    What a superb review, you have a talent for explaining honestly and clearly and the pace and visuals are spot-on. I have used wet shaver for my bald head of last 15 years, but need to save (even more) time in the mornings now, I feel I can trust your recommendations. Thanks very much! 👍

    I bought the Remington Balder Pro Rx5 and absolutely LOVE it! I've had it for 6 months now, and no negative issues whatsoever. Easy to use, easy to clean and I can shave anywhere at anytime. Not as close as a blade, but totally acceptable as far as closeness is concerned. Great video! Thank you for your opinion.

    Just initiated a return request for the Remington Balder Pro. Was working great the first two times, but at my third shave (on 2 days hair), it began to jam and pull hairs. It eventually stopped and never came on again...Looked at this video in order to decide on my next buy. You just convinced me to use blades for now on when you said the Remington was the most reliable one.

    • @shavingadvisor

      The biggest issue with head shavers are they are prone to faults (we can't avoid that). I have not had any break apart from 2 cheap ones I bought from Amazon a few years back. Most have 1 year warranty so that helps, but keep the purchase receipt. There is risk involved with the purchase, and it is up to you whether you wish to take the risk. 👍

    Alright so Im a little lazy at shaving..... I tend to let me sides which is still pretty think get to long. Of course I havnt found a good maintenance shaver that Id just automatically do daily. The other "amazing" shavers I bought in the past just pull and tug at those hairs so I end up dissappointed and throwing them away going back to my razors. Im interterested in the pit bull gold. Has anyone tried on thicker hair and can confirm that it can cut through those thicker areas without all the pulling, tugging and getting stuck?

    • @shavingadvisor
      @shavingadvisor  7 місяців тому

      They won't cut longer hair, and they are not intended to. It's best to shave with at least the max length of a trimmer (or hair clippers without comb), or it takes way too long. A suggestion is getting a trimmer like the Remington -- shavingadvisor.com/hair-clippers/remington-hc4250/ . It's not that expensive and trims down -- buzz cut style- - very fast because of the wide blade system. You can then choose to use a Pitbull head shaver after to get a close shave or keep the 0.5mm, or like me, you can switch from a very short buzz cut one day to completely shaved another day. You will run into issues shaving hair too long with the Pitbull .

    • @shavingadvisor
      @shavingadvisor  3 місяці тому

      Maybe you could try clippers without a comb first. Gradual introduction kind of thing. Or have shot at shaving completely as it soon grows back. I would use a razor first, though, rather than committing and buying an electric. Just my thoughts!

  • @stoneymiketube

    Hello mate, just wanted to ask if you've tested any good shavers that actually leave a bit of stubble? Similar to what you get from just using clippers with no guard. I'm after a rotary shaver for the convenience and the fact that it captures the cut hair. Any suggestions would be really appreciated, cheers 👍🏻

    • @shavingadvisor
      @shavingadvisor  2 місяці тому

      There are no trimmers or shavers that leave a stubble, although head shavers are not as close as a manual razor. Have you ever tried the Remington ShortCut Pro (Quickcut and Quickcut Pro --outside the USA)? They are great trimmers than are palm held and leave the hair the same as clipper length without a comb, but you still have to clear up the hair debris. They are super fast at trimming. You can see reviews for them on my website. The OneBlade is great for the stubble effect, but it takes too long to head shave with. Hope that helps a little!

    Hi Jason,
    Great videos and reviews. I understand you focus on different variables for your ranking. However, if you must focus only in “closeness of shave”, which one would you choose? If it is not in your current ranking, do its closeness really make the difference compared to the ones in your ranking? In your web page you mentioned Andis ProFoil Lithium Shaver. Is that the one? Thank you!

    • @shavingadvisor
      @shavingadvisor  7 місяців тому +3

      Thanks for your comment. I am actually going to update the Web page and only include dedicated head shavers (I want to keep it very focused). Between the Remingtons and Skull Shavers there is not much difference in closeness. I find the Pitbull Gold gets closer more comfortably than others. The Andis does get very close and similar to the best head shavers I have mentioned, but it does not have the obvious ergonomics, which makes it best suited for fades. Most facial shavers will shave the head fine, too, and the higher end shavers do a great job--but I think they are best when facial shaving with electric shavers is a must. Hope that helps. 👍

    Great video, I've been using skull shavers for years now. I had a bad experience with the Pitbull after it only lasted 13 months before it completely died on me and Skull shaver wouldn't replace or repair it. I then started using the cheap £15 eBay electric shavers with the skull shaver blades but Skull shaver changed the head fitment design so I went back to using the original Skull shaver brand as their blades are fantastic. Im using the Skull shaver palm at the moment (with the larger Pitbull 5 blade heads) and it's fine but I think I'm going to try the Remington rx7 after seeing this.

Thanks for sharing with us 👍

    I was thinking about the skull shaver gold but with the 5 blade attachment.
    However i was interested in the groomie as well which is 5 blades. I'm torn on which to get honestly.

    • @shavingadvisor
      @shavingadvisor  7 місяців тому +2

      You can purchase an extra 5 blade head with the Pitbull Gold Pro if needed, but to be honest 4 is fine and 5 blades is the most I think we need. Did you mean the Groomie BaldiePro or Remington Balder Pro? I'm not a fan of the Groomie but some other guys get along with it okay. Both the Pitbull Gold and Remingtons (BalderPro or BalderBoss) are the best head shavers I have used so far. I'm just putting together a review of the Skull Shaver Platinum that you can watch in the next couple of days, but I generally recommend the Pibull Gold over that. Best of luck with what you choose! 👍

      @shavingadvisor I was speaking of the groomie baldie pro. I saw a few good things about it and it's cheaper to purchase in the states vs pitbull. However I've seen the pitbull has better blade quality. The only reason I thought about 5 blade was for more mass area to cut faster. Also I believe the groomie baldie pro has higher rpm motor vs the pitbull. I'm not sure if it actually matters that much but it's something I noticed.

    Thanks for the reviews, they are of a great help. I m planing to get one of those shavers and as I am on the budget, I am considering between Remington rx5 and Skull shaver Palm. At the moment a Remington rx5 costs some 45 euro while Skull Palm is 40 euro. By checking your other reviews I somehow got a feeling that Remington would be a better bang for the buck, in a regard of longevity and shaving quality. What would be your opinion? Thank you.

    Had Remington Rx7 for about 2 months, was shaving my head on each second day, few times got it on third day. From beginning it felt battery kind a lacking, but nwm i just recharge it after every 4-5 uses. After a month or so when i start it (even battery it was full) it kinda stuck and flash lights and then is dead until you recharge it ... then if you have luck it works if not it get stuck again. Sometimes was helpful to take of blades and then put em quick when shaver is ON, but it can stuck even that way.....and last day of RX7 was when it happen 3-4 times in row... recharge, try turn it on, stuck, recharge and repeat....so i lost about 4-5 hrs to charging it....got mad on it and crashed it on the flor :) (not proud of it sigh). So i still want electric head shaver...looking towards PitBull but...its more expensive, was reading about some problems with it too....and im so afraid to drop my money again...especially coz i need to buy em from USA or other country and pay shipping to Bosnia about 45-50 USD.... so it bring price up even more for me....

    I have always used clippers to cut my hair, but have recently been looking at switching to an electric shaver, so glad i've found your channel.
    My main question would be, which is best for comfort? I have quite sensitive skin when using a razor on my face, so am expecting my head to be similar!
    Also, something that's rarely mentioned, I quite a few moles on my head, are electric shavers ok with these?
    Thanks in advance. Keep up the good work, your a god send for people like me 👍

      Thanks for your kind comment. The Skull Shaver Pitbull is most definitely the head shaver I have found most comfortable. You might want to look at the video I made live yesterday that compares the Skull Shaver with a Remington head shaver as I cover the comfort factor clearly in that and the blades. Your moles should be fine with an electric head shaver as the blades don't slice like a manual blade. Keep us posted on how you get. Thanks

The shaver itself was operating like a massager (pouncing up & down) and the motor became extremely loud while moving around during use, although it was still shaving hair.
      Then this morning, it actually was slowing down and dying upon use despite being fully charged. When I removed the blade portion to inspect, I saw that one of the circular rubber pieces where the spinning portion affixes to the blade attachment was out of place.
