out the FUSION cartridges we could afford that Hawaiian vacation....guess it's the backyard BBQ again"

Tried the HB a while back. Filed it in the trash can.
