Battle of the Shavers: How Am I Keeping My Bald Head Smooth?

I’m a simple man. I don’t have time for a complicated grooming routine.

I need a head shaver that’s fast, reliable, and gets me looking sharp without any hassle or nicks. Less time in front of the mirror means more time behind the grill.

Today, I’m throwing 3 head shavers into the ring – Freebird® FlexSeries Pro, Skull Shaver® Pitbull Gold PRO, and Remington® Balder Pro – to see which one is the best head shaving tool for bald guys like me.

For best shaving performance & speed: FlexSeries Pro

Look, I don’t have 20 minutes to stand there trying to catch every little patch I can’t see. That’s why the Freebird® FlexSeries Pro really pulls ahead here. Its four-blade convex design hugs your dome, getting a smooth, close shave with fewer strokes. Count on under two minutes.

The Skull Shaver® Pitbull Gold is decent with its four spring-loaded blades, but it takes longer to get that clean shave. With the Remington® Balder Pro you’ll have to go over the same spot a couple of times to get the job done, which isn’t going to work when you’re running late for soccer practice.

For ultimate comfort: FlexSeries Pro

Nobody has time for shaving irritation—especially on the neck. The FlexSeries Pro by Freebird® feels smooth on not just the scalp, but also on sensitive areas like my neck and near my ears.

I could literally shave my groin with this thing, and fully trust that there’ll be no nicks, cuts, or ingrown hairs.

The Remington® Balder Pro is stiffer and sometimes tugs at the hairs. And the Skull Shaver® Pitbull Gold felt nice on the head but it wasn’t as gentle near the ears.

For the best battery life: Pitbull Gold & FlexSeries Pro

The Freebird® FlexSeries Pro comes impressively close to perfection, giving a solid 90 minutes of battery life—just like the Skull Shaver® Pitbull Gold. This is more than enough time to get the job done for me, especially because when I’m traveling there’s always an outlet closeby.

The Remington® Balder Pro offers a battery life on the shorter side, and the shaving experience just doesn’t compare, making it irrelevant in this conversation.

For the best price & value: FlexSeries Pro

Look, I’ve been talking about head shavers but the Freebird® FlexSeries Pro also comes with a precision clipper & guards, ear & nose trimmer, and cleaning brush that make its price of $149.87 go far. Even better, Freebird is offering a Black Friday deal where you can get 60% off your shaver, bringing the price down to just $59.95.

I spoke to a few Freebird® customers who said they “love shaving my face, back, and balls with the FlexSeries attachments” and another customer said “my wife steals my head shaver to shave her legs and bikini area.” These extra attachments make the Freebird® FlexSeries Pro into the ultimate 5-in-1 full body grooming tool.

The Skull Shaver® Pitbull Gold costs $89.99 on subscription and comes with no attachments, you’ll have to purchase those separately. The Balder Pro costs $69.99, also no attachments included. Between the multiple attachments and the Black Friday deal, Freebird is a no-brainer.

For ease of cleaning & maintenance: FlexSeries Pro

If there’s one thing I don’t want to do after shaving, it’s to whip out the cleaning supplies and track down every tiny hair that’s just come off my head. The Freebird® FlexSeries Pro makes it easy—just pop off the blades, rinse them under the tap, and you’re good to go.

It’s also fully waterproof, so you can even take it into the shower to save time and further reduce irritation.

Final Verdict: Freebird® Is the Champion

These three grooming devices have a couple things in common: they’re all rotary head shavers with multiple blades reducing the risk of nicks and cuts as compared to traditional razors. But Skull Shaver® and Remington® both produce lackluster head shavers that don’t compare to the FlexSeries Pro for its speed, comfort, versatility, and value.

The price is right and I can get a full body shave that even my wife loves with all those extra free shaving attachments.

Bottom line: If you’re a bald dude who needs a reliable head shaver that won’t break the bank, go with the Freebird® FlexSeries Pro. It’s the tool that fits right into my life, whether I’m prepping for a backyard BBQ or heading out on a road trip. Plus, with that affordable price tag, you’ll still have enough cash left over for a few rounds of brisket.
