Very surprised and pleased - Everything I needed
First off, I was very skeptical. These reviews are very hard to sort through. How can one person give it 5 stars and then someone else give it 2 or 3. I bought this, expecting to return it based on some of the reviews.
I had used a hair clipper to shave my head very close and as soon as I opened this, never using one before, I opened the box and shaved my head. Very surprised, but a day or so later, I started breaking out. I did some reading, bought a bottle of Lectric Shave and now have no problem. I take a hot wash cloth and put it on my head for about 30 seconds, wipe my head, then rub my scalp with lectric shave and then proceed to shave my head. Literally takes about 3 min, tops, to shave my head. After the shave, I put on some conditioner and Voila. I am very surprised and extremely pleased at the job this shaver does. I don't know yet how long the blades will hold up, but so far so good.
Update 5/10/22....still absolutely love this thing. I use it every day for a nice smooth head
Update 6/16/22. I have received a few questions so I figured I'd post it here. Before each shave, I do use Electra shave, rub it in good, wait a minute or so and then proceed to shave. I normally try to clean it out after each shave as that improves the results but if I am in a hurry, I can get 2 good shaves in before I have to empty and clean it out. Hope that helps
