HeadBlade S4 Eclipse: A Cool Way To Shave Your Head With A Razor

• The  S4 Eclipse blades themselves are similar to the replaceable cartridges of other razors. What sets HeadBlade apart are the little things that you never even knew you needed. The aforementioned wheel to ensure a safer, more comfortable shave, for example.

• If you want to use this to shave your face or body, you need only turn the blade around to use it like a conventional razor.

There are other convenience features as well. The S4 Eclipse in particular is made from hand-polished stainless steel, and comes with a zippered, hard carrying case for travel. And you can easily get the sense that the company wants to make sure you’re satisfied, by including details video instructions that vary based on your specific needs.

The stainless steel body appears to be the only major difference setting the HeadBlade S4 Eclipse apart from other models. That does drive up the price significantly. The S4 Shark comes in at marginally more expensive and features a different body design, presumably to improve grip.

One of the things you really need to consider when using HeadBlade razors is the before and after shaving accessories.  Now you surely can use regular shaving cream if you want to save money. There is nothing wrong with that at all.   There are headblade products that are specifically for pre-shave activities.

The HeadShed Lotion will help get rid of the dead skin and is a great pre-wash. You then of course have the Headslick shaving cream which really gives you a seriously smooth shave.   They have special formulated lubricants to let the blade cruise right along your head for a killer close shave.

Post shaving you need some sort of after shave treatment. Headblade does offer various options in their product lines which are HeadLube Glossy which helps moisturize your head with an added glossy shine,  HeadBlade ClearHead Shave Treatment that helps to prevent those dang ingrown hairs and HeadLube SPF which is great because you have the 30 spf in it so you are protected when you go out in the sun.

And as it turns out, it’s the stainless steel that customers like best. They felt that the cheaper models were just that, cheap. A few complained that the plastic body broke much more readily, and that the stainless steel was sturdier and had a better heft to it.

Still, there were a few who complained that the S4 Eclipse was not easier to use for head-grooming than a conventional razor. Reviews were pretty evenly split on whether customers found their purchase a wise investment.
