Is anyone using it to shave their head?

I bought this for my boyfriend and he loves it, especially the techie vibe it gives off and the self-cleaning function is a big win. He shaves his head and it's as smooth as when he uses a razor and cream. Best part for him is no more nicks or mess and he's done in much less time.

Sorry but I am only using it for my face but it works great for that purpose, there might be something better out there for shaving the head.

I use it on my head every day, it does a great job. I would say about 98% compared to a razor and shaving cream.

I've been using it to shave my head every other day for the past two weeks. It does a great job. I've tried multiple kinds of cartridges and DE blades, but have never been able to go against the grain without a considerable amount of irritation, especially on the lower back of my head. Going with and/or across the grain never gave me a good shave. I can rub my head against the grain after a shave and can't feel any hair. There's not pulling or discomfort and takes the hair right off. I've tried the Panasonic ES-LA63-S and it seems to take many more passes than the 790cc.

Not so well! As it works brilliantly to shave the neck and face it does not translate well to other parts of the body!

No. Another reason it didn't work for me. Very cumbersome. And uneven shave.

Yes, I take the head off and use just the blades to trim my neck regularly. It may snag a bit when shaving against the grain but does a great job at cleaning up.

Well I am neither a woman nor have a female friend who has used my razor but I believe it certainly would cut any hair. I have used it on my head and I felt some irritation resulting from the shaver operation. I wouldn't recommend it to my daughter or lady friend.

Yes it is, sorry about the delayed response. I will sell it to you for $28 shipped to you. It was used 10 times to allow my face to adapt to the new razor, but honestly I can lather up and shave with a blade faster. I shave every other day because of sensitive skin, so it may work better daily. Good luck with your search.

I have never shaved my head with any razor. However, I would check with a barber since many do use a single edge razor for shaving customers. Regardless, I would purchase this for using it on your beard. Then try your head.

I'm sorry, I don't use it as a razor. I use the attachments to trim my beard and also my hair.

no, I use it for all my clippers including my face shaver and clippers that cut my hair on my head.

It would probably work pretty well - I've used it to clean off a two-week growth of beard using the trimmer first then the heads. I haven't shaved my head with it, but it's pretty gentle on the face.

Razor works great on face and neck. I used it on longer hair on the back of my neck recently so I think it may work well on your head. Give it a shot. Worse case return it.

Lol I'm not sure if it will shave your head but I don't see why it wouldn't. If you're looking for a shaver for only that reason, I would recommend buying a different shaver for less money.

While I still have hair on my head, the design gives you such a smooth shave that I think it would be perfect for shaving your cranium. No guarantees, of course.

This should work. I haven't tried to shave my head with it but it shaves my face as close or closer than a razor.

In my experience it does very well. The head pivots in two directions. At first I would try to guide the head--now I've learned to just steer the handle and let the pivoting happen. It follows the contours of my face very well. Don't press hard--gentle pressure is fine--and guide it over your face. The pivoting lets it track the changes in surface orientation and gives you a nice shave.

No I don't think it works well that way. You should be able to get pretty close shaves using it directly on your skin

No, but I would guess that it might not work so well. I shave with it and it gives an OK shave but leaves many longer hairs on the neck. I would think that longer hair would be hard to catch on your scalp. ps when I need a close shave I use my regular razor. Hope this helps!
