View Full Version : question for the headbladers

I get great results with my headblade using Sensor cartridges. The problem is that they don't last long because they get gunked up. And, being spoiled by the low cost of DE blades, the cost of these cartridges just kills me. Has anyone tried the Personna equivalents, which I think are often the store brand (eg. CVS brand)?

I feel your pain. I still get the best results on my head with a Mach3, but I refuse to give in. I started using an injector about 5 weeks ago. I get good results but have to be a lot more careful. I shave it in the shower blind, ATG only. The injector is just a lot easier for me to control (on the head) than a DE. I did try the store brand cartridges when I used a headblade and they didn't really impress me much. Seemed pretty dull from the start and got worse quick. I don't remember which store brand though, sorry.

I've only shaved my head a few times, in order to make fun of my foreman at work.
I thought that the headblade was pretty dull, and ended up using a schick quattro with pretty good results.
I did like the headslick mentholated shave cream because it seems to make the hairs stand up better, although it didn't seem to soften the hairs.
I am still using the headslick, along with gillette multiglide shave gel, and glycerin soap for some superlather.

I went ahead and bought a package of CareOne Actiflexx (made by Personna) at Stop & Shop. They work just fine and are about half the price of the Sensors.

Thanks. I didn't even realize we have a headshaving section.

Mine gets clogged really easily too. Even with only two day's growth.
