 "Great value for the money, battery is a little slow." 2004-11-25
By sam fortune (tampa bay, FL)
I have used this shaver for a couple months and at first I had trouble shaving with it (simply because I'd never used an electric before) but after a week or two, I became much more comfortable with it. It provides a fairly close shave,has pretty good durability (I dropped it and thought it was broken for a while but in fact it wasn't)and is a terrific steal for 50 bucks.

The downside is the battery takes a while to recharge,near 8 hours and if you have the infamously problematic neckhair as I do then you may have to use your blimey mach 3 to shave that annoying adams apple hair. But if you need a pretty good electric shaver without all the bells and whistles, this puppy is a great buy at 50 and a strong buy at 60 bux.

 "Nice product" 2004-11-21
By David C. Brayton (Healdsburg, CA United States)
The only gripe I have with this product is the plastic protective/carry case. It fell apart after about two weeks. The reason I purchased an electric razor is so that I could take it to the gym. The protective case is a necessity in my gym bag. But the plastic case cracked at the hinge joint after about two weeks. Now it is held together with duct tape.



Other than that, it's a great product, especially for $50.



I have no idea what the others are referring to regarding noise and bulky recharging stands. Noise is similar to my other razors (acceptable) and the recharging stand is in proportion to the razor.

 "Works great, but recharger design is terrible" 2004-11-19
By Braun User
The shaver works great, on par with my old Braun 5414, but a lot faster (3 times, however consider that 5414 is 4 years old and it's motor is dying - the reason I got the 5610). The 5610 appears to have a more powerful motor, and it is much noisier, but that didn't bother me.



On the other hand, the recharger design is terrible. The recharger is a separate unit that the shaver sets into. The recharger was built into the 5414. When the 5414 ran out of juice, I just plugged it is and finished shaving, then let it recharge. Not with the 5610, I'm suppose to wait 8 to 16 hours before I can finish shaving? Right. And you can't shave with the recharger unit attached because it is only held in with gravity. Now I'll have to finish with my dying 5414.



It takes me about 7-8 minutes to shave, it lasted about 6 days, or about 43 minutes (not much for a 16 hour charge), but about what the manual said it would have at about 40 minutes. It took me about 24-25 minutes to shave with the 5414 (not new, which I don't remember the times), which gave me about 2.5 days of shaving. That's almost an hour of charge, for less than 4 hours charging time.



I've been a Braun user for many years since I switched from rotory shavers (Norelcos), which really didn't work for me. This shaver works great, but had I known about the recharger design, I would not have bought it. Perhaps the 5612 with its 5 minute one shave quick charge and 1 hour for 40 minutes would have been a much better choice.

 "PERHAPS... if you're new to shaving your head" 2007-12-26
By Jonathan Sabin (Ellenton, FL USA)
I've been shaving my head for about 5 years now, (with a Gillette Fusion razor), and I've gotten quite comfortable at it.



My wife bought me the HEADBLADE for xmas, and I gave it a try.



My first thought was that by going with an Atra cartridge, I was taking about 12 steps backward in blade technology, but what the heck... maybe the unique design would make up for it.



My second thought came after I looped the thing around my finger and started to shave. It felt like I was shaving with my feet.



Now I'm going to give it the benefit of the doubt, and state that this could very well be due to the fact that my five years of head-shaving has given me "muscle memory" in that I've grown quite accustomed to moving my hands in a certain manner and speed while shaving.



Therefore, using the HEADBLADE "upset" the smooth flow and what I COULD feel was SCRAPING, as opposed to SHAVING. (I quit before I carved through to my skull!)



I will say this however: the HEADBLADE HEADSLICK SHAVE CREAM is absolutely AWESOME, and as much as I've touted the use of Aveeno shave gel for the past few years, I think I've found a replacement.

 "novel approach, but average performance" 2007-09-19
By Clinton J. Eliason (Chicago suburb)
I have to agree with the other negative reviews-this razor is tough to maneuver around the ears and really chewed up the back of my head. I would also agree that even the inexpensive three blade disposable razors do an equal, if not better, job than the headblade. Headblade nicked more in one shaving than I have in dozens of times using a traditional two or three bladed razor. The novelty of this razor quickly diminished after multiple nicks. Yes, there's the cool factor, but not at the expense of pieces of scalp washing down the drain. I did like the mentholated shaving cream, though.

 "great product for a specific purpose" 2007-06-17

I've read a few of the posts saying that the HeadBlade is a bad product and I can't disagree more.

I am new to headshaving, but I use the HeadBlade Sport and love it. I use Gillette Sensor blades and I get a smooth shave.. You must pay strict attention to the proper method of using this product, go to their website and watch the video, it helps. If you have bad habits from shaving with a standard handle you will have to re-learn and then I doubt you would ever go back to the old way of shaving your head.

I'm not sure why others have had problems with this device, I use it on a daily basis, and haven't had any problems. Sure, I've nicked myself once or twice in the two years I've been using it, but that's to be expected. After a few days, it'll be second nature.



I recommend this to all my friends who shave their head, and I honestly can't imagine doing it any other way.

 "Skin irritation" 2009-04-15
By Francis F. Weir (Saline, MI United States)
I purchased this shaver after reading another review that said it was wonderfully non-irritating. I'm afraid I had the opposite experience. It was highly irritating to my skin.

 "Simply elegant travel shaver delivers a close shave" 2008-10-31
By George C. Targonski (Sayreville, NJ)
Almost as good as a Norelco 3-head shaver. It takes a bit longer to finish shaving since you only have 2/3 the shaving area, but the shave is darned close to a Norelco. I prefer a rechargeable to those models which use 2 AA batteries - who would remember to pack batteries? According to the instructions, the shaver will not run on electric power if the batteries are depleted (unlike the home version of Norelcos). It is much smaller than a 3-head home shaver and fits comfortably in the hand.



The instructions didn't include an order form for replacement heads, though if it's used only for travel the set that was included should last for years. More troubling is that the instructions say that the batteries can NOT be replaced, and reminded the user to safely dispose of the item at the end of its useful life. Mind you, this caution was not in the fine print but in the body of the instruction manual - which makes me wonder how short a lifespan this shaver has!

 "Nifty little bugger. Not the closest shave, but smooth." 2008-10-05
By Dude... (Toronto, Canada)
Ok, to start with I'm not a fan of Remington. So, I was kind of biased to start. But they pleasantly surprised me with this shaver for $30 (that's what I paid for it), decent shave (not the closest, but ok). But the main thing was that I haven't felt a thing while shaving (and I have sensitive skin) DRY!!! That's right. So, one star for being compact, and two stars for the smooth shave it gave me. I don't mind little stubble every morning, but I HATE when one of these rips my face to pieces.



P.S. Little summary below, and for all of yous with sensitive skin who hate shaving, this little bugger is a steal. (ppl w/sensitive skin READ 4 stars)



Pros:

- fits nicely in my hand (not TOO small or awkward)

- smooth (literally didn't feel a thing while shaving)



Cons:

- 16 hr charge (stone age, eh?)

- not washable and not water-resistant(need to re-e-e-ealy spend time cleaning it - 2 mins shaving + 6 mins cleaning)

Tried the Headblade a few times. It takes allot of getting used to and I never got good enough at using it to get a good shave. Be careful with this thing.

 "HeadLess Blade Head" 2009-10-19
By Bartok Kinski (Prague)
I had a near-sighted Mohican barber named Quepeg in Syracuse NY usually shave my head with an old fashioned razor. Perfect. He eventually retired so I had to look for something else.



I used this primarily for shaving my head, as it gives no room for fleas, ticks, protezoa, or miotianta to live in your hair. Hair is also a great fertilizer for Barbary plants so I was conducive to ecological demands placed upon me by my hippy girlfriend who is bald. I have a year's supply of Baby oil too, so I need to use it up with my bald head.



That said, I cut myself to pieces each time I used it. I looked like a bloody head stump from a horror movie plus I got dizzy looking at the reverse angle in the mirror every time I tried to shave.



Now I just settle for the electric buzzer, which leaves a bit of hair but it's safer, unless you do it while in the shower or in a lighting storm.

 "A design that just plain WORKS." 2009-04-18
By M. Myers (Homosassa Springs, FL United States)
I've been a head shaver for quite a few years now. Initially, I used a Gilette Fusion Power, which is a nice razor. It's difficult to use a conventional razor for shaving a head. Too many curves to use with the long handle.



I bought a Headblade when I found it in the clearance bin at Walgreen's. I was skeptical but gave it a try. Am I ever glad I did. This product is fantastic. Others have given good advice----make sure you use a light shaving lotion, not a foam. The Headslick cream is great, and the highly mentholated formula feels good. I use it on my face, too.



If you shave your head and aren't using a Headblade, you're doing it wrong. :-)

 "Ouch" 2007-02-20
By Evan
Ok, my girlfriend seen this gadget called a headblade and figured I just had to have one. I've been shaving my head slick since 1996. Think I did it the first time on my 22nd birthday. Since then, I've gotten used to no barber trips, using a nice clean soap to wash my scalp and enjoying not having to worry about "what if I go bald" that most men worry about.



I use Mach III Turbo, I've tried Quattro, I've tried that M whatever by Gillete that is powered, none work better than basic Mach III, none come close to Mach III Turbo.



I seen where this headblade uses Atra refils. Like others here, I remember using Atra as a teenager. Having said that, I didn't even know that Atra blades were still around. I laughed a little when I read this, "Double blade" first, I am Italian. My hair is very thick. Two blades? Sure, I will try it out.



The first swipe brought blood. Ok, double blade isn't going to work. I check out the site for the headblade where they have triple blade refils. I order a set and put the headblade up until they arrived.



I'm happy to say that with a triple blade this little razor is nice. It makes a smooth path, no jerking movements. I had a terrible cut a few weeks ago because I sneezed while shaving with a normal razor. The blade bent downward and gashed me.



If I had been using this headblade, I don't think that would have happened, since it fits snug around my finger, where as the regular razor was resting in between my fingertips. So, for the most part I recommend this. I would say if you have thick hair do not even try it with the double blades. I've shaved my head enough that I can shave my face and head in between 5 and 10 minutes. Even so, my expertise with a blade was not enough to save me from nicking my head with the double blade.



I'm going to try some of that shaving lather they have and will review it when I do. I think men with shaved heads are a group of our own and should try to at least help each other out so we aren't walking around with nicks all over our heads!

 "Smoooth!!" 2006-11-13
By Vivek Hurry (Mumbai, India)
Faced with a trend that made no economic sense - pay my barber more each time to cut less hair - I was toying for a long time with the urge to do a full Monty on my pate. The only thing that kept putting me off was the old wives' warning of less hair to comb but more face to wash. That and the logistical problem of how to get it all off ergonomically without actually scalping myself with a cut-throat razor, contorting my arm into a pretzel with a safety razor or vibrating my little grey cells into porridge with an electric razor. I had heard rumors of the HeadBlade but had never seen one during all my travels. A friend assured me that it wasn't an urban legend, so I jumped onto Amazon to look for it, found it in about 2 seconds and ordered it.



When it arrived, I gingerly inspected it and resolved to try it out. I did so, with mixed results the first time. It's all in the wrist work and the pressure. Since then I've used it about 5 times - once a week is all I need - and now thoroughly swear by it. Not a nick to show for my efforts and my kids enjoy kissing my bald pate. I've got myself two packs of replacement blades and a bottle of HeadSlick and am thoroughly enjoying my freedom from hair slavery.



Ever wonder why all the smart aliens in the sf movies are bald? It's natural evolution and HeadBlade just helps you evolve to the next plane of existence. Smoothly.

 "a disappointment for sure..." 2009-09-23
By Noddy
Bought this in February of 2008 so it is ~20 months old right now. No longer holds a charge for more than a day or two. Have to leave it on constant charge to be sure of being able to use it.

Since new it has often refused to start if switched off in the middle of a shave and quickly turned back on. Setting it in the charger for a couple of minutes required to get it going again.

Battery technology in this thing was obviously not a strong point and not at all what I expected for a fairly expensive (at time of purchase) shaver.

Cleaning cycle does not always dry the shaver properly. The smell of the shave head after cleaning isn't the greatest - not at all fresh smelling the way I expected. Cleaning cycle not sufficient to deep clean razor - manual brushing and rinsing is still required periodically.

Slow shaving and have to go over and over a couple of places on my neck, probably go over everything 2-3 times routinely. Some neck hairs almost never do actually get cut.

Will probably throw this out when I am finished with the last few cleaning cartridges I have on hand. Very disappointed in this shaver.

 "Not worth the money" 2009-03-15
By Dr. Rick Kirschner (Ashland, OR)
I was pretty excited about getting this shaver. It was a gift from my wife, and her intent and mine was that I could stop buying disposable razor blades. The shaver came with an insert that urged me to keep going for at least a month, so my skin would get used to it. I did. I missed the return deadline, because I really wanted, hoped and dreamed that the razor would eventually perform as I had initially believed it would.



I don't have rough skin or a stiff beard. I have soft skin and a soft beard, and this razor gets about 83% of the beard, misses the rest. It doesn't matter if I go over the same areas for 3 minutes or 8 minutes, if I want a clean shave, I need to use a razor to get my cheeks and neck area.



I called Panasonic, and they were helpful in that they provided me with a list of stuff to send with a return, but promised only to replace it with another of the same unit if, after testing, the unit was defective. That seems pointless, as I'm guessing that the razor isn't defective, it just doesn't perform as the marketing statements lead one to believe. So I now have a beautiful (the design is lovely) shaver that doesn't do me much good. Caveat emptor.



The one place where I does hold some value is if I need a quick shave in order to kiss my wife, as it gets the area around my mouth pretty well.

 "Convenience more than function" 2009-11-24
By Clint Emmett
I have been shaving my head for eight years now, 5 years and 10 months of them using a headblade. I recently completed an interstate move and lost my headblade...so for the last few months I have been using my trusty gillette mach 3 to shave my head "old school" style. I have to tell you, hands down- the gillette razor does a better job and leaves me with less nicks than the headblade ever did.



The headblade is convenient, I will give it that. It does a "good" job, but not one that is stellar. It fits easily in your hand and has a very shallow learning curve on its usage. However, like another reviewer stated, it only accomplishes shaving in one direction, with a "taditional" razor- you get the added advantage of maneiverability. That makes all the difference.



I cannot call the headblade a bad product by any means, heck I used one for years...but it just cannot compare to using a traditional method to just "bic-it." While the razor itself may not be the be-all end-all of the dome clearing world, the shaving creams, lotions, and scrubs that headblade produces are top notch all the way. So...my advice, is to fire up the razor you already have, but swap out the shaving cream with some headslick...follow that up with some headlube (a great moisturizing lotion) and you are good to go.

 "Best shaver for the bald look, but..." 2009-10-24
By Dr. Phu™ (Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive)
...it could be better. The overall design of the Headblade is a stroke of genius; it may take a couple of weeks to get used to the shaver but it's the best thing on the market for us dome heads. It could be improved if it were made of a solid aluminum or stainless steel to give a better, more solid feel to the shave, but as it is, it just works. The cheap plastic just doesn't feel solid, and as a result, you might tend to press harder on the head/skin than needed, causing nicks and bleeding. The secret is to put the pressure on wheels and just let the Headblade do its work.



If you are a lifetime chromedome, get this product. Remember, it takes a couple of weeks to get used to the shave.

 "So much better than a traditional razor!" 2009-10-15
By CaptainRoy (Cedar Rapids, IA USA)
A friend of mine mentioned this razor to me - he said he'd heard someone talking about it on Howard Stern's show. It was good timing since the previous time I'd shaved, I'd cut my ear and lost about a pint of blood (BTW, why do razor cuts bleed for an hour? I could have had my leg removed by a runaway train and it would probably stop bleeding faster...)



I could not be happier with this razor. I used to use 2 different razors to shave my head - a Schick Extreme 3 disposable (due to the "flexible blade") for most of my head and a Gillette Fusion with the battery (the vibration leads to fewer cuts, in my experience) for small problem areas like around my ears.



The biggest problem with the Schick is that you have to apply some pressure to get the blade to bend to conform to your head. With most of your head, it's not a big issue, but in certain spots (on my head, anyway), you're going to get some nicks and cuts from time to time.



The Headblade is MUCH easier to use, and it makes shaving MUCH quicker. The first thing to remember, though, is DON'T APPLY ANY PRESSURE TO THE BLADE! Just let it ride your head and make sure the wheel stays in contact with your skull at all times. I wasn't great with this at first due to my experience shaving with the Schick - I was either applying pressure or not keeping the wheel down, which is of PARAMOUNT importance.



A good way to visualize it is to think of pushing a flat-blade shovel across some loose dirt. As long as you keep the shovel blade relatively even with the dirt, it will slide across easily. However, if you raise the shovel handle, the shovel blade is going to start diving into the dirt and getting stuck and digging out gouges. The dirt, in this example, is the SKIN ON YOUR HEAD. The wheel is there to make sure the "shovel" glides easily across the "dirt" on your head.Dirty head!



I shave in the shower, which I HIGHLY recommend - there's less mess to worry about and the hot water will keep your stubble softer. This thing is so smooth that you don't really need a mirror unless you're worried about accidentally shaving off an eyebrow. I usually shave my head front-to-back at first and then apply some more shaving foam and go back-to-front on a second pass. It'll also do a decent job around your ears, although I still use the Fusion for a little clean-up. I'll also hold the blade up to the shower head after each pass to rinse the blades clean - shaving long passes on your head stuffs the blade more than shaving your face would.



One other thing: although the instructions say to switch hands for shaving each side of your head, I stick with my right (I'm right-handed) since shaving with my left hand feels so awkward. Make sure to tilt your head when you're doing the other side and keep the same rules in mind about not applying pressure and keeping the wheel in contact with your scalp. It's going to take a few shaves before you're comfortable with it, but stick with it - it's going to feel strange at first. By the third or fourth try, it'll be totally natural.



I'm using Sensor blades in it right now and they work just fine. I haven't checked Amazon's prices for bulk blades, but I've been buying mine at a warehouse club where they're pretty cheap. I put in a new blade once a week for the "peace of mind" factor. There's nothing worse than having to go to an appointment with blood running down your head. My mean goatee and shaved head already scare enough people. Adding blood is, frankly, a bit of overkill.



One last thing: when you're replacing the blade, it's going to go on in the OPPOSITE direction than a regular razor's replacement blade would. If you hold the Headblade "up" like a traditional razor, the blades are going to be pointing UP rather than down. Unlike a regular razor, which you "pull" down your face, you "push" the Headblade - it's more like a snowplow, or the shovel in my entertaining allegory. Perhaps I can make the shovel into a whimsical Disney-like character which will spawn a series of young-adult novels. The dirt can be the main antagonist, but it'll need a better name, like "The Dirt Of Ancient Evil" or "Cougar Town."

 "Quick but has drawbacks..." 2009-08-17

Their is no doubt that the Head Blade could be a great product. 2 things need to happen to make this happen.

1. The company needs to update to modern blades.



2. Change the design for easier clean out.



The head Blade will give you a quick, uniform shave if you follow the instructions and take your time. However most any modern "stick" will give you a closer shave. I shave my head daily and have done so for over 10 years. I demand a skin close shave and the head Blade cannot deliver this type of shave. If our hair only grew in 2 directions like the company would like you to believe then the product would be fine as is.



As we all know...this is not the case. In order to get your dome "skin tight" you must shave against the grain. For me this means nape to crown, forehead to crown, and then sides up to crown. 4 directions...not 2. The head Blade simply is NOT designed for that type of ultra close shave. It's a time saver if you want a sloppy shave but it actually will cost you time if you want the best shave possible due to sheer awkwardness and all the touching up you have to do.



It is my opinion that the Head Blade company is in business to sell their gels, oils, scrubs, etc...The "space age" Head Blade is just the means to do so.



If quick and dirty is your goal, get a head blade. If you prefer a precise skin tight shave then stick to the modern 3/4/5 blade traditional units on the market.

 "It works" 2009-06-22
By N. Pucci (Seattle Area, WA USA)
I have been shaving my head for about 3 years now. I decided to give the HeadBlade a try to see if it would work better than the 5 blade razor I had been using. It worked better then I thought it would, and definitely took some getting used to. Time spent with the HeadBlade vs. the previous razor dropped in half after using it a few times. My advice to anybody who wants to try it: read the instructions and don't rush
