Great video. I just got it, tried it for a week, and am sending it back. The main reason is because I prefer the no stubble feel. For anyone who uses a blade now and is considering this shaver, the best way to describe it is that it leaves your head feeling like 8-10 hours after shaving with a blade, stubble wise. Personally, I want to start my day feeling fresh and a clean shave is a huge part of that equation. I don’t want to start the day with a shave that feels like I’m already 8-10 hours into my day. That’s just my two cents. I’m glad others like it!
As crazy as it sounds, yes I do wets have my head and face daily. I stopped using this razor completely. It just wasn’t for me. I am likely in the minority though.
I just got one ...ready to test it out...in my opinion that cut it gave u in the video is good to me...I'd rather do that then shave all the time with a blade ..
I know I’m late to the video… Appreciate your videos. Seriously considering the Freebird. Quick question for anyone who has already taken the plunge. Is getting the membership (to get the lifetime warranty and blade discount) worth it? Just how often do you change your blades? I’m new to the head shaving community and trying to figure this out… will probably look to shave my head every 2-3 days.. thanks in advance for your assistance
Thanks for the straight forward review! Unfortunate to hear some people are having issues in the comment section. I am about to order one for Black Friday & now I am concerned.
I’ve never had one single issue and I’ve been shaving every other day since this review. I have the blades come every so often, I don’t even hand to think about it. You won’t regret it.
Got mine like 3-4 months ago. Definitely a great close shave. It looks just as good as a razor shave but when you can feel a little bit of tiny hairs when you pass your hand over your head. But at least no nicks or cuts. :)
Thanks for being honest. You said it’s NOT blade smooth. That’s the best part for me with using my razor. I want the low no hair at all besically feel.
Appreciate the info. I was considering buying this shaver but I prefer a razor-smooth shave and was wondering if this product was going to deliver what I wanted before I spent the money on it. Thanks again!
You’re welcome! It gets it close. Only the top of my head isn’t blade smooth, so I’ll just go over that with a blade afterwards. It’s not perfect but it does make it easier.
I just got one today and your review is spot on. I got the case and a couple of extra blades. You're right. The back of my head feels razor smoothe maybe better than a razor with no cuts.
I just received mine today and its awesome! I'm not really ready for the razor but still want that close shave feel and this is it! Took me no more than 10mins my first time amd I'm really pleased. Plus, theres no mess and easy to clean!
This shave sucks after few months - I just had mine for 4 months and it stopped working. It's not water proof not even water resistant, the screws rust out on the shaver itself and build up humidity inside the saving mechanism. Worst money ever spend and Freedom grooming is not answering any of my emails as I am trying to cancel the recurring blade charges.
Yeah I believe I'm going to have to pick one of these up. I have been using a Brio Beardscape for about 2 years and it does a really good job but it doesn't get as close as I would like. Plus the cleanup is a pain. Great review
i had the exact same effect where the back is extremely smooth but the top not as much. i go over the back with this and then shave the rest with a razor cus i don’t struggle with razor burn or anything like that, just got this product for fun
cool review, definitely looks like it works, but i am reading lots of disturbing reviews were people are complaining about an unauthorized subscription - a monthly $25 charge to their credit cards for new blades that cannot be cancelled.. and that their customer service is impossible to reach..🤔🤔 🧐you sure you don't work for them, pal?🧐
I had my first one for over a year before the battery gave out. But since I get recurring shaver heads they sent me a replacement for free. Can’t beat that. ✌️
I bought this shaver and really liked it but the first time that I opened the blade heads to clean it out on of the plastic backings that hold the heads cracked and broke off.
I’m sure if you call or email them and explain what happened they’ll send a replacement blade. They can be a bit flimsy, just have to be extra careful, I’ve broken one off too lol
It really depends on how often you use the mower but usually they’ll need sharpening twice per season or after 25 hours of use to keep your blades in good shape
You’re very welcome! You can also get new blades that just pop in, sent to you on any type of recurring schedule. They last 55 or so shaves. Hope he likes it!
@@Mc88Flyy I actually shaved half my head, then charged it and it's coming on but it's very quiet and just not cutting. I look like an escaped mental patient but I'll try charging it longer, thanks;
@@internetexpertmd4670 if you’re still having issues after charging I would email/call them. If could be a faulty shaver. I’m not sure how long to initially charge it, just wait for the red light to turn green.
@@Mc88Flyy I've tried multiple ones and same result. I'm African American so perhaps that has something to do with it. If I don't let it grow out or use a single bladed razor, I get chewed up.

Do you literally wet shave with a blade every morning?
As crazy as it sounds, yes I do wets have my head and face daily. I stopped using this razor completely. It just wasn’t for me. I am likely in the minority though.
I just got one ...ready to test it out...in my opinion that cut it gave u in the video is good to me...I'd rather do that then shave all the time with a blade ..
I just run a real blade on the top of my head after and it combines to make a perfect skin tight shave and very fast.
Thank you for this. I’ve been skeptical because you know people are paid to do “excellent” reviews. I’m going to make an order now!
You’re very welcome! I wish I was getting paid 😂

I haven’t looked into the membership yet, I’ll shave just about every day, they say the blades last 50 or so shaves. 👍

I got mine 2 day Walmart, it's Quick and Easy, 8/10/2023
I hate the Velcro head feeling when I do that so I don’t know
I wound up trying out Harry’s and man that’s the best blade I’ve ever used. Get the top of my head super smooth.
Good video. Thank you! Can you shave while shower is running? Meaning, is it water proof?
Thanks! And yes you can, it is water proof!

How long do blades last? 1 yr ?
Just bought it and used the rotary shaver last night, it works well. Thanks for the tips!
I just received mine today and its awesome! I'm not really ready for the razor but still want that close shave feel and this is it! Took me no more than 10mins my first time amd I'm really pleased. Plus, theres no mess and easy to clean!
Glad it worked out for you! I get the blades shipped to my house too, it’s nice not to have to worry about it. Still using mine 💪

I’ve never had a problem with mine. Could be hard water causing your issue? Sorry for the late reply, hope you got some sort of resolution. Cheers.
So... can this be used below the belt?
I’ve never nicked my head so I would say yes.

🧐you sure you don't work for them, pal?🧐
Haha I wish, that would mean I’d be getting paid 😂
Does the hairs go everywhere? Like on your shirt or in your eyes?
Not at all. They stay in the razor housing until you wash them out.
I just got last week. Hoping it lasts longer than skull shaver; I had five of those break on me and will never buy one again.
I had my first one for over a year before the battery gave out. But since I get recurring shaver heads they sent me a replacement for free. Can’t beat that. ✌️
How often are you replacing the blades?
I shave every day and change them out every month to 1.5 months
Just ordered mine can’t wait to use it
Congrats!
You find it makes a difference if you wet shave with cream or dry shave?
Not really, it’s more ease of use really. If you have dry skin then wet shaving is easier.
I like it only issue I have is it won’t cut around ears well. Like close to side burn. I have to use a razor.
Depending on how the hair grows you can take the razor at different angles. I can get it close but still need a razor to get 100%

Next time run it in a bowl of water
Just tried it and it's okay for maintenance on the go but would rather shave regularly. Isn't as smooth as I like but it is a close shave
Same here. Usually I’ll go over the top of my head afterwards with a razor if I want it really smooth. It gets the rest really smooth though.
Your shaver sounds so much more powerful than mine for some reason.
I’ve noticed when mine gets low on charge it definitely sounds less powerful.
Thanks for the honest review trying to decide between this and pit bull the warranty is much better with the freebird/freedom
You’re welcome! I’m still using mine, I have no complaints at all.
How often is it necessary to replace the blades?
It really depends on how often you use the mower but usually they’ll need sharpening twice per season or after 25 hours of use to keep your blades in good shape
@@Mc88Flyy isn't the replacement head $29.95 each?
The whole razer with charger and 'free accessories' is selling now for $59.95.
Haha sorry I thought you commented on my lawn mower vid. Yeah I think the blades are good for something like 50 shaves
You don’t clean it out with the brush? I feel like if I just run it under the water it’s not clean. Haha
Nah, I use hot water and it gets 99% of it
Defo needs one, where can I get one bro

Thanks my boy ,your review saved me from buy it
Sweet Thank you!!
These shavers work better with shaving cream
Thanks for the review! Lookimg for something like this for my husband. I think this is the ONE!
You’re very welcome! You can also get new blades that just pop in, sent to you on any type of recurring schedule. They last 55 or so shaves. Hope he likes it!
@carpeja3 thanks for the info!! I'm sure he will and so will I since I'm the one who usually shaves his head. 😁
Just got one and it's ok not great ,good for on the go
It’s a solid 7/10
I just got mine and then it got really quiet and stopped cutting hair
I think you have to charge it for a bit before use.

I'm lazy and I'm considering going bald. This would be the perfect product for me if I do that lol
They’re trying to be “slick” haha and throw that $24.95 every 6 weeks in there. That’s not cool that you can’t opt out of that.
For some reason, these electric razors chew me up something serious. I wish they didn't because they're so convenient.
That is odd, I’ve never nicked myself. I think their actually not supposed to either. Maybe it was just the one you had?

Doesn't work threw it away first use
