Thanks guys for turning me on to Headblade and Head Slick. The first time I used it I had very minimal bumps. I realized, that I was still pushing down on the blades. So the second time I shaved, I just let the head blade glide on my head without pushing and it worked! ;D This is my shaving routine: wet head with hot water, apply head slick, shave, put on rubbing alcohol, get in shower and let cold cold water run on my scalp,(to close pores) apply a conditioner, lastly put on an after shave. If you are having trouble with bumps, then try this out. It worked for me.
Question: how often do you guys change out your blades
-
since I started showering prior to shaving, I have no bumps.
all the information I've ever read on shaving suggests that you shower first then shave.
do a google search on wetshaving and read about it, I've applied some of the suggestions in wetshaving the face to my headshaving routine and I have awesome results.
good luck!

I change my blades every Monday, so 7 days. I use the Sensor Excel blades.

I change my blades when they get dull, usually in 2 weeks. I also shave in the shower. Saves cleaning a mess.

Ditto... when they get dull (probably at least 2 weeks). I get the best results in the shower, and I use a shower saver, so no guilt.

I do get more shaves with the triples than the old doubles, like the others about two weeks. O0

I know this may sound strange and all..but I bought my headblade about 6 weeks ago. Well you know the blade that comes with it? I am still using it. I have not had to change it yet.. and it hasnt dulled or anything...and believe me I am the first to see a blade goes dull cause the slightest pull on my facial hairs..teh damn blade goes in the trash... You all may say there is no way...but i shave everyday and sometimes twice.. I will keep you all posted when it is time to finally lay it to rest. But 6 weeks..still going strong...liek a timex..takes a licking ..
