I know a lot of useless things and it boggles me that I’ve never heard of a shaver dedicated to the human head until now.

And to think that I’ve been shaving my head for as long as I can remember - well, not technically shave, but actually cutting the hair using the lowest setting on a trimmer. So this leaves me with hair that grows back in about five days, and this is my trim cycle. I trim on Sundays to welcome the new work week.

I’ve been wanting a new trimmer since last year and I first looked at Manscape, but found that it was too focused on trimming your pubes and with the magic rabbit hole that is Google search, stumbled across a (local) site dedicated to just shaving and barbering implements.

And there it was, a device shaped like a flower or like a garlic bulb sliced neatly across that was just dedicated to shaving your head. The product I found was $140+ (the brand was Braun), but then I came across one being sold at Kmart for just $47, so I got the latter.

And it really sort of shaved, not trimmed. As it glides across the contours of your head, the multiple rotating blades spin, cutting hair as they make contact through the openings in the foil. The rotary design allows the shaver to follow the contours of the head closely, reducing the risk of cuts and providing a smooth shave. And it does this so closely, that you achieve the same effect as if you used a razor.
