How to use the HeadBlade
valldo:
The Headblade might not be for everyone, but I think it is a unique device worth trying and giving it a shot. You will have to shave for a few weeks as it needs a little practice. Soon you will work out a 'technique'
I can tell you what I do, it might not work for you, but it might help
Hot shower with exfoliant (I use the Headshed by HB)
Apply Shave Secret or Baby Oil on wet dome, massage
Apply Nivea Sensitive Shave Gel, sometimes Headslick
Shave with the S4 Headblade with Sensor Excel Blades
Relather if necessary
Rinse with cold water
Apply an Aloe Vera Gel or the juice out of the leaves I have at home
When I started using the Headblade I used the double blade at first, still have some of those but don't use them anymore. After, I used the triple blades, I felt they were much better, giving a closer shave
I than tried the Wilkinson, Atra, Personan blades, all ok but I ended up with the Sensor blades
So, you see it took some time to get my technique and weapons sorted

I Just got my new headblade sports with some gloss stuff , Tried it a but and no minor surgery but there again I only shaved 6 hours ago with my gillette fusion . I can see it is going to take a bit of perseverance

Agree with you, the HeadBlade sport, which I also use, does take a bit of perseverance.
You really don't need to apply any pressure. Though I tend too on the top of the head, which is bumpy. And keep the wheels flat to the side of the head and drive it along in long straight lines. Like mowing the lawn ! Once you get the hand of it, you can be quick. If I have time, I sometimes touch up with a traditional razor.
Been using the HeadBlade sport for over a month. I will stick with it. Had two tiny nicks.
Can also recommend applying the HeadShed beforehand which really makes a big difference.
