Anyone here that shaves the head with a r41?
No and I never will.
I get BBS face and head shaves from razors with less blade exposure than the R41 and are a lot safer. It's going to be night and day from the 34C.
It's not about a lot of blade exposure for a good shave, it's about enough blade exposure and a rigid blade edge.
Anyone here that shaves the head with a r41? I got a nice deal on one so I bought and I will try it in the future. Still considering myself a beginner when it comes to wetshaving&headshaving so want a bit more experience before I go for it.

+1
the FTSS has considerably more curve to the blade - increasing rigidity and the angle of attack in relation to the safety bar.
^^^^^^^ I find the no date code TTO's to be better then later ones in this reguard.
....aaaaaand there goes my RAD again!

I've been using this razor for the last few days, and really loving it. I think I'm even going to call today's shave a true BBS.
Something I've recently discovered, and some of you probably already know this. I've found for the back of the head I get a closer easier shave if I bring my chin all the way down and touch it to my chest. This really stretches the skin out. I think I never discovered this because I usually already have lather on my neck. My beard is a little over 5 inches long now and I've pretty much abandoned the neck line, just a little cleanup once a week or so.
