Using the PHILLIPS ONE BLADE razor to do a full HEAD SHAVE.
Welcome to Baldcafe and to the video. Whilst back in England recently I decided to pick up the Phillips one blade razor. I was curious to find out if it could replace my traditional wet shave with a razor.
Since going bald I have been shaving my head for the last year. Although I was really impressed with the razor it is not as close of a shave as traditional wet shaving. This razor is great if you haven't shaved your head for a long time or if you usually buzz you head with clippers and want a closer shave.

![Philips Oneblade review // Scared to wet shave? [TRY THIS]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/tfJ8jK3GObU/mqdefault.jpg)
This is the best review of this blade I've found. Thank you for not spending 20 minutes just to shave in front of the camera without properly showing the results after. I would have loved to see a side by side comparison with a regular razor shave, but this is great. Thank you!
Bro thank you for the confidence that you have shared through your videos in this channel. Finally today I had the guts to shave my head completely without any worry. Getting really good feedback from everyone. Thank you all who have shared their stories in this channel. I was facing hair loss for a long time and was trying to hide using caps or hair spray. Feeling super free today.
Thank you!! Love from (Kolkata)India
Got the one blade today. First time i went for the cut , got to say it feels so great i wanna use it every day !! thank you for the video helped me a lot. And by the way your work here is with one word . AMAZING
Seriously, as I am searching for a travel trimmer I found your videos. ... You look great with the 1mm look! And also from your facial expression you look more relaxed in the before than the after : )
Actually, this length of hair looks amazing on you! And the moustache is a masterpiece!
Thanks man 👍
I saw this video a few years ago and I'm still using my OneBlade. In fact, I just bought a spare for the second bathroom. I love them both. ❤❤❤
Thanks for the vids mate, been looking for something like this for a while as my bald head is now at the point where a buzz cut triangle fringe back and sides don't blend in with the bald on top very well and don't think I'm ready a proper shave yet so this looks perfect
My pleasure man, let me know how you get on with it.
i used to buz my head down with a normal head trimmer but now I watched this and realised I have a oneblade at home that I use for my beard I will definetely try this on my head.
I'm using a Whal Peanut for more than 25 years. Daily. The same clipper. I changed the blade twice. If you clean and oil it regularly I don't see it fail on me. I'm 47 and I'm shaving my head since I'm 20. Very close shave, very powerful, small, corded (I hate weak battery devices), not hair pulls, no bumps. To me nothing comes close to it. Sometimes I finish it off with a single blade safety razor on special occasions but for day to day life, Whal Peanut it the best on the market.
Just used this for my first "head shave". I must say I am impressed with how much hair this tiny thing can handle and how close the shave is. Also very little irritation, the blade does not get super hot which causes irration with other electric razers for me.
Its really surprising right! packs a big punch this thing.
Once you use the blade for around 1 month it does start to pull pretty bad .
@@Jordanlee862 Your opinion now?
I was scared to wet shave my head and you saved me because I have one of these and was hoping I could use it
Great review! I bought one last week and i use it on my head & face. Best shaver i ever had! Pain free and close
JKnowledge That’s awesome 👏 I was really surprised just how good it was!
JKnowledge
Hey! How is the OneBlade keeping up after a year of use? How many time did you have to change your blades?
Thx for your review. It works very well. No more bleeding head. ✊😃🤘
Mate you look good with the 5 day growth! Gives me hope as I'm lazy af and only shave my beard once a week tops. Head shave incoming within next 2 years
I’m buying now this one, thanks to this video. By the way, great channel! You gain a new follower. How you fix your beard? (I’m new with beard)
Love the vids, just across the channel yesterday. Just how we moisturise and exfoliate our faces, would you do that if you are wet shaving the scalp ?
Great video and thank you for it! I've been wondering how good or bad that razor was as I see it in all of the stores. I no longer wet shave my head as I nicked it in the shower and then I looked like I was from the movie, Carrie.
Good video. Getting this today!
Great review. Thanks.
Great product for shaving your face, closer than normal electric razors, but without razorburn of traditional razor.
Bought one years ago to maintain a nice stubble as a beard, now a couple years later I ended up shaving my head and let my beard grow out so I guess it will turn into a head shaver instead. I guess it ultimately worked out. Might try the n.1 guard on it to see how my hair looks with that, for some reason I went straight to no guard on my first shave so I might need to experiment with short hair first
Got mine ordered This looks like a great product
@@Arman-uy8ud it is a great product for my face anyways but not great for shaving my head
Closer than the balding clippers by Whal? They’re the closest clippers I’ve used, like 2 days after wet shave
Hi. Excellent video. Thank you.👍
I tried using mine. It works great except the blades only last about 3-4 shaves (shaving every day) before they’re bad and need replaced. I think great for travel but very expensive long term.
Same experience. With the hear it wears out after few shaves.
Same very disappointed. This review needs updating, you’re making a lot of people waste their money dude
i shaved my dk for 1 year straight and they were still good :D
Got this product today, was wondering if i can use it on my head because im wet shaving my whole head every 4 days or so and i have same exact beard type as you. What can I say. IM SUBBING :D !
Yeah man I have used it like that and it worked great 👍
Can you do a comparison: half head with foam or soap (wet) and the other dry....using this OneBlade, please.....see if there is any difference.
thanks man
You're very nice to watch, very likable :)
Martyna Durska Thank you! Really glad you liked the video 😃
How many days once we have to shave a head. And how long this blade will exactly works.
Thankyou!
My pleasure.
To be honest mate, I think that length before you shaved it looks good on you.
I just got this today, thought it might save me a few Bob or at least save me worrying about whether I've got any trusty 3 blade Wilkinson swords handy
Why are these blades so expensive and when you use on head they last about two shaves maybe three at a push waste of money
dude i've got the same shirt. lets goo
This is harry at his best beard length.
I’ve got 3 of those
Used it twice now on my head and it’s blunt but love it when new Philips need to make one of these for the head bigger blade and more robust would get my money
I’ve seen Remington have made something similar claiming no need to change a blade for 5 years. Can’t validate yet though
would this be the best for shaving with smp
Good video!
Awesome! glad you enjoyed it 👍
U have new growth budddy i clearly see
Can we buy just blades if we gonna run out of 3 basic ones?
Can it be used to cut straight lines? Lining up
Does this cut shorter then a no guard buzz
I use one blade for 2 or 3 years now on my face and it is still preete slim expirience
We literally have the same beard 👍🏼
closg1930 Then you Sir have a glorious beard!
Use in both directions. It's a dual blade. Great shaver.
I was impressed too.
That's the resolt I get from the omnishaver I do prefer this one no irritation at all.
Yeah this is irritation free for sure 👍 Gota find those ideal products.
maybe you should try out products just a bit longer to judge and make recommedations as this blade blunts real quick, it is pulling already after 2 headshaves, so very very expensive
Nice one
Dollar store safety razors. A safety razor with 5 double sided blades for $1. 10 shaves per kit means $1.50-$3 a month.
I bought one here in Canada. 45$ for the standard kit. The blade lasted MAYBE 5 shaves? They are wildly expensive so unfortunately ... this was a bad investment
Post a video on yourself shaving your beard!
Just bought one today and have charged it as instructed,but it's neither holding the charge or maintaining a constant level and just loses power-any suggestions?
Well, I love and hate oneblade, it’s very convenient, but the blade lasts for 3-4 head shaves which makes it suuuper expensive and wasteful. Haven’t found a good trimmer to cut hair to around 0,5 mm for a foil shaver. Any recommendations?
I have been shaving my head with one blade three times a week & its been 8 months & 2 weeks now, I'm on the same blade. I have to say that I always wet shave that is moist scalp put the shaving gel on wait for 2 min & 2 passes & done. Let me tell you this is the closest shave I've got with a trimmer & I have an andis t-outliner corded with deeptooth GTX blade zero gapped by andis zero gapper tool & one blade gives you closer shave than andis when shaved wet with zero maintenance no oiling nothing just get in the shower shave & done. I'm so glad I did not go for the andis t-outliner cordless, one blade shave is closer wet & about the same dry.
Since when did we decide to do what the company tells us to do? If they have it their way they will tell us to change blades every shave. These blades lasts more that 4 months at least for me & I have thick coarse hair on my head. If you're backing out of one blade because of the 4 months blade replacement chances are you wont replace your blade for at least 8 months or more.
My first blade is been giving me the same performance as I had got it for the first time no bluntness or skipping of hair still 2 passes & done. I have bought the pro version now but using the same old blade from the first one.
Bottom line you don't have to change blades every four months & for longevity of blades may be wet shave. Sorry for the long reply.
Great information and insight. thank you
Andy Roth, do you have consistent results? Based on your tip I switched to shaving wet with the one blade (shaving dry resulted in a dull blade within 2 months). I had some good results in the beginning, but after one month the result is not so smooth anymore. The blade is not turning green or anything. Out of frustration I took my saftey razor and shaved my skull. I am curious how my skull looks tomorrow, since since I had always problem with shaving bumbs before I had a beard.
The best combo would be to cut the hair down with the GTX and finish it off with the one blade. The GTX is a trimmer while the One blade works amazingly as a balder/shaver to finish it off! Thats my combination for my facial hair and that would probably be an amazing combo for head shaving too and it would help those razors last too.
Guys, I just dont understand whats going on. I WET shave (with shaving gel) my head every other day with oneblade and after like 4-5 shavings the razor is not usable at all. Its just tearing my hair after that, not shaving. Am I doing something wrong?
hi there
my brother mitchell is 44 years old &
still has all of his hair
but he loves to shave his head
not as close but not far behind this look
i may buy him one of these if they sell them
in australia
*carly i know you will read this comment
give up asking him to grow his hair
it will never happen
hehehe
thumbs up for your video Bald c
rachel m
I absolutely love this razor for shaving my head smooth. As a female, I find it empowering to shave my hair all the way down from time to time and this razor is my go to.
Thats awesome! I was really impressed with this thing to be honest. I mainly use it now to line up the beard but It worked great when I used it for a head shave.
Empowering? Like who's stopping you from doing whatever the fuck you want, playing the victim card, eh
Thank you for that empowering statment...bless you all
I find it empowering to shave my entire body clean with this razer and then grow out my head hair like a chick. I've never felt so strong.
@@monsecko4792 when did the poster say anyone was stopping her? You sound like the complaining bitch here
How long did it take?
Anyone know if I can run this over things like strawberry marks? Have a couple of my head and I can usually only shave with a foil shaver
Phillips one blade head vs REMINGTON RX5 whats better?
Mine comes in a few days. Hope it's worth it. Gonna be my first time shaving my head.
Oh shit, I just realised, it comes with 2 pin bathroom plug. and I dont even have the port for that fs
I used the same shaver. It was TERRIBLE for me. It would refuse to shave my back hair to the same length at the front hair, so I had to press it down really hard in order to have all of my hair be even. The blade has problems staying in the holder. It easily falls out without you having to use the button to get it out; it would just randomly fall out while I am shaving.
Que modelo es? QP2521 O QP2620?
The one blade I feel is the best.. shave no issues on the face head or body at all..
The best electric shaver in my opinion
It's impressive, I agree.
Name of exact model. I see they have 3 models
Even better than the ultra-known superb Braun Series 9? Reallyyy?
Braun series 9 is a very different price bracket compared to the Oneblade.
That blade gets worn down fast right? It's like $12.50 for each new blade...
Sorry a bit late the the video, Like you I normally wet shave every 3 to 4 days, would the one blade be an adequate replacement to the standard wet shave in terms of closeness?
It doesn't get quite as close unfortunately. If you want as close as possible stick with the wet shaving 👍
I have just tested the oneblade thanks to you. I bought it 29€ from the local supermarket. The shave is pretty close. I would say around 0.5mm with the bare blade. It's actually for beards, but works as well for the balding man's close shave.
The cut is not as close as with a mechanical razor, but closer would trigger irritation anyway.
I wished you did a video on head skin care (lotions or whatever). Exposing the skin to the sun may have consequences.
It looks good a lil bit longer
_Even more impressive is that your hair wasn't grown out for that long in the first place!_ It's a shame I overlooked this one. The only downside seems to be its disposability.
DO NOT USE THIS SHAVER FOR YOUR HEAD, it does a decent job but it blunts the blades real quick, and they're not cheep to replace.
@Gytis Stankevičius I just got one. I was able to do my head like 4 times before I started to feel it pull when shaving. So the blades definitely dont last long for your head
Loungejay yeah i blunted it in under a week but its so so good it’s a dilemma
@@bri83 If anyone sees this... I don't love my Bodygroom (it sometimes pulls, gets clogged w/ hair) but I generally do my head with that first and then go over everything (especially tougher spots like behind the ears, and top of my head where Bodygroom stuggles with my much thinner hair) with the OneBlade to finish. I get a 3 pack of blades, after using a brand new one on my neck X number of times it becomes a head blade. My neck is most sensitive but if I only use the OneBlade to finish my head it's still sharp enough to last awhile. That way I can extend their life by using duller ones in less sensitive areas. When my newest blade is nearing the point I wont want to use it on my neck anymore I order a new 3pack. Probably every 2.5mos? I'd say i probably tend to shave this way about every 4-5 days. The Bodygroom is then still good for like your back/arms/chest kinda stuff.
Oh I also think the OneBlade is pretty good for mustache trimming.
Alan Hartley Just found this out with mine. Looking for another shaver.
Exactly. When I used it on my head hair 2 times, worked very well, no irritation at all. But I could already see how blunt and shabby blades went. It lasts me 3-6 months on my beards, but for my head hair, it would probably last 3-5 uses.
I think this was ur best look
Is the phillips one blade 2530?
Can you review the arc5?
Try Philips shaver in all its series (the best one is 9000). You will be surprised. :) As always, great video.
Sergio Garofalo Thanks for the feedback. I’m going to get lots more shaving goodies in the future. I’ll try it out. Thanks for the recommendation!
Looks a bit long with the short head? I like the bigger clippers, gets the job done in 2 mins!
Not the fastest of shaves but clean to say the least.
@@Baldcafe Fair enough sir, I know that the smaller heads can cut well, but are quite timely and they annoy me lol
Hey which product in your honest opinion is best, I avoid wet shaving because of the irritation but use clippers twice a week as I like my hair to be as short as possible. I am looking to invest at the minute which product would you say is king in terms of clippers/this (cordless preferably)
Thanks
Honestly I like the Surker clippers from Amazon. I’ve got the golf ones. They are a fantastic all rounder. If you want a closer shave you’ll need to get an electric shaver. My favorite is the Remington RX5 👍
How many millimeters can you shave ？
I really want to try this. I started losing my hair a few years ago due to alopecia so I prefer to keep my head bald and I love it but when I went to look up the one blade it seems like there’s different model numbers QP something something is there a specific model number that I need for this one?
And if this turns out to be a dumb question, thank you for at least answering my dumb question 😊
I have been using my one blade to shave my head for a few years, but it's proved expensive because the blades wear out too easily when using on the head so I've bought myself a Remington rx5
Do you like the RX5 better and if so, why exactly? I'm trying to find an alternative to my head shaver that is a pain to clean.
@@stevemarvin391 I prefer my RX5 because it's a smoother ride on the scalp, it's easy to clean with a much longer blade life, if maintained properly, the blades should last for years and you shouldn't have to worry about replacing them. The whole shave lasts around 1-3 minutes, depending upon how careful and precise you want to be.
John, thank you for your honest and detailed reply. I will definitely be buying one in the very near future.
Does anyone know what cuts closer, the one blade or the Remington ultimate head shaver ?
That's a great question as I'm wondering it myself!
great video thanks! but the one youve listed is quiet expensive, this retails for about £30 even with the additional combs and blades instead of paying £55, you can buy it for £30 from argos
This video is a good few years old now 👍
Can you put the eaxct model in your description? They have 3 models in the stores here.
this one www.amazon.com/Philips-Norelco-OneBlade-QP2520-90/dp/B01D328BG6/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=phillips+one+blade&qid=1561737841&s=gateway&sr=8-1
Just a tip
unless you have thin hair or very little it's basically useless.
I have a receding hairline but coarse hair took me over 30 minutes to cut........
Same problem
The product is meant as a beard trimmer. It works good enough if you are shaving every couple of days/a few times a week. It needs some extra time if you haven't shaved in about a month. It's not the best product ever but it helps me limit my visits to the barbershop to once every three months or so once I'm growing a beard and that's because I suck at shaping it.
When buzzing my head with this I found the length great but the blades didn't last very long. I was having to change every 3-4 shaves before it started 'pulling' at hair follicles rather than cutting them. Opposed to the 3 months it suggests. Not a criticism of your video as you're very informative. More just my real-world experience
Same. It is only 3-4 months for beards because you are not going to use it every two days like for hair. The blade is to soft for hair and it gets dully really fast.
@@ivanbaran3730 still would you suggest it?
@@C2HGaming if you have money then yes...
Wow, but is it time consuming pal
Blade lasts maximum 3 shaves on your head are not cheap to replace .
i am bald but i got really thick hair on the back of my head, and this shaver cant handle it, and stops. the only thing i use it for is to outline my beard, and the outline of my hair, from the ears and back to the neck. its perfect for removing that.
That was my concern. Thank you for sharing your experience.
I have one blade and it is not worth using it on your head. You have to replace blades when they get clogged and they will get clogged really fast if you are going to use it for head shaving.
Hey baldcafe, is this trimmer okay for bodygrooming?
I use it for that and work perfectly, i guess the people having problem with this product doesnt use a talco on the zone to shave. In the next days i buy a new blade and shave my head.
Was curious on this razor. Looks like it does a great job. What part of England are you from? I know the accent. lol
There might even be a newer version in the shops now. I’m from the south! 👍
@@Baldcafe Ahh sweet. Have an awesome mate in Suffolk, and another in Stoke. Cheers, bro.
Which is better for clean deep head shave Philips one blade or Remington Rx5? Baldcafe please help....
Remington RX5
@@Baldcafe thanks
It's ok but in my experience it requires often of multiple passes in one area as it doesnt get all the hairs..leaving scattered little hairstrands with closer look. But still good.
Hi please see below and let you have any further information 1000000k
I've used this for my head on many occasions and find I'm only getting 2 cuts out of 1 blade. Its certainly not a wallet friendly way to cut
Blades are extremely expensive though :/ also they don’t last as long when shaving head lol
Yeah it sucks long term
how expensive?
My blades last max month. I use it for head and shave two times a week. Really sucks, because I like it.
@@jokdaris Agree. I use it for hair twice a week and for mustache every day and after 1 month i need to replace blade cuz you can feel and see difference in quality of shaving.
in time its really going to hurt because it pulls the hair maybe because of battery degradation
I wish it was bigger and wider
The red spots on the back of your head, get yourself a shampoo (or cream) thar contains ketoconazol, wash your head and leave the foam on for 5 minutes, then rinse it off, it should clear up in a few days.
Nizoral Shampoo
@@damagecontrol7 correct, best one, they also have nizoral cream, but the shampoo is best, this shampoo can also clear up athleetes foot in a couple of days.
Is a 8 day growth too much to use this?
800 days is not too much. You just use the 1 Guard and then no guard.
@@dublinvids5146 OH i didn't see your answer
Did it without guard, it went well!
10 days
