 S4 Review, 7.13.2010 - Reviewer: Steven Richardson (Richmond, KY)

The S4 is in another world when it comes to shaving. The weight allows the razor to glide across your head without any effort needed. This is definitely an amazing product. I was skeptical due to the price, but it is absolutely worth it. The smoothest my head has ever been. Thank you Headblade.

it wouldnt let me give it 6 stars...., 6.18.2010 - Reviewer: Andrew (pittsburgh, pa)

The best shave i have ever had. It is much better then the sport (which was still amazing) but I dont think I will be using that anytime soon. It works around the ears much better because of the lower profile then the sport so I don't have to go over it with my normal razor. WELL WORTH THE MONEY

Nirvana, 6.3.2010 - Reviewer: Marc (Staten Islan, NY)
|
|
Just used my s4 Shadow for the first time..and I have found headshaving Nirvana. Something about the more substantial feel of the S4 just makes for a smoother, sleeker shave. I had wondered if it would be worth it even while wanting one---well it is! Thanks to my wife for getting it for me for my birthday!

THE HeadBlade to Buy!, 5.19.2010 - Reviewer: Brendan (Denver, CO)
|
|
Having used the original HeadBlade, and liking it, I must say that this is the Cadillac of the line... Or, make that Maserati... It absolutely blows the original out of the water. The wheel glide and weight of the metal body make head shaving truly effortless. Well worth the price!

So easy and so smooth, 5.16.2010 - Reviewer: Nate (Hampton, VA)

I've shaved my head for a while now and saw this at the Langley Air Force Base Exchange. I'm in the Navy and have been for 12 years now and of course, I'm fighting the bald thing too.....until recently. I said I'd just shave my head and go on with it. I'm glad I picked up the sport. It really does the job.

Got my S4 this morning , looks good . Going to have a whirl with it shortly . As its St Pats I'm sure it will give a good base for my head art shamrock session later

Wow didnt know they made another S4, 3.4.2010 - Reviewer: Pope_JohnPaul (new york, ny)

I own the first S4 that is stainless steal, but this one is a must have with the nice case ordered the S4 gift set and some more clear head.

I gotta hand it to you, 2.23.2010 - Reviewer: Carson Elliott (Albany, NY)

This one is where the head meets the road. no bumps and the weightier S4 just about makes the entire experience as nick free as it was intended to be.

Above and beyond expectations, 2.21.2010 - Reviewer: Perry Beabout (Elkhart, IN)
|
|
I'd have to give the S4 an 11 on a scale of 1 to 10. Yes, an 11, that is not a mistake. I had anticipated how the S4 would work by reading of other experiences. Fortunately, it was even better than expected. It does such a great job. My only regret is not getting it sooner.
|
WOW What a difference, 2.16.2010 - Reviewer: Perry Beabout (Elkhart, IN)
|
|
I just got my S4 Shadow. At first I was skeptical, I thought it looks very similar to the Sport I had been using. How could it be so different. I was way wrong, the S4 gave me the closest and best shave I have ever had. It totally ROCKS !!!!

Best Shave Ever, 2.5.2010 - Reviewer: Bradlee W. Skinner (Garland, Utah)
|
|
It is hard to improve on perfection but this razor does it. Even better than the sport which gave me the best shave I thought possible. Like other reviewers I too wish it had better wheels, maybe some nice 20's (to scale of course) ha ha, but really, this is the best razor period.

The greatest thing, 1.23.2010 - Reviewer: Thomas Williams (Webster, TX)
|
|
What can you say about the little metal miracle. I order the kit that comes with the S4 which is the bet kit you can buy for your dollar. The S4 makes shaving your head 200 times easier. It has the right weight so that all you do is slide it on and roll agaist the grain, lol

7.5 STARS!!, 1.22.2010 - Reviewer: KT
|
|
The S4 Shadow is simply AWESOME! I couldn't ask for a better shaver, I wanted to get the original S4, but never did, bought the old original headblade... This is at least a million times better period. I would highly suggest it to all!!
|
 Kickstands Rock!, 1.7.2010 - Reviewer: Dave L (Suffield, CT)
|
|
I hope that the kickstand becomes standard equipment on the HeadBlade Sport in the future. A nice thing to have to keep the blades off of the porcelain. Charge more if need be. Put better wheels on the S4 and you would get 5 stars for it!

Unbelievable, 1.2.2010 - Reviewer: Robert V (Mississauga, Ontario)
|
|
The weight, looks, and styling of the S4 are incredible. I've been using the regular HeadBlade for years, and didn't think I'd ever find anything better. After opening the kit that the S4 came with for Christmas from my girlfriend....I think I'll keep her! (Just don't tell her I may love the HeadBlade a bit more!)
|
Awesome!, 12.30.2009 - Reviewer: Dan (Greenville, Texas)
|
|
I ordered the S4 Shadow and it arrived quickly. It is very well made with just one problem. The wheels are cheap and make the razor feel sort of cheap even though it is NOT! Other than that the razor is beautiful, weighted perfectly to help get a slightly more closer shave (in my experience anyway). The cost is high but I think it was worth it.

review of s4, 12.29.2009 - Reviewer: glenn harris (danville, ohio)

love this razor. the extra heft of the razor makes for the best shave every time. cleans up nice after use. and looks good on the sink.

S4 is awesome!, 12.29.2009 - Reviewer: Adam (Englewood, NJ)
|

I only started shaving my head a few months ago. (I love it BTW.) I first used the free blades they give away at my gym. That was a mistake as they resemble a rusty butter knife. Then I stepped up to the Gillette Fusion. No slouch as I'm sure you would agree. But someone told me about a device built for head shaving as as a gadget guy I had to try it.
So I bought the HeadBlade Sport. It gave me a shave that was maybe 3 times better than a Gillette Fusion. I was totally blown away. I started buying more HeadBlade stuff (lotions...)
I got really into the brand and I when the S4 came out I jumped.
The S4 is fantastic. Since I started using it, I have not cut myself and I get better shaves. I suspect that the seriousness and heft of the metal unit makes me want to be much more careful. The S4 kind of lets you know that it means business.
Anyway, it looks cool, gives a fantastic shave and I like the case it comes in.
One flaw that is responsible for me giving this only 4 stars. The wheels are cheap plastic. They are so completely at odds with the manly construction of the S4 that I honestly don't know what the great guys at HeadBlade were thinking. For $99 this thing really should be perfect.
So HeadBlade, please fix the wheels and send me a new model :)
But otherwise, get the S4. It's a great product.

S4 Shadow - Combatting Scalp Shadow, 12.28.2009 - Reviewer: DrumWild (Studio City, CA)
|

I wanted the S4 Shadow ever since I saw pictures of it. It was a must-have for me.
Upon "unboxing" the S4 Shadow, I'd be short-changing this review if I failed to mention the sweet clam-shell case that comes with the unit. It holds the S4 Shadow, as well as accessories you'll need to shave your head (extra adaptor, extra blade, and travel slick). This is something you can just throw into your travel bag, knowing you've got what you need AND that your S4 Shadow is safe.
The S4 Shadow looks and feels the same as the first S4 limited release from 2004. The logo is grey-scale, which adds to the dark, shiny, mirror-like look. It's got the spring-loaded finger hook and wheels that are all black and function the same. It even has a kick stand!
I love the kick stand, as it keeps the blade off the tile. For my regular HeadBlade, I hang it on a cup by the hook.
Now, having been a HeadBlade user for the better part of the decade, it took me only a few passes to get used to the extra weight. The S4 Shadow does weigh a bit more than the regular HeadBlade that we all know and love. You know it's in your hand.
I recommend the S4 Shadow to anyone and everyone who appreciates the convenience that has been afforded to us, thanks to HeadBlade.

I USED MY HEAD......, 12.28.2009 - Reviewer: VINCENT CATURANO (guilford, ct)

When I first received this masterpiece in the mail I was very eager to open it! The first time i used it, I got a totally different shave! The added weight of the steel allows no pressure at all, giving you the best shave possible. If you are a serious HeadBlader like I am, You should already own one!!. Todd, Thanks for using your head, Now lets get everyone to use theirs!!!
