Hi all!
I'm new here.I'm from singapore and I've been shaving my head for 2 years now. I just want to ask some advice from all of you. I've been using headblade in shaving my head for over a year now. I''ve been using the triple blade and it works for me just nice. Then recently I tried the double blade of headblade and it doesnt works for me it get my scalp irritated. And because I'm here in singapore its hard for me to buy a new triple blade cartridge. So I'm planning to use the gillette fusion as a replacement. Any one of you using gillete fusion? Does it work well for you? How long will the cartridge last?

Hey Les,
I may be confused but are you wanting to use the blade with your headbalde?
If so, I do not think the make the adapter for it. But, I use the gillette S3 triples on my headblade, they are easier to find.
But, if you are looking to use the whole fusion, there are some people here that use it all out and love it.
I will let them advise you.

Hey Les,
First and foremost WELCOME to the SBG Family, we are glad that you've joined us. Seccond I've used the Gillette fusion as well as my HeadBlade, both do a great job of getting my head SMOOTH!!!!, However, you cannot match the comfort and controll that the HeadBlade offers. There are other blades that fit the HeadBlade, if you send mac@headblade.com an e-mail, he can hook you up with the sensor adaptor for the HeadBlade s you can use the Gillette Sensor Excell Tripple blades, also there are nock off brands equivilent to the sensor blades which will also fit that adaptor.
Hope this helps.

Welcome Les.
I'm a HB user and I use the doubles without a problem.
I know we have several Fusion users. Hope they provide the information you're looking for.

Welcome to the forum les !! I use a fusion to do my face as well as the top of my dome. I change the blades every 2 weeks although I think I could go longer. I heard another fusion user on here who said he changes his blade every 3 weeks. I have nothing but high regard for the fusion...

Welcome to the group Les. I have used the Fusiion since Gillette brought it out and I have nothing but praise for the job it does.

Welcome Les, I too prefer the trips. They don't irritate and do a great job. I have not had a good experience with any other blade than the HB ones, though.

Welcome Les!
I use my HB with the doubles and it works very good. But be careful, and think of rule No 1-10: No pressure on the blades!
Doubles make a smoother shave then Triples for me.
Good luck in your recherche.

Welcome to Sly Bald Guys! Let us know how your switch goes. My advice would be to try the Gillette Sensor blades on your HeadBlade.
