Thanks for this. In one minute I learned more than most websites talking about using a straight razor for head shaving. I normally use a safety razor and I'm trying to change to straight razor for head shaving to keep my safety razor from clogging so easily. This video is helpful for a newbie. Again, thanks.
While it's interesting to watch, would have been super helpful to show what you did ahead of time...wet head, hot water, hot towel...etc. A little description about the stuff he put on his head. Maybe something about holding the razor...angle, grip, etc.
I uso a straight razor and I shave at the same way it's the best without going against the grain you have smooth shave no razor bumps and razor burn for after little bit of practice every one can shave great video bro
With this blade, can you shave up in the back? It looked to be very effective going down, but with the fusion blade I use now, I have to go up in the back.
I highly recommend a Turkish barber In the UK. They practice on balloons. The best skin fade you will ever get. Just wait for that good one who is teaching the rest. If you see somebody say, no thanks im waiting for this lad. That's your man
I shave my head, but only during the summer time. I want to try the straight edge, but I don't know if I'd like it or not. I might go to the shop to have it done first. However, my head is extremely sensitive. Especially on the back of my neck area. I use clippers for the back of my neck, which helps with not getting bumps. I don't get them bad to begin with, but I get them. I would love to have a bump free neck.
My way but different I used clippers then normal razor then used a safety razor..splash some menthol on your head god damn that feels good for the rest of the day nice n cool
@howtobecomeabarbertv i think you did a pretty amazing job. it's hard to cut your own hair with a straight razor. those knicks happen even when you go to a barber it just depends on how delicate your skin is. i would probably cut myself way more than you did cuz i get these little bumps on my head when my head is growing then they go away when i shave with my fusion 5 blade or dorco pace 6 6 blade which is amazing.
+AllAmericanGuy01 definitely the safety razor IMO, also since it is a single blade they don't jam up and dull quickly. I went through a mach3 cartridge every 1-2 head shave. don't be fooled the commercials saying 3 or 4 blades give a closer shave. I've shaved completely against the grain with a safety razor and it is smooth like.. well you get the idea.
+matt proulx I use cartridge razors and get SUPER smooth results everytime, but it's costly. Just looking for a more inexpensive way to get the same results.
AllAmericanGuy01 Well, consider a safety razor, for less than $50 and about a dollar a blade which so far have lasted me 3 head/face shaves. I can run my hand against the grain and feel nothing. (if you shave against the grain afterwards)
there is at one comment saying he should stick with a safety razor my brother shave he head once with one of my de razors he ended having over 20 nicks. He is extremely skilled with the blade.
+Damon TheeSir those cuts were probably from little pimples or ingrown hairs. Any little bump is gonna get shaved off when you're working with a straight edge
I use a 5 blade disposable razor and then clean it up with the straight. But haircuts are still cheaper. You will burn through blades keeping your head clean and shiny. But there are worse vices.
Seriously? Take your time. I was trying to get a nice hot shave with one of these one time, and I cut myself bad. I just use gilette razors, or safety razors with bump patrol shave gel, and it works great!
I remember years ago shaving my head with a razor sharp buck knife. No shaving cream, water, or a mirror. Luckily I only had one small cut right above my ear, but would I recommend anyone else doing that? Heck no
RILLA MAN I don’t know much about shavett razors. But I’m very good with straight razors. I think it’s an art from that takes a year or so to master. If you only do it a few times or once in awhile you will hate it because it will be time consuming and the little cuts you may receive. But if you stick with it and get good not only will it be pretty quick but nothing with compare to the shave. I shave my face and head in 6 minutes. That includes 3 passes on my face and one on my head
