I got myself a headblade along with some headslick a few days ago and have been very surprised. I haven't nicked myself yet which i was expecting the first time out, and although i've only used it three times so far, i have much less irritation and my head seems smoother.

Glad it's working for you. I love my Headblade, I wouldn't enjoy shaving near as much without it.

It's a good tool. Only nicked myself once so far and that was because I was going to fast and lifted the back

Not smart!! I made note to self not to that again.

I've nicked myself twice with mine in 2.5 years...and I probably deserved it!

I have the epitomy of a love hate relationship with the Headblade. I love the shave I get with it but if I do get a cut/slice its very unforgiving. I mention slice due to the fact everytime I have resulted in bleeding from using the headblade its like a nice piece of meat going threw the slicer...shazam!!!

But in all I'm satisfied with my HB classic and the assortment of blades you can use on it. If you've learned anything when using a blade to your head ( especially the Headblade ) is
slow is
fast !

Don't want to sound like a salesman, but I'd reccomend upgrading to an HB sport. I've found that the wheels on the back help the blade glide over the head smoother, and I can keep more pressure on the back than with the classic.

I hate that wheel

and to be honest I dont get any better of a shave with the HBsport than I do with the classic, the classic is at a more aggresive degree of angle when its on the head....I think
Your not sounding like a salesman.

I agree ShadowSide. My first HeadBlade was the "Sport" model. After cutting my self once by the ears I learned that I should use a mach III to clean up around the ears. A few months of being Sly I decided to buy the HeadBlade "Ghost" model (basically a clear version of the classic). Since receiving the "ghost", it's all I've used to shave the dome. I too feel that I get a bit of a better shave over the "sport" model. The thing I like the most about it, though, is the fact I can shave around the ears without any issues of cuting myself!
HeadBlade fan here!

deadohsky, don't knock it. Some people just can't adjust to the HB - sounds like you're one of the fortunate ones. I couldn't live without mine. I have the Headblade S4 (stainless steel) that they don't make any more. Just remember, don't rush the HB. It saves enough time anyway over conventional shaving IMO, no need to hurry and have an accident.
