After trying the original for the second time, I think Headblade needs to put a warning on it:"For especially coordinated men ONLY!"
In the "How to Headblade" Videos ive seen no one seems to go against the grain on the sides and back of there heads. Is that something you guys do as well, or do you go against the grain on your whole head?
I always start bottom to top right side, back, left side, then front to back right and left sides, and side to side on the back, then front to back on top, and then side to side from both sides on top. That's pretty much against and around the grain.

To go completely against the grain on my sides would be to go from the bottom to the top, but I still get smooth enough without doing that.
Yeah, this is what I was always wondering about too Tyler. That's the reason I have had the love/hate relation ship with my HB this whole time. It wasn't really the front, top, and back of the head giving me problems. I would hardly ever get nicked up there. It was the sides that were messing me up. Especially behind the ear, of course. But it's like I could never get the sides completely smooth unless I went up from the sideburn/ear line towards the crown of the head. But doing this with the HB, or any razor for that matter, always irritates the crap out of that area. So I've been trying like you said on here. Just front to back, back to front all around and it has made things less irritated on the sides. But they are not perfectly smooth if you know what I mean?

I know what you mean, but it's close enough for me because someone is rarely going to rub from your ear upwards and that's the only way it doesn't feel smooth.
