    Default Fatboy

    I seem to have trouble getting the fatboy to perform adequately on the head. On the face it is exquisite. Rivalling even the best straight razor edge. On the head it pulls and doesn't perform as well as I would like it to which is sad because I don't want to have to use multiple razors for my grooming.

    Any tips or tricks for head shaving with the fatboy?

    I wish I could ,,, in the 45 years I used a fatboy I didn't head shave all the time but I did and still do as a matter of a fact I just shaved my head the other day with mine and no issues, its all about the angles and I have found that on the head its a different attack posture. also when I do the head, I tend to dial it down to 6 where I usually use it maxed out at 9 ,, so I guess what I,m saying is I never heard of it not working on the head Tc

    Could it be that if you shave your head after your face that the blade is too worn? Maybe super thick head of hair?

    If you shave your head first then your face, and all is fine on the face, I got nothing lol.

    Usually face touching up the beard line and then head. I tried the fatboy again today dialed down to 2. Much better head shave, no nicks or irritation I just had to do a few more passes.

    Very thick hair indeed.
