Title: Howdy All
Post by: Stormin Norm on May 01, 2010, 11:17:32 AM
Glad that I found this place.  Great info and site.

I'm from Edmonton in Canada.  Once had hair then started to loose it then decided a few years ago to keep it very short via an electric razor.  Was in Mexico and had my head shaved by a straight razor for the first time.  Scaaaaaaaaaaaaaaary but liked the outcome.  Got p.o'ed with the electric razor and did an internet search.  Found the Headblade site and got one.  Have a few questions on this.

Anyway, glad to be on board.

Welcome to the Forum Norm! The HB is the tool of choice for many of us. A great tool but take it easy at first until you've mastered it.

Welcome to SBG's forum Norm, good to have you join us.

Great choice in your decision to take it all off, and in opting for the HeadBlade, it's the best tool for the job.      O0
 
Sounds like you've got it down, but remember to take it slow, no pressure on the blade end, just let it do what it's supposed to do.   

Enjoy the forum.

Welcome Norman.

I'm a HeadBlader too. HB has a learning curve, but gives you the best shave ever.

Keep it smooth  O0

We keep telling fencers and lurkers that, I mean we're all not hallucinating the attention from the fair sex, really.  Enjoy it--but I obviously didn't have to tell you that. LOL

One thing is for sure, you're never going to see a woman fawning over a comb-over.

I used the electric Remington curved close shave "razor" for quite some time.  It took at least 20 minutes or more to get the desired effect.  Had to recharge it and had to do it at least two times a week. I wanted a better solution.  I liked the result of the head shave in Mexico which led to me using just a regular shaving razor.  Then I got a Headblade-vroom , vroom -done.

I'm damn happy as I went to Shoppers Drug Mart and got the Life blades which fit the yellow adapter. O0  thanks to the fella who recommended them!

It is 100% true, women really do like men with shaved heads. O0  Its hard to explain but I have noticed a big difference from them. O0

One thing about getting your head shaved by a straight razor though, I would not recommend eating beans that am before getting shaved. ;D

Always wanted someone else to shave my head, but afraid they will nick me, especially with a straight razor.   ^-^
