Good suggestion. Did the same thing, glad I did, got a nick or two but only because I needed to learn to handle it Took a little getting used to but can't get as close or stay close longer with any other blade.

remember to keep pressure on the back of the headblade.

THAT is the key. Whether it's the Sport model with the wheels or the Classic with the little plastic nub, you can't emphasize enough the importance of keeping pressure on the back of the Head Blade. After I went running today, I shaved the head and I could have set a record on how quickly I did it, all without cutting my head. I'm guessing I'm gaining confidence in my technique, but I can't imagine doing a more effective job with anything except a HeadBlade.

What kind of blade are you guys using? I like the idea of it, but the damn cartridges clog with hair so easily that I spend more time trying to clean the thing than shaving. Since I've graduated to using pieces of broken glass and old rusty razor blades. Now thats a closness you can feel, especially around the neck.

How often are you shaving? I don't seem to be getting any clogging at all, but I shave every day.

I use the triple blade. Sounds like your a sink shaver. This was discussed in another topic but can't remember where. Best advice: shave in the shower.

Another good point. Using the water from the shower head helps get the lather & stubble out from the HB razor much better than tapping it in the sink.

I am a sink shaver myself, and find that that is a pretty big problem as well, keeping the Blades from Clogging up. Since Switching to HeadSlick I have Noticed that it is easier to keep them clear. The fact is that I would kill to be able to shave in the shower, but I am one of those that Needs to Shave in front of a Mirror. Untill I get underway, and get a place of my own, I think I am just going to have to innovate a good way to keep the Blades clear.

I too use the HeadBlade and love it. I use the Alta blades and an old toothbrush to clean it out (yes, I'm a sink shaver). Water at full blast and one swipe from side to side with the brush and the razor looks and cuts like new. I must be behind the curve because it's taken me a week to to get the hang of it.
