    Excellent Headshaver

    I've tried the Freebird flex pro & Groomie baldie pro. Freebird is very comfortable but doesn't cut as low. Groomie was a great shave, a bit rough on scalp but a smooth finish. Unfortunately it died in less than 3 months and Groomie DOES NOT HONOR THEIR WARRANTY IF YOU DIDNT BUY DIRECTLY FROM THEIR WEBSITE! (I bought from amazon, groomie was the seller) and for that I refuse to support them further. I was all ready to buy a Pitbull gold when I came across this shaver, its fairly new so barely any reviews. I decided to try it out for 2 reasons..Brand recognition and warranty! (plus I have total tech, so 3 reasons) Now to why you're here, about a month owned now, 10-12 full head shaves in, ...this shaver is amazing! Wet or dry it's a super comfortable shave with a smooth finish, nice and low. Very minimal "sandpaper feel" Easy to clean, blades easy to replace. We all know nothing beats a razor shave but this is darn close. I find wet shave to have the absolute best results, which is my preferred way to shave anyway. The only complaint (not really) is it's a bit on the bulky side compared to others but the flip side to that is this design allows for different grips, pitbull 2 finger style or body grip, Both feel great. The shave quality plus the warranty piece of mind(5 years!), I highly recommend this shaver.

    Handy and Easy to Use

    I recently purchased this head shaver and have used it a few times. It delivers an impressively smooth, close shave and performs much better than my previous shaving machine. The battery charges quickly and lasts through multiple shaving sessions. The ergonomic design makes it comfortable to hold and easy to maneuver, while the overall build quality feels premium, sturdy, and well-made. It is also lightweight and easy to carry, making it convenient for travel. Overall great product!

    Better than Pit Bull

    This is a good shaver previously had a pitbull i lost. However after purchasing this one. I think its an even closer shave and performs way better. Quiter and quicker to cover entire scalp.
