About this deal

Handle/Body –The body of this shaver is the handle. The sides of the shaver are rubberized for grip while shaving. Some of the options can be a bit expensive, but in the long run, the higher price of a more capable and comfortable razor is well worth it. I started off I buying the Remington XR1500 to start with, but wasnt that pleased with how close the shave was. Tried a Skull shaver platinum next which was even worse, fortunately I had no problems returning it to Pitbull UK. So I ended up with the Andis profoil and have been using that ever since.

As for head shavers, the Andis ProFoil or Wahl Finale do have really thin foils, so they cut the hair very close, but those wear out fast. I’d say 3 to 6 months tops when used every 2 days. An Arc 5 will last significantly longer and still shave similarly close. It is however more expensive and the Panasonic replacement foil+blades are pricey. The Remington Balder Pro would be a really good option in my opinion. It’s cheaper than the RX7 and shaves pretty much the same despite the Turbo mode on the RX7 — I have both and the Blader is even more comfortable. It’s a safer choice compared to the Skull Shaver options. This is particularly important if you’re using a foil or rotary head shaver to get that really close shave. If my razor blade can get me a 10/10 for closeness and my Braun Series 7 gets me to a 7/10 for closeness, do you think the Andis will get me to a 9/10 or 10/10? While you could simply use a hand mirror, having a proper setup with (at least) two mirrors is game-changing and will make your head shaving sessions a lot more enjoyable.This type of business model is based on a constant flow of new customers as too many of the old ones will not be returning. Brand loyalty occurs when it is a two-way street, not just one-way. I’ll be trying out one of the other units you evaluated. I am sure one of them will give me the same shave at a lot less cost, and a reliable future I can trust. Reply I even used it as a body trimmer with the 4.5mm guard — and it works incredibly well, especially on the legs as you can take advantage of the curved blade. And while this won’t be an extensive how-to guide on shaving your head with an electric razor, I think you’ll still find it useful. It’s extremely practical with its integrated LED lights and sturdy metal hooks, allowing you to hang it from any door. Also, since it’s not waterproof, you cannot rinse it clean under the tap. You’ll have to use a brush or a can of compressed air to clean the blades from the very fine hair dust. How to use a head shaver effectively

Wet and Dry– The shaver may be used wet or dry and with shaving foam, soap, or cream. Remington state this shaver is 100% waterproof. I usually crank up the AC before using any shavers on my head as I do tend to sweat a lot, especially with some bright light shining on my face. Any info/advice you could share would be excellent. If the Remington cuts as close as the Philips, it’s a done deal. But I’m open to suggestions.For example, a head shaver like the Skull Shaver Pitbull is practical and will give you that smooth, bald look, but it will only work if your hair is short. The closeness is again surprisingly good, but something like the Balder Pro or the Pitbull will shave much closer.

As for downsides, they are the same as in the case of other regular electric razors that are being used as head shavers. The second one lasted less than a MONTH. Shaver #2 now registers on its display that it’s charging… but the damn thing doesn’t actually, y’know, turn on or work. Two faulty products is not a coincidence, it’s garbage. At this rate, a third shaver would probably end up lasting all of 2 days before sputtering, wheezing, and subsequently exploding in a ball of fire and cheap electronic parts. Hell, a fourth shaver would probably commit suicide in transit before ever arriving.Some shavers like the Braun Series 9 are quite gentle and I personally can get away with being sloppy, but others like the Andis ProFoil or the Remington Balder Pro are not and you will get razor burn or even folliculitis. So unfortunately the only viable option would be a device with shearing blades and guards like the HC4250.
