Headblade

Post by Fuzzy Dunlop »

I have the "ghost" model. Its really easy to use and I like it. But, it's a little rough because it uses cartridges w/ only 2 blades (Gillette Atra). I was used to the Fusion before.

I know you can buy adapters to use the Sensor 3 blades. Has anyone used these, have any comments? I don't want to buy the adapters and new blades for nothing.

3 blades seem to be best, overall, for performance and ease of use, for me.

I don't bother with the head blade.

1. Rinse head thoroughly with warm/hot water.
2. Apply a shaving oil. Nivea's moisturizing body oil works well. So does Shave Secret.
3. With a brush, apply shaving cream.
4. Shave.

That shit goes fast and smooth.

I love the headblade. I use the sport (the one with the wheels) and I'm a total merchandise whore so I have the team thug beanie, t-shirt, travel kit, etc. The headblade sport comes with an adaptor for the sensor blades (I like the sensor blades better than the headblade dual blade, but I did get some of the new headblade replacement razors that have 3 blades so when I give em' a try I'll let you know). It's easy to use and it hasn't been metro-sexualized yet so I like it. You should be able to pick one up at your local Walgreens or CVS for about $10. Defintely worth it IMO.

The headblade comes with a black gillette sensor adaptor. I cut the shit out of my head with the headblade twin blade but the sensor blades I have yet to even get a nick and it shaves great. Good luck!
