00:00 Introduction
This video will help you decide whether to buy the older Skull Shaver Five-Headed Blade or switch to the new design, the Four-Headed Blade.
00:21 Overview
I've personally used the Skull Shaver Pitbull for more than 5 years so I believe my experience makes me a good candidate to offer advice on which of the two Blade styles is best.
When I first purchased the Skull Shaver, the five-headed Blade was the only one available. At the time, I was quite satisfied with the shave that it produced and that it caused little to no irritation or sensitivity after use. Also, each of the individual heads articulate, and you're able to dismantle the razors to clean them on the inside.
00:54 New Four-Headed Skull Shaver Blade
When Skull Shaver introduced the new 4-headed blade, I was reluctant to switch. However, when I repurchased a battery module, I learned that they now ship the units with the new 4-headed Blade by default.
Given that I had the new Blade design, I gave it a try and was surprised by the performance. It provided a closer shave than the five-headed Blade and is much easier to disassemble and clean.
01:22 Comparison Of Hair Clipping Reservoir
The new four-headed Blade has a reservoir that is significantly larger than that of the older model.
01:32 Which Is Better?
If I had to choose between the two models, I'd definitely go for the newer four-headed Skull Shaver Blade design. Even if you've been using the original five-headed Blade for a long time, I'd suggest at least trying out the new Blade model.
Not only will it provide a shave that is just as good, you'll also be able to extend the lifetime of the blade, given that I've experienced the new four-headed Blade to last significantly longer than the five-headed Blade.
Generally, the five-headed Blade lasted me about 2 to 3 months. On the other hand, I've found the four-headed Blade lasts at least 4 months
02:06 Price Comparison
For the five-headed model, the prices are $17.99, $26.99, and $35.99, respectively.
On the other hand, the prices for the new four-headed model are $22.49, $31.49, and $40.49.
I generally use the most premium Blade, the Baron, however, you could opt for the more affordable Blades. I stick to the Baron as I have a head that is prone to sensitivity from shaving.
03:03 Comparison of Shaving Surface Area
While the older five-headed Blade did provide a larger shaving surface area given that it had an additional razor head, I believe the advantages of the newer four-headed Blade easily overshadow this slight detriment.
