I have two spots that I cut almost everytime I shave my head. I use a MACH 3 razor when I do it. I'm not sure how exactly to stop this. It's always the same spot. Ive even had skin in between the blades from it. Ive tried hitting it from different directions, no joy. Does anyone have this issue? The location seems uninteresting. Not a skin tag or a mole or anything that sticks up. It must be just the right shape that the blades dig a little deeper. I rarely go razor tight now. I usually use electric, but I'd rather stay razor tight. |

Whatever you do, DO NOT try a Headblade…for me anyway, they were fantastic until that moment they decided to take a bite…and at that point they were fantastic at peeling my scalp off of my skull. IME, triple blades with wider spacing work better and you just have to be careful; I hold the razor by its head (not the handle) for better control. |

I used to have the same problem when I started shaving my head (a couple decades ago), and the old Schick Tracer solved the problem. They've been redesigned over the years and are now called the Xtreme 3. The blades actually conform to the curvature of your noggin. https://www.schick.com/collections/shop-all-xtreme/products/shave-the-day-xtreme3-sensitive-disposable-razor Once I got more comfortable and better at shaving my head, I was able to ditch the Schicks and step up to a safety razor without cutting my head at all. |

I shave my face with either a DE or a straight razor that uses disposable blades. I've tried the DE on my head, no bueno. I've also used the HEADBLADE, it doesn't work for me either. I've been using the ANDIS electric shaver, but it often misses things if there's more than 24 hours growth. It misses anything too long, so I often find missed hairs where I can't see. |

My only issue so far is my fat fingers and trying to remove the center blade for cleaning. It came with a bunch of crazy attachments that I'll probably never use. |

I have tried every head razor and a couple of the electric ones. I have now found the perfect items that give me a babies butt head shave in only 5 minutes. The razor is awesome and very rarely nicks me. Shaving gel Razor |
