The FlexSeries Electric Head Hair Shaver - Freebird

Over the last 2+ decades I've used both a 0-guard electric razor and a straight blade to shave my head. Most recently it's been the razor, which I've been using for 8 or 9 years. Earlier this year I was injured and was unable to shave my head, so I picked up one of these things to keep my head tidy. I'm glad i did! Using this thing to shave is so much more convenient than the razor blade - I can shave on demand, with no need to shower and heat up my skin first. There's no mess from shaving cream and nothing to clean up after-the-fact... the hairs get caught into the shaving assembly (unlike using a zero guard electric). You can literally shave, fully dressed, and not worry about hair getting all over your clothes. The shave isn't quite smooth as shaving with a razor blade, but it's very close (way closer than using a 0 guard)... your head LOOKS clean shaved but if you touch it, it's like a 6 hour post shave roughness. I usually shave dry, but I think a wet shave might get closer. The convenience factor more than makes up for the slightly less smooth shave. One thing to note, if you're new to these kinds of devices - Clean out the blade assembly every few shaves, especially if you let your hair get a little longer between shaves. I tend to shave every-other-day and take mine completely apart and clean out the blades with a toothbrush (the cleaning brush that comes with the kit isn't great) every couple weeks, sometimes sooner, if I feel like the cut isn't great. On a support aspect - I had a problem with my device a few months after purchasing it - Freebird made it right, with very little hassle.
