Hey guys I have been meaning to put a review of all these different products I have been buying here lately. Lets start with all the Headblade products.
HeadSlick
I dont think the cost of this stuff it terrible at all. It lasts forever. You really do not need that much especially if you use a brush to whip it up. Not a steal but not bad.I think this stuff gives great shaves. It is super slick and doesnt dry out for me when I use a brush and properly lather it up. But sometimes I get tired of using Menthol cooling stuff.
8/10
Headshade
I bought some of this and its ok. Im really not into wearing sunblocks even though I prolly should. I am sure it effective at what it does. It smelled really nice. A little pricy. I can buy some drug store stuff that will do the trick.
6/10
HeadLube
I have both the Matte and the Glossy. I dont care for either of them. They make my head feel greasy and gooey. I cant stand wearing it. Based on Jdogs suggestion I use Clearasil wipes now during the day to clean my head. The last couple times I wore Headlube my head seemed to have more crud on it and the wipe was dirtier. I think it attraced unwanted dirt. Price is ok since a bottle will last forever. Not for me though.
5/10
Headblade
Ok I have a regular and a sport. I gave the Headblade a fighting chance and it just doesnt agree with me. I like the idea, I think it is cool as heck, but I cannot escape irritation when I use it. No matter what blade I use(I tried them all) i get burn and bumps. I wish I could use one though cuz they make shaving a whole lot easier! Price is not going to kill you either. Im going to still rate it on the higher side because I do like it and am sad my head doesnt like it.

HeadShed
Nothing special just girtty wash. I can get several tubes of St Ives or use Dove soap and a loofah for alot cheaper. It does nothing special for me.
5/10
HeadWash
Nice stuff, smells good, nice lather but I consider it a novelty product. I dont think it does a better job at cleansing than any other product. I really thought it was going to be sweet, but its not that special. I actually like to use either this Burt's Bees Cleanser my ex-wife uses or Clean And Clear deep pore oxygenating cleanser.
6/10
HeadWipes
I also really wanted to like these. After using BG wipes I wanted to try these. I like the fact that they are antimicrobial, and lightly scented. That part was all good. I liked that. But the wipe itself was not strong at all. It shreded on my head. My head wasnt that rough either, pretty smooth actually. I seemed thinner and not like the BG wipe material. Smell was good though!
6/10
These are all the HB products I have tried. I like the fact that we as bald guys have products marketed for us. I salute Headblade for doing it first! I like some of thier products and will continue to use some. More reviews to come on many other things...... O0

Thank you for your review, Nick!
I'm a HeadBlade user too (Headblade, Headslick, HeadShed, HeadLube and in summer HeadShade - HeadWash and -Wipes are not available here in Europe) - for me the products work well.
We don't have so many products for Headshaver here.

WHOA! I forgot one!!
ClearHead
Ok I stuggle with bumps and was really hoping this was going to work. No way! I gave ClearHead a fair review using nothing else with it. It did noting in the way of clearing my head or my face/neck. Not impressed. It smell wasnt bad and it absorbed quickly. Also it is pretty expensive for such a tiny bottle. I also got a kick out of the huge box it was packaged in. I wouldnt waste money on it guys. I have found a better way to control burn and bumps....more on that in a later thread
