Managin to shave the noggin without makin me look like an extra from the Hammer House of Horror!
The most difficult thing is gettin the bloody HeadBlade razors out the plastic holder to get em on the HeadBlade Sport. Managed to cut my thumb last night. :Xo! :Xo!
Any tips?
-
i just attach them to the headblade while they are still in the holder and they usually just pop right out.....
-
one fine day u should try a gilette fusion, very good results and less irritation. i love this thing.

I agree, at least try the Fusion and see what you think.

You might use the attached calipers, it's easy to grab the blades and remove them out of the tray. O0
Good luck!

Tried the fusion. Converted. No more HeadBlade for me O0

LOL. Cool man O0
Yeah, the Fusion is a great Razor. I had really a wow-effect after the first time i used it.

I love the fusion. Only downside is the price of the blades. It gives the best cut I've ever had. Used to use MachIII but now I'm a fusion convert! 8)

Fusion here too. I like the look of the HB, but the smooth shave, absolutely never cuts, performance by Fusion has my Dome. I wonder how they'll ever improve on it. When I win the lottery I'll use a fresh blade everyday. For now, one a week isn't too bad especially when I remember $30 a cut by the barber--and when you really think about it with the continuing loss of hair, he was earning more each time he did it. It was every four or five weeks, that's $360 a year--Fusion blades are MUCH cheaper.

You all are not giving the Headblade any credit here. All other blades are Satan. Just like with anything else, he can make anything look good until he has you in his grip. Just use caution, because its going to come and bite you all in the rear end. Im prayin for all you Non Headblade users...........

I've been using the Schick Extreme 3. Has anyone used these razors before? How do they compare to the Fusion? (Gillette makes the Fusion, right? I should use their products, as I AM a proper Bostonian in exile in North Idaho).

Good advice Ben32. I bought a headblade, used it twice and put it away.
Fusion rock! O0

If you stick with the HeadBlade, go slow and follow the instructions, you will be fine.
I have been using it since I started shaving in '07, and I haven't had a problem. You can try it with different blades to see which one will work best for you. It's a hell of a lot cheaper than using the fusion.
I will not pay for five blades, especially when the Mach III does the job just as well.
The HB gets you just as smooth, once you get it down and your blades dialed in.
Try it again, see how it goes.
Keep it smooth. O0
