You suggest not getting it wet, but the instructions and the platinum say run in water to clean, the platinum even supplying a unit for this purpose.Also use a foam not a gel (as the gel can leave a thick residu.)
My head does fine with my Babyliss. It’s my back neck that bubbles up like crazy. I’m thinking of picking this up to wet shave my neck and for mowing down 2 or more days of growth. Good to know I’m not the only one riding their multi head shavers into the ground. My old one broke so pit bull here we come!
Looks like a great bit of kit. When I eventually join the Hairless Master Race Im sure Mrs Bob would enjoy running one of these over my bonce. Thanks for the review Mike :-)
I wasn’t impressed with the pit bull when I first purchased it but having played about in the shower I found it worked much better , wouldn’t be without it now
Just bought one & 1st shave was in the shower & super clean and easy… and I went with the gold only because I don’t need a face shaver (using the new Braun 9 Pro) but over all I give it 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I shave my head constantly and usually have my girlfriend shave it with a straight razer. However For my Birthday here in the next few weeks she is gonna be getting me a skull shaver. Hopefully I can find a coupon floating around some where cuz The larger blade one is the one I want lol. Go figure the expensive ones are what I like!
How you showed the man some love Skullshaver, I bought a gold pro and now three of my friends have too pretty much 100% off the back of Mike's two detailed reviews. 👌
V informative vid thanks. Just bought a Silver and ended up buying the 5 Baron blade as the Pro version was out of stock and I am unsure as to how my skin will react to the included Carter Pro blade. Will find out as eagerly awaiting delivery. Will be using shaving foam with it too to assist with reduced irritation. The only issue is how long it will take , had the barber do mine yesterday with a rotary and am hoping this can cope even if it’s a week in?
@@mikesunboxing Arrived today, had my first go with it - used shaving liquid which lathers up - 1st lesson learnt, you don't need a lot as the blades kept getting clogged up with it but a simple rinse sorted that. Doing wet shaves as I have sensitive skin and normally the barbers rotary does irritate for a few days after - Took a good 20 mins or so this time. Really, really positive first impressions, nice and close (never used a razor on my head just a rotary from the barbers) - intend on using it daily as I really like the look and to get the time down. Main mistake made was using it on the back of my neck, it is STINGING! Won't do that again and will have to use a trimmer there for the future. I didn't use any of the oil that came with it (says one drop a month per blade) - what are your thoughts? Needed? Used the default Carver PRO 4 blade and not the Baron 5 I bought extra, not feeling any irritation but will see how it goes and maybe do a comparison Baron shave in a couple of months or so as it does state it takes 3 weeks for skin to get used to it. Still had to use a trimmer near my ears /sideburns but perhaps with more use I'll get a technique going. Let's see how 29 days go and if I have to invoke the 30-day return!
Just watched ur first review.. FANTASTIC JOB will definitely be getting one of these. (Didn't know there was such a thing.) Would be so much better than clippers.
I've been using Philips shaver and used it wet without issue with bacteria and also no shaver burn even when new. Buy a known brand for your skin. Phillips is really really good.
Terrific demo and review Mike, great work! I looked for this razor on Amazon and could not find it with both the three head (face) and four head (skull) attachments. Is the three head trimmer a separate add on?
they sell it on the pitbull site in various configurations, it was about 2 or 3 years ago that i got the first one with both heads so maybe that isn't an option now, i need to take another look to be sure. the heads are all available to buy individually with 3 4 or 5 head models and in various grades of closeness
Been thinking of buying one but concerned about the lack of customer care if there is a problem with the item. Reading reviews this issue with customer care, seems to be constant. Item is expensive to buy and this is a concern, can I ask what yours thought are on this?
i have been using mine for pretty much two years and it has been flawless so i have had no need to contact support so i can't give any solid feedback on that. IT is a genuine concern to be honest, and hopefully whatever issues that the support structure have had or are having are fixed as it is a good product and i would not like to think that the after sales support was going to be a reason for me and others to look elsewhere. I have reviewed and used many shavers over the years and at present the gold and platinum are the two i always come back to. If that changes i'll make the viewers and our little community aware of it.
Got mine today and I'm about to use it, got the gols as well cause somehow was the same price as the silver one (one level lower if you think about it) weird... Gonna try with some shaving gel/cream and then put some after shave in my head. Hopefully it works well cause I've been shaving my head since I was a kid and doing it with a normal trimmer without seeing the back, just going on skill pattern sucks.
i used to always wet shave and kath would get pissed off as i would do it before going to be and be ages in the bathroom and then wake her up when i came back in the bedroom. This little beauty has saved all that 😎
Metal paint started chipping off of my new pitbull and it lodged into the blades. This was their response... Hi Timothy, I am more than happy to offer you 10% off towards the purchase of replacement blades with the new matte finish top. Our replacement blades aren't covered under our warranty like our handles (motor/battery) because they are considered a consumable. This is our policy which is available publicly on our website. The terms and conditions of which are not going to change. If you have any other questions, we would be happy to assist you, but as for this issue we have provided all of the necessary information. Thank you and have a great day.
i tried one and didnt like the closeness of the shave felt like this was a pre shave , shave. then i needed to shave, i like it smooth to the touch and this just wont do it. ive prettyt much resigned myself to knowing ill never get razor blade close with an electric.
I'll be getting this soon. I probably will go to the barber for my first go around but I was curious if you used anything to moisturize your scalp as well as shampoos or conditioners. Do you use anything to help left up the stubble better like a shaving brush?
Soon I want to for the bald look I don't like stubble and visibility of of it and I can't do zet razor shave do you think this will be satisfying me enough?
What the hell is this? Are you a mind reader? I was looking at rotary shavers last night... I've used foil shavers with good results (Arc 4) but have never been sold on giving a rotary a try. With your review I find this a feasible solution worth looking into now. Looking forward to whether you can test a set of replacement blades for it as there aren't any specifically for that model on Amazon. But there are parts that are deemed compatible. Great video as always. Man I'm glad I'm subbed to this RUclips channel, and not just because we are friends. You review all the stuff I wanna see haha!
Hi Mike! I recently purchased a silver pro shaver, and I have to tell you I’m extremely disappointed, on a few levels, the shaver is ok , but for some reason it will not shut off I’ve reached out to the company with no success, the charging mechanism is not good. Just not impressed, and I researched this product for about two years or so before buying their product. TY
you need to use a higher Ah charging point, the lower rated ones don't put enough charge in to make it shut off as it should do. I have had many airpods and other devices that do the same. Try changing chargers and it should be fine It is like the fuel pumps in the garage if you lightly pull the trigger it will keep pumping until you release it as the difference in resistance is not there, the charging circuit works in a similar way, it is looking for the resistance point and low powered or trickle charging won't always get there. It will eventually if you leave it long enough. anyway give that a try and see if things improve
i have used the same one for just over 2 years now, which is way more than they suggest but it still seems to work well but i do look after them and clean them fully after every shave
RUclips should be shame. They are recommending to see people with lost hair on their heads, like I have something to do with their hair lost. I have amazing videos RUclips is blocking and promoting people with Lost Hair, advertising everything about people with lost hair loss hair loss hair lost hair. I am sick and tired the Lost Hair advertising and promoting. I have the best hair in the world so RUclips is blocking my videos jealousy.
I am skeptical to try it. I see they have an F rating on BBB. I've also heard some pretty bad stories on customer service, the product reliability, and the return policy. The good reviews make it sound more appealing, but not sure. Normally I would buy and return if I wasn't satisfied, but from the reviews about returning, it gives me pause.
Pitbull paid u well to promote them, maybe that's why u don't mention that when u buy it its impossible to reach anyone if u run into problems. This gold u doing paid promotion died for me in first 4 months. The worst company and quality of shavers. There's plenty of cheaper and better quality then this joke shaver company.
i have never needed to contact them for any problems or repairs as all of my shavers are still working perfectly after all this time. but sorry to hear that you have had issues with yours, hit them up on facebook or twitter and you should get a response
@@mikesunboxing im shure that u whos doing paid promotions for them didn't had an issues and that ur still working and no problem whatsoever. That's why trustpilot is full with those with bad experience where this company has 1.2 🌟 which says it all. All best.

Thanks. Just got mine a couple of weeks ago and used it once despite a lot of bad comments I loved it and the speed.
Great to hear!
You suggest not getting it wet, but the instructions and the platinum say run in water to clean, the platinum even supplying
a unit for this purpose.Also use a foam not a gel (as the gel can leave a thick residu.)
i would suggest not getting it wet purely as for me it increases the cleanup time
Real men like me use a cheese grater to shave their head with. The blood transfusion costs are killing me though!
lool
Nah real men shave there head with duct tape 🤣🤣
Man I HAD TO GIVE IT UP 😫🤣

i like them to be honest and tried a good few brands and this is the one i use almost daily when i can be arsed to shave
Thanks!
No problem! and wow thanks for the super thanks! much appreciated!
My head's Been waiting for this ....!1
mine too
Ah, Mike, a polished dude who really shines in the crowd O.o
Lol

@@mikesunboxing Id best warn the local zoo to hide all the monkeys and beavers.
@@uglybob7505 lol!
I wasn’t impressed with the pit bull when I first purchased it but having played about in the shower I found it worked much better , wouldn’t be without it now
in the shower it is close as a razor for me, maybe even a little to close
U shaving ur head or ur monkey?
Just bought one & 1st shave was in the shower & super clean and easy… and I went with the gold only because I don’t need a face shaver (using the new Braun 9 Pro) but over all I give it 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
nice one! i still need to replace my blades but it still does a great job but screams at me a bit
Does it shave better the head then the brawn?
Hey Mike! Thanks for such a great review with this follow up video.
Let us know if there are any other products you would like to try out.
Deal! Mrs Mikesunboxing could do with a little trim downstairs 😎

Skull shaver ok 👌 in my book so far😊
yeah still use mine almost every day
I’ve always liked it As yet haven’t changed the blades which look tricky to buy. I’ve been on Skull Shaver uk and everything is usually out of stock
there was a period recently where stock was very limited but seems okay now

hope you like it, i use mine most days still and really impressed with the cut or lack of them 😁
A couple of more questions;
1, where do you find spare parts for this?
2, is the battery replacable?
spare parts are available from skull shaver direct, and i don't think the battery is replaceable, but they could hopefully confirm that
I can't get on with foil based razor's. Tried many times. Wish I could as this looks very handy.
i used to always wet shave and kath would get pissed off as i would do it before going to be and be ages in the bathroom and then wake her up when i came back in the bedroom. This little beauty has saved all that 😎

hmm not good but it the paint is from the unit not the blades surely that is a production problem?
Ha ha! I actually thought you used it on your pet pitbull. Cheers, Bob
I use a rough towel and a spray of Mr Sheen to finish off
ha ha i actually lol'd at that one
i tried one and didnt like the closeness of the shave felt like this was a pre shave , shave. then i needed to shave, i like it smooth to the touch and this just wont do it. ive prettyt much resigned myself to knowing ill never get razor blade close with an electric.
sometimes you need a while for the blades to bed in before it gets really close, i did find that was the case for me
Once your head gets use to it the shave is better, also try it in the shower with just a small bit of shave cream (I use Head Slick)
@@jamesstewart3052 Thanks for the feedback James 🙂
I'll be getting this soon. I probably will go to the barber for my first go around but I was curious if you used anything to moisturize your scalp as well as shampoos or conditioners. Do you use anything to help left up the stubble better like a shaving brush?
i just shave dry most days and shower daily in the morning, i don't have any dryness, if anything my scalp is more towards the greasy side
Hi is there a way to change levels to 1 or 2 setting with an attachments ?
no there isn't sorry, just changing the heads for a different type
thanks for the update, could be of use to me if I lose my hair in the next 50 years 🙂
do it early :-)
I hate you.
💓@GA
Great video Mike but thankfully my greys are still growing haha 18mths since haircut so i get "hobo" from my girls lol😂👍
That's awesome! wish i could grow a nice bushy barnett
I think there must be something wrong with your battery, I shave every day both face and head, after a week I am left with 75 %.
different hair and skin types make a difference
When I'm dry shaving my head with the pitbull gold skull shaver do i need to moisturize my head afterwards?
depends on the individual, i am a rather oily skinned person so never need additional moisture, it doesn't scrape and anything so should be okay
Can it be used for very short hair too or not advisable? I have clippers but they aren't great. Would be nice if I can just use this for that too.
i think about 5 days to a weeks growth is about the most i would try
@@mikesunboxing Thanks man!
I only find the one with 4 heads. How can I buy the 4 heads with the extra 3 heads?
Thanks!
I’ll try and find a link for you tomorrow
Soon I want to for the bald look I don't like stubble and visibility of of it and I can't do zet razor shave do you think this will be satisfying me enough?
i don't see why not, give it a go
Do you need to oil the blades after use like you do with hair clippers or trimmers?
not necessary, but you can if you wish
Do the blades spin when turned on? Or are they not meant to?
the blades spin the blade cover should be in a fixed position
@@mikesunboxing awesome Thankyou!
What about those hard to get creases at the back of the head?
seems to do really well even on my strange shaped noggin

👍
Best way to clean it ??
i use a old paint brush to remove hairs after emptying, but otherwise a quick rinse under the tap and let it air dry after
@@mikesunboxing the paintbrush makes sense it seems like that's better than a little brush that comes with it
My shaver is cutting off automatically when shaving, any ideas why?
not sure not come across that before, maybe get in touch with skull shaver and see what they suggest?
I liked your video
