Vegematic?!?! Noooooo!!!

For me it was finding the right blades that worked on my scalp.

I disagree.  Personally I love the headblade and I'm sure (like anything else) it won't work for everyone, but it is an excellent product.  I don't think comparing it to extinct info-mercial items is a fair comparision...

AGREED!!!

Same here , John, you're way off base comparing it to that old scam.
The Headblade is a great piece of equipment that gets the job done as intended.
As most guys who use it have said, they may have to experiment with blade combo's, due to the fact that each head will have different shapes, bumps and juts. What works for one may not work the same for another, we all know that.
Like the way X and Padre can't use the Atra doubles, I find them to work best for me.
I've been using the HB triples all week, and I don't find them as easy to use as some, but that's how they effect my shave. For me the Atra's, Sensor's and the HB doubles work best. Headblade will take some time to get used to, and if you have patience, once you get it down it really works great.

Padre, you simplified it perfectly:

Vegematic?!?! Noooooo!!!

That's really all it's about.

I'm not knocking it like I have said many times.  But I have finally come to the conclusion that the HB just isn't for me.  I think it does have to do with certain shapes of the head and hair thickness.  For some it may glide nice and smooth.  For me it just always seems to be pulling at my hairs and catching.  Almost dragging a bit.  Then not to mention the nicks.  I shave in the shower, use plenty of shave gel, the whole nine.  I think as Paul mentioned I'm just going to get it over with so I don't have to bore you all with my horror stories any more.  Now where's that little coffin.  >:D

Maybe Tim can help you with that, he likes to hang around and chat with the deceased.

even though i've never tried it; the Headblade , as a 'gadget'  seems to be of the same ilk as the 'Vegematic' of many decades ago .   That was a cheap gadget that claimed to cut veggies at record speed anyway you wanted them.  Ever seen a Vegematic?   Exactly ... they are extinct--;cause they didn't work.  ((there was a parody of a similar gadget on SNL ; again , many years ago.   Instead of getting perfect french fries; the user lost a finger or two) ...    But anyway; the Headblade as this cute little rolling gadget that effortlessly slides across the head giving perfect shaves just sounds too good to be true.  I've heard many stories about servere gashes.  Yet some of you guys seem to love it; so ... I don't know.   For me ; from my very first shave the Fusion has been perfect.  I have virtually NEVER broken skin;  and the blades last a long time for me; nearly a month; shaving 4 - five times a week.   So Lance; ditch the headblade and embrace Fussion !

X, Well said, I Totally agree.

The Headblade is a wonderful product. When used correctly and with good blades it gives an effortless problem free shave.

Comparing the Vegematic to the Headblade is truly laughable.

I've taken to putting a bit of Somerset Shaving oil on my head first. then the shaving cream. Seems to lube it up a little bit more causeing a lot less nicks with the headblade. Plus it has menthol which feels nice.

OK TWO POINTS HERE....
#1........John.....Take it back....take back what  you said about the headblade.  The headblade does a perfect job for me everytime.  Like I said only time I have gotten cut is when I put a fresh new blade on it....and even at that ...it is because I have some sort of bump or something on my head......I have mastered it enough now that I do it in the shower and I dont need a mirror....especially around the ears...i feel like I am at the Indy 500 when I go around the curves.

#2.......If I had been in those shorts.....the pic would have been alot better.  You all can make fun of my shorts if you want....but we are all different.  Why is it I feel like Pee Wee Herman when he got caught in the theater???  Leave my shorts alone.......If you really want....I can put on my new shorts ( red and white stripes)  I found them at Goodwill...they are crotchless!  Yeah ..what ya think about that ..huh???? Yeah you heard me...! LOL
NOW SCRAM!

Please, oh please tell me one of you hasn't mistaken the Palm Peeler for a HeadBlade!
