I bought the Remington Balder Pro Rx5 and absolutely LOVE it! I've had it for 6 months now, and no negative issues whatsoever. Easy to use, easy to clean and I can shave anywhere at anytime. Not as close as a blade, but totally acceptable as far as closeness is concerned. Great video! Thank you for your opinion.

Just initiated a return request for the Remington Balder Pro. Was working great the first two times, but at my third shave (on 2 days hair), it began to jam and pull hairs. It eventually stopped and never came on again...Looked at this video in order to decide on my next buy. You just convinced me to use blades for now on when you said the Remington was the most reliable one. Thanks!

Great video, I've been using skull shavers for years now. I had a bad experience with the Pitbull after it only lasted 13 months before it completely died on me and Skull shaver wouldn't replace or repair it. I then started using the cheap £15 eBay electric shavers with the skull shaver blades but Skull shaver changed the head fitment design so I went back to using the original Skull shaver brand as their blades are fantastic. Im using the Skull shaver palm at the moment (with the larger Pitbull 5 blade heads) and it's fine but I think I'm going to try the Remington rx7 after seeing this.

Alright so Im a little lazy at shaving..... I tend to let me sides which is still pretty think get to long. Of course I havnt found a good maintenance shaver that Id just automatically do daily. The other "amazing" shavers I bought in the past just pull and tug at those hairs so I end up dissappointed and throwing them away going back to my razors. Im interterested in the pit bull gold. Has anyone tried on thicker hair and can confirm that it can cut through those thicker areas without all the pulling, tugging and getting stuck?
@shavingadvisor3 ай бұрын
They won't cut longer hair, and they are not intended to. It's best to shave with at least the max length of a trimmer (or hair clippers without comb), or it takes way too long. A suggestion is getting a trimmer like the Remington -- shavingadvisor.com/hair-clippers/remington-hc4250/ . It's not that expensive and trims down -- buzz cut style- - very fast because of the wide blade system. You can then choose to use a Pitbull head shaver after to get a close shave or keep the 0.5mm, or like me, you can switch from a very short buzz cut one day to completely shaved another day. You will run into issues shaving hair too long with the Pitbull .

Thank you for your kind comment. Out of all I have used I have found the the Skull Shaver Pitbull Gold the best for getting that bit closer. Shaving with an electric head shaver every 2 days is ideal. Do look in the description area for links to the seperate reviews if you need them.

Hi Jason, Great videos and reviews. I understand you focus on different variables for your ranking. However, if you must focus only in “closeness of shave”, which one would you choose? If it is not in your current ranking, do its closeness really make the difference compared to the ones in your ranking? In your web page you mentioned Andis ProFoil Lithium Shaver. Is that the one? Thank you!
@shavingadvisor2 ай бұрын
Thanks for your comment. I am actually going to update the Web page and only include dedicated head shavers (I want to keep it very focused). Between the Remingtons and Skull Shavers there is not much difference in closeness. I find the Pitbull Gold gets closer more comfortably than others. The Andis does get very close and similar to the best head shavers I have mentioned, but it does not have the obvious ergonomics, which makes it best suited for fades. Most facial shavers will shave the head fine, too, and the higher end shavers do a great job--but I think they are best when facial shaving with electric shavers is a must. Hope that helps. 👍

You can purchase an extra 5 blade head with the Pitbull Gold Pro if needed, but to be honest 4 is fine and 5 blades is the most I think we need. Did you mean the Groomie BaldiePro or Remington Balder Pro? I'm not a fan of the Groomie but some other guys get along with it okay. Both the Pitbull Gold and Remingtons (BalderPro or BalderBoss) are the best head shavers I have used so far. I'm just putting together a review of the Skull Shaver Platinum that you can watch in the next couple of days, but I generally recommend the Pibull Gold over that. Best of luck with what you choose! 👍

@shavingadvisor I was speaking of the groomie baldie pro. I saw a few good things about it and it's cheaper to purchase in the states vs pitbull. However I've seen the pitbull has better blade quality. The only reason I thought about 5 blade was for more mass area to cut faster. Also I believe the groomie baldie pro has higher rpm motor vs the pitbull. I'm not sure if it actually matters that much but it's something I noticed.

I’m returning the Groomie after 2.5wks of use. This past week my Groomie started shaking pretty erratic while shaving and wasn’t as smooth during the shave as it originally was upon delivery. The shaver itself was operating like a massager (pouncing up & down) and the motor became extremely loud while moving around during use, although it was still shaving hair. Then this morning, it actually was slowing down and dying upon use despite being fully charged. When I removed the blade portion to inspect, I saw that one of the circular rubber pieces where the spinning portion affixes to the blade attachment was out of place.
