Bald Head Butter is back in stock guys! 👍 bald-cafe.myshopify.com/
Hey baldcafe, given this stuff is frequently out of stock, do you have any other recommendations?
Heads up on the Bald Head Butter. And a great review of the remington rx5 👍
Hi guys, I liked this thing a lot, I will try to work my magic with Remington and see if we can get some discount sorted for anyone who wants to purchase the RX5. After this first look review I definitely prefer it over the other well known similar product. This thing is also significantly cheaper. If you are too excited and just want to grab one I have included a link for the guys in the UK. It seems that unfortunately this product is difficult to find in the US maybe someone can help out with a link in the comments section if they know where to get it. Bald Head Butter has flown off the shelves (Thank You) But there will be a full restock very very soon. Make sure you follow @Baldcafe on Instagram to get all the realtime updates. Thank you all for watching and I wish you all well! 😃
Baldcafe I’d be interested to hear your findings using it for a wet shave with shaving cream 👍🏼
@@MagsWH That's kind of the whole idea of this.......to Not use water or cream.......
Dr Kevorkian never heard of it but I have now so let me see what’s up 👍
Dr Kevorkian at a first glance it looks like a very standard set of clippers. Wahl make quality products though 👍
I am interested.
I just got my dreads cut off and now I'm bald like I've always wanted this helps a lot thank u
So we are all bald in this comments section?

Fuck yea man
I purchased this about 2 weeks ago from Argos, seems to be selling really well as it’s sold out in most places now, gives a great head shave. I use this as a back up to my wet shave, still prefer the blade for that close shave, the RX5 however I can recommend highly it’s great for when I don’t have time for a wet shave..and Baldcafe’s bald head butter is the perfect compliment to finish the shave. Great video Harry! Thought this would be up soon. Keep these great review videos coming.
Thanks for a great second opinion. Completely agree with you there. The wet shave will always be the holy grail for me too but this was the first time I used one of these head shavers and found them very comparable. Really enjoyed using it.
which wet shave are you using
Hi guys, do you know how often do you need to replace the head? And where buy it form? Thank you
Yo! Watched your review here and bought the headshaver. Its AMAZING, thanks man! :D
Will it accidentally cut ur long hair off?
Reminton have the best blades for the money!
if you still have thick hair on the back and sides its more like a 15 min shave to get it smooth and several passes with cleaning the blades in between, also remington doesnt sell replacement blades for it anymore
Is it best to just go for it and use a razor with foam? Or is there an electric that does the job? Cheers in advance 👍🏻
@@penguinproductions7014 this shaver is good I do use it every day it's jut that it takes longer than 2 minutes even when done every day, I do recommend it tho
@@penguinproductions7014 This might sound weird, but hair conditioner is better than any shaving foam imo. It's really ironic that a product that is meant to maintain long hair healthy and smooth is usable for such manners, but it really does work like a charm.
As a newly “brave man due to your channel” I’ve been trying all kinds of these products out. This was next on the list since it’s the #1 rated electric razor in 2023. With your review I will definitely try it!
Hope you like it! I think it performs well in many areas and is reasonably priced. Welcome to the team 👍
I purchased this recently it’s the best one I’ve tryed so far . Most minimal irritation close to none . But gettin the hair on the sides by my ears is seeming to be the only issue . Other wise zero complaints good product for the money spent
Hi i tried the buzz cut today because of my hairline and i must say what a releave thx mate 👍
I bought both the rx5 and the quick cut and they're amazing. It was worth the hour and 20 minute que to get into argos. Great product and we'll worth the money, thanks for the good review 😁
I can't get over how close this shaves - really happy!
It’s a good bit of kit ay. Enjoy it! 👍
Nothing like that crisp razor shave!
Nathaniel Essex Fresh 💯
I brought this yesterday and works perfectly. Takes me longer than 2 minutes unlike what the box says and a tiny bit noisy but still a good product. Would recommend.
How much longer it took you?
Just got one today because my mate recommended it , used it tonight and it’s awesome, paid £50.00 for it off Amazon which is amazing, as it’s £68.00 everywhere else as I speak lol
The best,thing,about Remington is all you have to do is call,there customer service,and they will send you replacement blades customer
Sold out everywhere! Damn you Baldcafe! ;)
This video sold me. Thanks for posting
Why I found you know, I searching for few years in UA-cam a guy like you. Thanks 4 your work bro
these electric head shavers surprisingly seem to work better without shaving cream. Just rub some water on your head and you're good to go. The key is immediately moisturizing after the shave. The head butter is great but I also like the badger hair oil as a post-shave conditioner.
Dude thanks for posting all of your videos! I recently shaved off my hair and entered the bald men world. Happy to own it, but was nervous to do it.
Subscribed. ✌🏼
Welcome to the club man! Massive congratulations on taking that big leap forward!
Baldcafe Thank you! Looking forward to continue watching your videos. Your videos to your fans played a role in helping me make this decision quicker.
I’m currently on day 6 since my first shave. I’m already noticing the gap of hair on my scalp. My baldness pattern is almost identical to yours based off your videos. I’m looking to shave probably every 2-3 days.
Cheers from Texas! ✌🏼
Tell Remington I want one! They unfortunately are not selling them yet here in US... great videos and advice! Thanks for giving me the motivation and confidence to shave my head! Look forward to more videos.
Thanks for the heads up!!! Where did you see them sold??
Thank you!!
It does a really good job! I’ve used it once and loved it…..except for the irritation on my lower neck which was quite full on 😬 Maybe I went too low or was too vigorous with it. Will see how we go for shave number two 👍
How has the irritation been after using it for a while?
@@mike_t_007 it didn’t last long at all. I haven’t had any since the first few shaves 👍 I’ve gone from shaving every 2 days to every day and still nothing. It’s going good! 🙂
I shaved my head bald a few days ago bc of trich and documented it, i have a lot of videos on my channel about it. so freeing and liberating.
I’m not bald but I do love your channel and I want to show support :)
Awesome shaver. Use square tip screwdriver #1 under hot water to clean heads after use and apply oil. If you don't clean well, will shutdown when trying to use next time. Recommend warm yo hot water rinse.
Great news! I spoke to Remington and was told this will be available in the US on 9/1/20 and will be called the XR7000 in the US. Definitely going to pick one up!
That’s fantastic, any idea if it’ll be on Amazon in the US?
@@davidsmith6669 I don't know for sure, the rep from Remington didn't mention. However, I would think so because Amazon seems to carry most of their other products and their short cut pro clippers are one of Amazon's best selling items right now.
Thank you! I just purchased it. Just what I was looking for. I followed your link!
Hey, now you tried the rx5 and the pitpull shaver. Which one do you prefer? Im on the way to try one of these too. But dont know which one to choose. Hoping for your response. :)
Well… what did you get? Thinking of getting one too
i read somewhere rotatory razors you go circular motions foil shavers up n dowon
I bought this 7 weeks ago and it has stopped working, Argos have agreed to replace it so I hope the next one lasts!
So I had one for about a week and it was working fine. It was plugged
in, charging, when the power went out for about 45 minutes. When it came
back on, the battery was shot. Only works now if plugged in.
Went from reviewing hair waxes to head shavers.
This thing rips my neck to pieces. I’ve tried everything I can think of, I’m hoping my skin will eventually adapt.
For anyone in the USA buying this, make sure to also get a European to USA plug adapter...did not realize that the plug would be European and now I can't plug it into my wall lol. Good thing is that Amazon has em for like 5 bucks.
The shaver works well
My Remington died after just 3 months of use. Save your money. And it takes 7+ minutes to get a smooth shave.
Looks like it cut closer then the skull shaver pitbull but also didn't make the back of your neck red either. They may have a winner here, I'm going to have to check it out. Really looking forward to the follow up review. I'm usually using a Braun series 3 foil shaver for my head but would consider changing. Beard is on point man!
Great initial review, I'm looking forward to the month when you follow up.
👍
MGTOW Lite Thank you 👍 I was trying to find a fun way to put it together rather than just shaving my head for a collective 30 minutes. I’ll do my best 😆
I've had one for nearly 2 years now, it's still great but you also have to clean between the blades as they will eventually clog up with small hairs.
Can we have a 1 month update now please?
I love this machine. Best shave in years.
Man that seems to work a treat; and Ive gotta say your looking fly after that head shave.
Hazza Sazza Thank you! 👍 it’s a great bit of kit.
I actually feel like having the most minimal hair on your head looks much better. I feel like it’s harder for a young white guy to pull off the full shaven head, it’s easier for an African American, Polynesian, Filipino, those with darker skin
Damn, looking good! I never like how these electric razors irritate my skin, and that they don't really get that close (compared to a wet shave). I might actually get this - the way it's actually build for head shaving is incredibly appealing. Normal electric razors are a pain to use, so I always end up using my razor.
I think I'll try and order one of these as soon as they are back in stock, and the paycheck rolls in. Thanks for this video, and keep up your motivational videos. Being bald has never been sexier.
Great comment thank you 👍 I was in the same boat as you but this one is genuinely the best. I used it again tonight and managed a shave in 2.2 mins 👍 Really impressed by it so far and the price is pretty good too!
@@Baldcafe Thanks for your reply! Great to hear it's also great off-camera. Had a nice wet shave tonight, but it's just real nice to have different options to shave, whether it's to save time or just for comfort.
Keep it up!
Fantastic review as always, the dry shave looked nice & close, should've done the wet shave too & if you've done it please let us know.
Now between skull shaver & this one I guess you recommend the Remington? at least in both the reviews the Remington performance looks much better than skull shaver. Thank you, totally appreciate it.
Looks to work great, but if I have to pre shave my head to use it, after only a week's growth, I might as well just take it the whole way down on the first shave.
Great video! Just became a fan of your reviews. Would you consider doing comparisons? Would love to one done between this Remington RX5 versus the Skullshaver Pitbull Silver or Gold shaver. And/or these two versus the Andis Profoil Lithium Shaver
. Maybe your thoughts on using rotary versus foil shavers for the noggin?
Yes I'm also interested in a comparison between skullshaver and this remington though from this video, I think I may buy the remington!
Ditto
Bald by choice got mine today other vivatar I had broke. It really took 2 minutes. Pretty crazy.
First a great Honest review , I started loosing my Barnet in my late 20s - early 30s that's when i started shaving the little hair I had.
imo being bald is a pain in the arse its pretty much hats or caps all year round to keep in the heat and to stop sunburn In the summer .
The first review I saw on the same Shaver it took him 5 Minuets to shave his head .
If you can shave your head with this shaver in 2 Minuets I might consider parting with 60 notes.
Hey baldcafe and friends, I just bought this product. Very happy about it! but, I am wondering for the future: what do I need to buy for replacement blades? I see once a year given by remington... but, I see different brands of blades (remington 30 euro and others 10 euro). experiences?
Can’t find replacement blades for it here in the UK. I like the product but I’ve just realised I made a massive mistake because I can’t find replacement blades for it.
Toothpaste, sodium bicarbonate toothpaste
I suppose I'm lucky. I'm in my 40's and still have a full head of hair, but I've always been paranoid about going bald.
After watching 'baldcafe' and seeing how great these guys looks after shaving their heads, I'm a lot more relaxed about the prospect of losing my hair.
I've not seen a single guy who doesn't look better (on baldcafe) after shaving their heads, so kudos to this great channel for breaking down the barriers.
Mine got dull in a year of use. Can’t find replacement blades. Back to headblades again.
Wow very smooth headshave! It's a nice backup but nothing beats the wet shave. Great review Harry
Thank you 👍 This is a great piece of kit to have in the head shaving collection for sure.
Thanks mate, been waiting for the thumbs up from you on one of these. Ordered mine immediately. My hair grows so fast that doing a razor shave every time gets really tedious, I reckon this will be a good alternative.
Great video Harry, I use the Pitbull gold when I’m rushing to get out the door and I love it. I can finish in the car if I’m short of time , the wet shave is really the best though.I believe everyone is different due to sensitivity and comfort. Your legend brah💪🏻👍💪🏻
rocking the bald look as always mate
Nick Catton bald lads in tour! 👍
@@Baldcafe yes mate
Hey Baldcafe, sorry to ask the question if you have already done so but what is your thoughts between the Rx5 and Pitbull? I'm tossing up between the two :) thanks for all the reviews mate!
I want an answer on this too... it's like Google has banned people comparing them haha
Can you use it on your face too, like I don’t want to have to get two product
I suggested this to you via Instagram. Glad to see you reviewed it! I'm getting one! Is it available in the us?
NXN Beats ah thanks for the recommendation man. I can’t believe I hadn’t seen it. Not much promotion or advertising at all from Remington but this thing blows others out the water. Unfortunately it looks like it’s difficult to find in the US and I have no idea why but I have asked Remington 👍
I never go with machines. I definitely use razors cuz they shave much neater, I don't have do shave for another good 4-5 days and they are more pain-free. Feels like butter afterwards.
Been shaving my head since 1994, I'm a Gillette man, can shave in the shower in less than 5 minutes, technology is great for some, but will stick with the blade shave.
i agree with you. i started using the single blades but nothing beats mach 3.
Do you think it's better than the Pittbull Platinum? Thanks for letting me know.
Those products cause bumps i use elegance shave gel and a disposable razor gets the job done elegance shave gel is the smoothest no irritation shave try it
Thanks for the review, sick beard dude!
Loving the channel mate! The RX5 is sold out everywhere online, Argos appear to be the only place stocking but no availability currently. If you get a line on any of these please let us know :-)
I think The Balder Pro (RX5, XR7000CDN) is one of the best rotary head shavers but the deal breaker is the lack of replacement head availability. Remington dropped the ball with that.
Is that still the problem nowadays or sorted now?
@@WCephei77HD Not sure if they sorted that out. I went with the panasonic Arc 5.
@@RellyOhBoy serious question, I need something to also shave my privates, is that Panasonic arc 5 good and safe at that?
Can’t find replacement heads in Canada, (throwing it in the garbage and getting a Braun series 9)
@@WCephei77HD I now have a healthy fear of that. I once tried to use my Andis trimmers without a blade guard to manscape and I managed to nick my sac. I almost cried and my wife couldn't stop laughing. Wrong tool but still, Never again bro...😆
I want to get this for my son but I'm hearing that you can't find replacement blades, and I'm wondering if that has been the case with you, thank you
Love your videos. Have you done a comparison between the Remington RX5, the Bad Head LK 1800, the Pitbull Gold, and the Freedom Grooming FlexSeries?
I have been using this Remington for a couple of months now and im quite pleased with it. Im thinking of buying a Braun series 9 for a closer shave, has anyone tried both and can give some input?
I bought the Remington RX5 and thought it was ok, just bought the Babyliss Titanium Pro, had 3 days of growth, took longer but a much smoother finish, have you tried this?
It will never ever beat razor but I can see your are trying so I will give you a like to help you.
After using this product can you feel stubble or does your head feel smooth like when using a razor? Thanks love watching your content and also purchased one of your head butter which is brilliant 😁
Mikey Loveridge I would describe it as something in between. 0.1mm. Probably something like 8hrs after a wet razor shave if that makes sense. The razor will cut the hair slightly below the skins surface where as this will take it down to the skin. It’s very very adequate with this thing I’d say 👍 And thank you so much for supporting the Bald Head Butter I love it and I’m glad you do too thank you 🙏
Baldcafe how is the razor rash ?
Read in argos comes with 2 pin plug? Seeing here it is aswell. Guess il stick to using my hair clippers always
How do you wash/sanitise this? And do you need to replace the head/blades often?
Hi guys, does anyone know how often do you need to replace the head and where to buy it?
Thank you
This one seems to be the best shaver on the market!
May I ask you something different? Have you ever experienced kind of pimple-like hard little boils on your scalp after shaving?
Not a proper pimple... something hard and painful...
And definitely not an ingrown hair...
Thank you, your channel is the way
It’s a cyst. I had to go to the dermatologist to get it drained as mine was about 2 centimeters. Run your head under cold water after a shave to open your pores and remove any excess hair that may clog them.
@@bryanmccullough8984 cold water doesn’t open pores warm/hot does
the cold water traps moisturizer and watever u use in .
Cracking video mate but I still ain't convinced. I want one that can replicate my old fashioned wet shave with a razor. Still a terrific video mind.
I've had this 2 weeks. The cut is good BUT it started stuttering yesterday, probably only the 5th time I've used it. Not good. If still happening tomorrow it'll be going back.
really interested in buying this but every other day seems a bit annoying for me to keep up.. would live if i could use it straight in the 1 week growth
How to avoid razor bumps and buttons behind the head ? It hurts and it’s take time to heal? What are y’all suggestions ? I have a sensitive skin
I use both the Remington products that you used then, the Rx5 is a really good shaver and it’s a lot cheaper then them pit bull ones that are well over charged! Think this cost me £60 in Argos 👌🏼👍🏼💪🏼
Almost half the price of the pit bull ones. Glad you also like this one 👍
Baldcafe most definitely do like it! I’ve been using mine now for about 3 weeks and it’s really good! I usually use it in the shower with some shaving cream and it works wonders. I’m new to this being bald and it took me about two weeks to actually like it and feel comfortable with it but now I do actually enjoy it, especially seeing a fellow shaver and both giving each other the nod 👍🏼👨🏻🦲
Kieran Schwar Good man! It can be a big adjustment. It is a big change so that’s totally normal. Once those worries subside and the advantages of shaving your head enter the picture though ✊ ✊ 😆
Hey, cool video. What was better, this or the pitbull shaver ?
Hey great video as usual, when is your butter back in stock? I've had to buy the Nivea shave balm 👎🏽
Yasin Khan I am hoping mid next week! Stay tuned on the Instagram/community tab. Will make it happen as soon as possible 😃 👍
Those clippers look cool
Nice video mate, you sold out of Bald Head Butter mate would love to buy some. Also what do you think of the skull shaver now?? as I heard bad things about them.
Great video, just ordered one, also a very affordable price!
Waiting for the one month review!
Hi after years of indecision and going from a number 1 to a 0 finally took the plunge and bought one of these Remington RX5, used it today and can't believe how close it cuts and how much difference there is between a 0, only problem is that my head feels sore in places what should I apply to take the soreness away and is it better to use it wet with shaving gel ? The Bald Head butter is out of stock so any other suggestions
Aspirin 😏
Looks a good product. But...there's nothing that beats a sharp razor for that baby skin feel... 👍
Brought this shaver but returned it with no troubles did not like it and it did not contour to my head shape so I brought the pitbull platinum and so much more comfortable closer shave and faster in my opinion only downfall that cost
Mine is the 4 blade version
Awesome video. Beard looking fantastic, Harry. 😄
Lusky Beard Brothers Thanks brother! 🤝
How long does the foil last for and where to buy replacement foils?
Does not appear to be available in North America
Disappointingly so, I am confused why not because the company Remington was apparently established in New York... I will try to see why. I really like their products so I'm trying to have closer contact with them. Maybe we can change that 👍
I’m really thinking about shaving my head iv got a receding hairline but I use my long fringe to hide it but it’s always annoying me I don’t no if I’d regret shaving it off I was literally gonna do it an hour ago and bottled it should I just do it ?
Matty McLoughlin You absolutely should just go for it my man. If the long fringe set up is annoying you then you’ll be glad to see the back of it with a nice clean head shave 👍
I do have thick hair on top just bad hairline which makes my fringe go to a point it doesn’t grow as much on either side of my fringe I’m constantly pushing it to one side I suppose it will grow if I don’t like it if i shave
Matty McLoughlin shave it brother. Just go for it. Grow some beard (if you can) then shave your head when you’ve got some beard length
Matty McLoughlin I was in the same boat as you about 3 weeks ago, I went for it and now love it, I didn’t like it at first and that’s only because it was a big change, once you get used to it you’ll love it, I get compliments all the time saying that it suit me me and to be honest I’m literally so happy I did it, no more worries, not constantly worried about the wind and no more bed head, I went swimming the other day for the first time in years too! My hair wasn’t even that bad just slightly balding so I could grow it back in a wanted to but I don’t want to now.
Kieran Schwar iv just done it I feel better I was the same sick of the bed head every morning and the wind blowing my fringe about it’s gonna take abit getting used to but I feel better already
This unit? Or the skullshaver with the new style blades? That's the question before I pull the trigger 😅
Hi love your videos , not sure which one to for go for I like a very clean cut like yourself, shall I go for the Remington one in this video or the Phillips one blade thanks
How come your not shaving as often? And not using the razor anymore?
I was wondering about that too
it comes with a uk 2 pin plug not an eu one you have to order a uk 2 pin to 3 pin off amazon.the argument being that many bathrooms have 2 pin sockets for shavers,thing is the shaver wont work plugged in and charging the unit in the bathroom can be dangerous.why it doesnt come with a uk 3 pin i will never really know.i dont charge anything in my bathroom for safety reasons
You have to do a review of the whal finale. Everybody talks good things about it, but I trust you more 😄
Eduardo Rodriguez I agree. The only thing that makes me nervous about it is that it isn’t designed for full head shaves... will this mean it lasts half the time? Will it be irritating? I suppose that’s what a review is for 😂 👍
I used the wahl finale after my buzz cut and it does a great job for me. I just have to use it regularly but I just decided to go bald completely a month ago. I’m looking at other electric shavers to see it one might be more convenient for me to use. I’m prone for ingrown hairs and electric close shavers have minimized this for me . So I’m really searching to see if there IS a shaver out there that would help me not to get any ingrown hairs at all. It’s one thing to get ingrown hairs on your face that you can treat but,having them on your head sucks unless you got someone who is willing to fish them out for you.
Could we say its better than the Pitbull Gold Pro? (ignoring price difference)
