I think it just all depends on what your head can tolerate. I can get by for weeks using a Personna (generic Atra) on my Headblade, and I have quite a bit of hair on the sides and back. I consider myself lucky. Half the fun of shaving is discovering what works.
In an attempt to nurture my cheapskate side, I went out and bought a bag of disposable razors at Walmart for $6. Let's just say I went through a lot of band aids trying to clean that mess up after one shave. Seems to me that unless I'm using a triple blade my head is just aching to be nicked. So now it's back to the HB triple blades... my cheapskate side wants to find a compromise though. Can you adapt to a 'rougher' blade, such as the HB double? That would save twice the cost. And yes, head shaving is overall going to cost the same amount as going to a barber, and yes not nicking yourself is most important to looking good, but has anybody got any feedback on 'adapting' to a lesser blade?
I guess the sensor excel is the double version of the HB that fits, does any triple blade (that you can buy at a drug store) fit on as well??
