Title: this may be a dumb question but.............
Post by: Ghost1988 on September 29, 2008, 09:24:01 PM
anyone know if that green stuff called "LECTRIC SHAVE" works for your head too and not just your face which it was originally made for?

for those that dont know what it is, its a liquid that your put on your face before you shave and its soposed to soften your hair so you get a closer shave.

THere is never a dumb question.  I have never used it but why not give it a try.  You will know if it works or not...and then you can come back and give us the review.  So has anyone else tried it??

Does Lectric Shave have a fragrance to it?  Just make sure you don't end up smelling like "Grandpa". >:(

I've never seen anyone post up about it here.  It will probably work for your head also unless there is a specific warning not to use it on your head.

Hey Ghost!

Try the Kroger brand.  Same stuff and costs $2 less!  I use it on my head when I'm in a hurry and don't have time to use my HeadBlade.  O0

Only good questions on our site - feel free to ask away.  Have never tried it, but sounds like it could work well for a closer head shave.  Let us know if you try it and if you like the results.

so i tried that "LECTRIC SHAVE" stuff but i didnt like it. it was the equivalence of shaving your head with just hot water. it wasnt thick enough. i definately prefer shaving cream. whats this i hear about the headblade though? i know what it is but have never used it. whys it better than a razor blade? does it shave closer?

Ghost...maybe it is just meant to be used as a pre shave??

Lectric shave is just a pre shave, you put in on your head and it sets the hair up prior to shaving with your ELECTRIC razor....it is not a shaving cream nor gel so it's not suppose to be thick...

I use a headblade. Its much easier for me and I can get better angles from it. I prefer quick and smooth!
I find I shave much closer with it.  O0
