What prompted you to go Sly? From your post it sounds like it was a simple decision for you, which is great.

I'm a HeadBlade fan and think you'll like it. Just take it slow and don't use any pressure initially. Great device.

What part of the world do you call home? (Consider updating your profile if you like.)

Again, welcome. Hope you'll participate regularly. This is a great community.

Post by: Hingatao on August 16, 2012, 01:52:32 PM: Welcome to the club, Tim. The HeadBlade sport is nifty little razor. I've been using one for about 3 weeks now and I love it. I have mixed emotions about their shave cream though. I get a nice close shave with it but I seem to nick myself more when I use it.

Post by: Beardman on August 17, 2012, 02:05:41 AM: you can shrink it down if you like, or else use a website like imageshack.us (http://imageshack.us) or imgur.com (http://imgur.com) I think I normally use the 320x size then copy paste the direct link, and use the picture frame/img tags so that we can see it without going to away from SBG

Good to hear you chose the HeadBlade as well. I always say it's the best tool for the job. Just take your time, follow the directions, go slow and you'll master it within a week. There are plenty of tips and help here in our many sections, with any choices you may decide to make.
Enjoy the new found freedom of a smooth dome! O0
