Cuts.....don't lose heart just because you lost a little blood.

• Hey all, how's this for shaving expertise? I did this last night whilst shaving in preparation for work. I did it with a HeadBlade Sport, the one with the matchbox wheels, and I had equipped it with an HB Triple. I think the problem that I have with the Sport model is that I get the razor moving too fast because there is not enough drag and THIS is the result. Not the first time for this. I think I'll stick with the Classic/Ghost. I wish I would have thought to take a picture when there was blood.
  
  There was a flap of skin that I had to manually remove from between the blades of my HB Triple cart in order to clean it! Yucky! Didn't taste as good as I thought it would, either.
  
  For people new to the sly life.....I have been scraping the skull for over 10 years. I still make the occasional big mistake like this one. So don't get discouraged by a few nicks and cuts. Just invest in a good electric for those times when a blade should not be your first choice in the battle against stuuble. My trusty Panasonic ES8243K will be in service tonight.

• That hurts even when I'm only looking at the picture.
  
  Happened to me when I switched from the HB triples to the doubles. Scalp/Off!
  Lesson learned: Always pay attention no matter how trained I'm feeling.

• no headblade no cuts......that's if you use citizen smooth shave cream, bald guyz shave gel or headslick.

• I was in my local Rite Aid to get their version of the Atra blades.  They were out, so I bought the HeadBlade brand triple refills.  The first time I used them, I also gouged a flap of skin on the side of my head.  That has now healed.  But the other day, I was driving my delivery truck at work.  So I was feeling my smooth dome...or so I thought.  I didn't realize it but I had cut the other side of my head above the ears.  It actually didn't hurt.  But I had a nice big scab that formed.  So I went to a convenience store and bought some Band Aids.  I am not sure I am going to keep going with the triples.  I did better with the doubles!

• you can go months with no cuts, then you get a little too confident and slice the noggin.  i find it always happens when I'm rushing and a slower shave is a safe shave.

• You are not the only one and it will happen again - - -we have all cut ourselves at one time or another  - -just be careful  - - -
  
  How many times have you cut your face while shaving?     same thing  - - - -But the dome is tender so be MORE careful - -
