Hi guys, I liked this thing a lot, I will try to work my magic with Remington and see if we can get some discount sorted for anyone who wants to purchase the RX5. After this first look review I definitely prefer it over the other well known similar product. This thing is also significantly cheaper. If you are too excited and just want to grab one I have included a link for the guys in the UK. It seems that unfortunately this product is difficult to find in the US maybe someone can help out with a link in the comments section if they know where to get it. Bald Head Butter has flown off the shelves (Thank You) But there will be a full restock very very soon. Make sure you follow @Baldcafe on Instagram to get all the realtime updates. Thank you all for watching and I wish you all well! 😃
I purchased this about 2 weeks ago from Argos, seems to be selling really well as it’s sold out in most places now, gives a great head shave. I use this as a back up to my wet shave, still prefer the blade for that close shave, the RX5 however I can recommend highly it’s great for when I don’t have time for a wet shave..and Baldcafe’s bald head butter is the perfect compliment to finish the shave. Great video Harry! Thought this would be up soon. Keep these great review videos coming.
Thanks for a great second opinion. Completely agree with you there. The wet shave will always be the holy grail for me too but this was the first time I used one of these head shavers and found them very comparable. Really enjoyed using it.
As a newly “brave man due to your channel” I’ve been trying all kinds of these products out. This was next on the list since it’s the #1 rated electric razor in 2023. With your review I will definitely try it!
I purchased this recently it’s the best one I’ve tryed so far . Most minimal irritation close to none . But gettin the hair on the sides by my ears is seeming to be the only issue . Other wise zero complaints good product for the money spent
if you still have thick hair on the back and sides its more like a 15 min shave to get it smooth and several passes with cleaning the blades in between, also remington doesnt sell replacement blades for it anymore
@@penguinproductions7014 this shaver is good I do use it every day it's jut that it takes longer than 2 minutes even when done every day, I do recommend it tho
@@penguinproductions7014 This might sound weird, but hair conditioner is better than any shaving foam imo. It's really ironic that a product that is meant to maintain long hair healthy and smooth is usable for such manners, but it really does work like a charm.
I bought both the rx5 and the quick cut and they're amazing. It was worth the hour and 20 minute que to get into argos. Great product and we'll worth the money, thanks for the good review 😁
Hey, now you tried the rx5 and the pitpull shaver. Which one do you prefer? Im on the way to try one of these too. But dont know which one to choose. Hoping for your response. :)
I brought this yesterday and works perfectly. Takes me longer than 2 minutes unlike what the box says and a tiny bit noisy but still a good product. Would recommend.
Dude thanks for posting all of your videos! I recently shaved off my hair and entered the bald men world. Happy to own it, but was nervous to do it. Subscribed. ✌🏼
Baldcafe Thank you! Looking forward to continue watching your videos. Your videos to your fans played a role in helping me make this decision quicker. I’m currently on day 6 since my first shave. I’m already noticing the gap of hair on my scalp. My baldness pattern is almost identical to yours based off your videos. I’m looking to shave probably every 2-3 days. Cheers from Texas! ✌🏼
Tell Remington I want one! They unfortunately are not selling them yet here in US... great videos and advice! Thanks for giving me the motivation and confidence to shave my head! Look forward to more videos.
Just got one today because my mate recommended it , used it tonight and it’s awesome, paid £50.00 for it off Amazon which is amazing, as it’s £68.00 everywhere else as I speak lol
Hey baldcafe and friends, I just bought this product. Very happy about it! but, I am wondering for the future: what do I need to buy for replacement blades? I see once a year given by remington... but, I see different brands of blades (remington 30 euro and others 10 euro). experiences?
these electric head shavers surprisingly seem to work better without shaving cream. Just rub some water on your head and you're good to go. The key is immediately moisturizing after the shave. The head butter is great but I also like the badger hair oil as a post-shave conditioner.
Awesome shaver. Use square tip screwdriver #1 under hot water to clean heads after use and apply oil. If you don't clean well, will shutdown when trying to use next time. Recommend warm yo hot water rinse.
It does a really good job! I’ve used it once and loved it…..except for the irritation on my lower neck which was quite full on 😬 Maybe I went too low or was too vigorous with it. Will see how we go for shave number two 👍
@@mike_t_007 it didn’t last long at all. I haven’t had any since the first few shaves 👍 I’ve gone from shaving every 2 days to every day and still nothing. It’s going good! 🙂
So I had one for about a week and it was working fine. It was plugged in, charging, when the power went out for about 45 minutes. When it came back on, the battery was shot. Only works now if plugged in.
Looks to work great, but if I have to pre shave my head to use it, after only a week's growth, I might as well just take it the whole way down on the first shave.
Great news! I spoke to Remington and was told this will be available in the US on 9/1/20 and will be called the XR7000 in the US. Definitely going to pick one up!
@@davidsmith6669 I don't know for sure, the rep from Remington didn't mention. However, I would think so because Amazon seems to carry most of their other products and their short cut pro clippers are one of Amazon's best selling items right now.
I bought the Remington RX5 and thought it was ok, just bought the Babyliss Titanium Pro, had 3 days of growth, took longer but a much smoother finish, have you tried this?
Can’t find replacement blades for it here in the UK. I like the product but I’ve just realised I made a massive mistake because I can’t find replacement blades for it.
After using this product can you feel stubble or does your head feel smooth like when using a razor? Thanks love watching your content and also purchased one of your head butter which is brilliant 😁
Mikey Loveridge I would describe it as something in between. 0.1mm. Probably something like 8hrs after a wet razor shave if that makes sense. The razor will cut the hair slightly below the skins surface where as this will take it down to the skin. It’s very very adequate with this thing I’d say 👍 And thank you so much for supporting the Bald Head Butter I love it and I’m glad you do too thank you 🙏
Great video! Just became a fan of your reviews. Would you consider doing comparisons? Would love to one done between this Remington RX5 versus the Skullshaver Pitbull Silver or Gold shaver. And/or these two versus the Andis Profoil Lithium Shaver . Maybe your thoughts on using rotary versus foil shavers for the noggin?
Hey Baldcafe, sorry to ask the question if you have already done so but what is your thoughts between the Rx5 and Pitbull? I'm tossing up between the two :) thanks for all the reviews mate!
I have been using this Remington for a couple of months now and im quite pleased with it. Im thinking of buying a Braun series 9 for a closer shave, has anyone tried both and can give some input?
Hi love your videos , not sure which one to for go for I like a very clean cut like yourself, shall I go for the Remington one in this video or the Phillips one blade thanks
Hi I been trying to find the ideal head shaver in the United States, seeing you’re video I am convinced this is one of the best. Could you suggest something as good available in the US? As well as a head butter that is comparable in the US? Much thanks
Looks like it cut closer then the skull shaver pitbull but also didn't make the back of your neck red either. They may have a winner here, I'm going to have to check it out. Really looking forward to the follow up review. I'm usually using a Braun series 3 foil shaver for my head but would consider changing. Beard is on point man!
MGTOW Lite Thank you 👍 I was trying to find a fun way to put it together rather than just shaving my head for a collective 30 minutes. I’ll do my best 😆
Loving the channel mate! The RX5 is sold out everywhere online, Argos appear to be the only place stocking but no availability currently. If you get a line on any of these please let us know :-)
Hi after years of indecision and going from a number 1 to a 0 finally took the plunge and bought one of these Remington RX5, used it today and can't believe how close it cuts and how much difference there is between a 0, only problem is that my head feels sore in places what should I apply to take the soreness away and is it better to use it wet with shaving gel ? The Bald Head butter is out of stock so any other suggestions
Hi…great video…I would like to ease into head shaving….whats a good clipper to get down to …say 10 to 6 milimetre or even to 2 mil first…something more precise than the crude limited one I have
Damn, looking good! I never like how these electric razors irritate my skin, and that they don't really get that close (compared to a wet shave). I might actually get this - the way it's actually build for head shaving is incredibly appealing. Normal electric razors are a pain to use, so I always end up using my razor. I think I'll try and order one of these as soon as they are back in stock, and the paycheck rolls in. Thanks for this video, and keep up your motivational videos. Being bald has never been sexier.
Great comment thank you 👍 I was in the same boat as you but this one is genuinely the best. I used it again tonight and managed a shave in 2.2 mins 👍 Really impressed by it so far and the price is pretty good too!
@@Baldcafe Thanks for your reply! Great to hear it's also great off-camera. Had a nice wet shave tonight, but it's just real nice to have different options to shave, whether it's to save time or just for comfort. Keep it up!
For anyone in the USA buying this, make sure to also get a European to USA plug adapter...did not realize that the plug would be European and now I can't plug it into my wall lol. Good thing is that Amazon has em for like 5 bucks. The shaver works well
Wow. I will have to hope for a good month views wise 😂 Quite expensive. Next on my list for expensive ones in the Braun series 9, then we'll do the 9000 👍
really interested in buying this but every other day seems a bit annoying for me to keep up.. would live if i could use it straight in the 1 week growth
just a quickie pal - how do u compare this one to xr1400 ? performance wise . The xr1400 i can get it for like 35 quid and this one for about 60 , does it worth the money difference ? been very happy with xr1400 ( 3 of them by now , but after a year or so the blades go blunt and replacements are hard and expensive to find , so i rather just buy another one ) cheers !
I’m really thinking about shaving my head iv got a receding hairline but I use my long fringe to hide it but it’s always annoying me I don’t no if I’d regret shaving it off I was literally gonna do it an hour ago and bottled it should I just do it ?
Matty McLoughlin You absolutely should just go for it my man. If the long fringe set up is annoying you then you’ll be glad to see the back of it with a nice clean head shave 👍
I do have thick hair on top just bad hairline which makes my fringe go to a point it doesn’t grow as much on either side of my fringe I’m constantly pushing it to one side I suppose it will grow if I don’t like it if i shave
Matty McLoughlin I was in the same boat as you about 3 weeks ago, I went for it and now love it, I didn’t like it at first and that’s only because it was a big change, once you get used to it you’ll love it, I get compliments all the time saying that it suit me me and to be honest I’m literally so happy I did it, no more worries, not constantly worried about the wind and no more bed head, I went swimming the other day for the first time in years too! My hair wasn’t even that bad just slightly balding so I could grow it back in a wanted to but I don’t want to now.
Kieran Schwar iv just done it I feel better I was the same sick of the bed head every morning and the wind blowing my fringe about it’s gonna take abit getting used to but I feel better already
@@Baldcafe Thanks! Preparing to take the plunge! Think I’ll get the RX5 to start with as it looks like an easy introduction into headshaving, and then I’ll see if I progress to shaving with my Harry’s razor that I currently use on my face! Is 0.2mm the equivalent of about half a days growth?
If you prepare your head as if you were doing a wet shave (hot towel over the head) and use a pre -shave oil/balm (i use a proraso pre-shave), you can get it really close. I get pretty much baby smooth on the back of my head and only feel the hair on the top when i feel it against the grain. I also found if you keep your head wet, you dont get that stop/start issue (i previously didnt have this issue but as the unit got older it started doing this). Just make sure you maintain it well. I use a tooth brush to clean it, rinse it under water at high pressure and spray it with razor oil/shaver guard after each use.
Those products cause bumps i use elegance shave gel and a disposable razor gets the job done elegance shave gel is the smoothest no irritation shave try it
Nice video mate, you sold out of Bald Head Butter mate would love to buy some. Also what do you think of the skull shaver now?? as I heard bad things about them.
Fantastic review as always, the dry shave looked nice & close, should've done the wet shave too & if you've done it please let us know. Now between skull shaver & this one I guess you recommend the Remington? at least in both the reviews the Remington performance looks much better than skull shaver. Thank you, totally appreciate it.
Been looking at something like this for myself and wondered what would you think is the best electric head shaver value for money what would be your top 3 you’d recommend
Is this shaver closer than the phillips One Blade? So far, I haven't found an electric shaver that gives a closer shave than the one blade without getting out the razor blade.
Good little gadget. I want to get a low shave too but the straight razor is a pain in the ass and an irritant.. side note.. does anyone know what song is playing at 2:20 ?
Bald Head Butter is back in stock guys! 👍 bald-cafe.myshopify.com/
Hey baldcafe, given this stuff is frequently out of stock, do you have any other recommendations?

@@MagsWH That's kind of the whole idea of this.......to Not use water or cream.......
Dr Kevorkian never heard of it but I have now so let me see what’s up 👍
Dr Kevorkian at a first glance it looks like a very standard set of clippers. Wahl make quality products though 👍
I am interested.
Yo! Watched your review here and bought the headshaver. Its AMAZING, thanks man! :D
Will it accidentally cut ur long hair off?
Reminton have the best blades for the money!

Hi guys, do you know how often do you need to replace the head? And where buy it form? Thank you
As a newly “brave man due to your channel” I’ve been trying all kinds of these products out. This was next on the list since it’s the #1 rated electric razor in 2023. With your review I will definitely try it!
Hope you like it! I think it performs well in many areas and is reasonably priced. Welcome to the team 👍
I can't get over how close this shaves - really happy!
It’s a good bit of kit ay. Enjoy it! 👍
I purchased this recently it’s the best one I’ve tryed so far . Most minimal irritation close to none . But gettin the hair on the sides by my ears is seeming to be the only issue . Other wise zero complaints good product for the money spent
I just got my dreads cut off and now I'm bald like I've always wanted this helps a lot thank u
Hi i tried the buzz cut today because of my hairline and i must say what a releave thx mate 👍
if you still have thick hair on the back and sides its more like a 15 min shave to get it smooth and several passes with cleaning the blades in between, also remington doesnt sell replacement blades for it anymore
Is it best to just go for it and use a razor with foam? Or is there an electric that does the job? Cheers in advance 👍🏻
@@penguinproductions7014 this shaver is good I do use it every day it's jut that it takes longer than 2 minutes even when done every day, I do recommend it tho

Thank you!!
I bought this 7 weeks ago and it has stopped working, Argos have agreed to replace it so I hope the next one lasts!
The best,thing,about Remington is all you have to do is call,there customer service,and they will send you replacement blades customer

How do you wash/sanitise this? And do you need to replace the head/blades often?
Those clippers look cool

Bald by choice got mine today other vivatar I had broke. It really took 2 minutes. Pretty crazy.
I love this machine. Best shave in years.
This thing rips my neck to pieces. I’ve tried everything I can think of, I’m hoping my skin will eventually adapt.
Mine got dull in a year of use. Can’t find replacement blades. Back to headblades again.

Ditto
Can you use it on your face too, like I don’t want to have to get two product
Awesome review today
Thank you. Still enjoying this shaver and will have an update review coming soon.
Hey Baldcafe, sorry to ask the question if you have already done so but what is your thoughts between the Rx5 and Pitbull? I'm tossing up between the two :) thanks for all the reviews mate!
I want an answer on this too... it's like Google has banned people comparing them haha
I have been using this Remington for a couple of months now and im quite pleased with it. Im thinking of buying a Braun series 9 for a closer shave, has anyone tried both and can give some input?
Man that seems to work a treat; and Ive gotta say your looking fly after that head shave.
Hazza Sazza Thank you! 👍 it’s a great bit of kit.
I've had one for nearly 2 years now, it's still great but you also have to clean between the blades as they will eventually clog up with small hairs.
Hi love your videos , not sure which one to for go for I like a very clean cut like yourself, shall I go for the Remington one in this video or the Phillips one blade thanks
So, I have seen your review of this shaver and the Skull Shaver Gold. Which of the two do you prefer? Which gets the closer shave?
Love your videos. Have you done a comparison between the Remington RX5, the Bad Head LK 1800, the Pitbull Gold, and the Freedom Grooming FlexSeries?
Will try it

Great video, just ordered one, also a very affordable price!
It will never ever beat razor but I can see your are trying so I will give you a like to help you.
So I love my baldie but not a skin bald, razor shave as it seems the rotary shaver is giving you so should I maybe stick with the clippers?
This unit? Or the skullshaver with the new style blades? That's the question before I pull the trigger 😅
Looks like it cut closer then the skull shaver pitbull but also didn't make the back of your neck red either. They may have a winner here, I'm going to have to check it out. Really looking forward to the follow up review. I'm usually using a Braun series 3 foil shaver for my head but would consider changing. Beard is on point man!

I do have thick hair on top just bad hairline which makes my fringe go to a point it doesn’t grow as much on either side of my fringe I’m constantly pushing it to one side I suppose it will grow if I don’t like it if i shave
Matty McLoughlin shave it brother. Just go for it. Grow some beard (if you can) then shave your head when you’ve got some beard length
Matty McLoughlin I was in the same boat as you about 3 weeks ago, I went for it and now love it, I didn’t like it at first and that’s only because it was a big change, once you get used to it you’ll love it, I get compliments all the time saying that it suit me me and to be honest I’m literally so happy I did it, no more worries, not constantly worried about the wind and no more bed head, I went swimming the other day for the first time in years too! My hair wasn’t even that bad just slightly balding so I could grow it back in a wanted to but I don’t want to now.
Kieran Schwar iv just done it I feel better I was the same sick of the bed head every morning and the wind blowing my fringe about it’s gonna take abit getting used to but I feel better already
Can you pleaseeeee answer which is better or closer shave...this or the pitbull gold
Are you still using this, and if so, why not?
How close is a wet shave compared to this?
this shaves to like 0.2 as opposed to 0. I'm not using it because I gave it to a friend who used and loves it now.
@@Baldcafe Thanks! Preparing to take the plunge!
Think I’ll get the RX5 to start with as it looks like an easy introduction into headshaving, and then I’ll see if I progress to shaving with my Harry’s razor that I currently use on my face!
Is 0.2mm the equivalent of about half a days growth?
If you prepare your head as if you were doing a wet shave (hot towel over the head) and use a pre -shave oil/balm (i use a proraso pre-shave), you can get it really close. I get pretty much baby smooth on the back of my head and only feel the hair on the top when i feel it against the grain.
I also found if you keep your head wet, you dont get that stop/start issue (i previously didnt have this issue but as the unit got older it started doing this).
Just make sure you maintain it well. I use a tooth brush to clean it, rinse it under water at high pressure and spray it with razor oil/shaver guard after each use.
Those products cause bumps i use elegance shave gel and a disposable razor gets the job done elegance shave gel is the smoothest no irritation shave try it
Nice video mate, you sold out of Bald Head Butter mate would love to buy some. Also what do you think of the skull shaver now?? as I heard bad things about them.
Do you have any similar products you would recommend that are sold in the US? Any idea if or when the rx5 will be sold in the US? Such a bummer!
I'm wondering the same thing, looks like a pretty good shaver but can't find it here in the US :(
@@nsauceda35 I ended up going with a skull shaver pro gold, it gets pretty damn close to this
Great 9ne Harry keep it up
Adrian Waugh Cheers Adrian glad you liked this razor too 👍
Fantastic review as always, the dry shave looked nice & close, should've done the wet shave too & if you've done it please let us know.
Now between skull shaver & this one I guess you recommend the Remington? at least in both the reviews the Remington performance looks much better than skull shaver. Thank you, totally appreciate it.
Hey mate, can you please review the VS Crew Cut Elite.
Cracking video mate but I still ain't convinced. I want one that can replicate my old fashioned wet shave with a razor. Still a terrific video mind.
Been looking at something like this for myself and wondered what would you think is the best electric head shaver value for money what would be your top 3 you’d recommend
Is this shaver closer than the phillips One Blade? So far, I haven't found an electric shaver that gives a closer shave than the one blade without getting out the razor blade.
I am going to say ever so slightly closer but I'd really be splitting hairs pardon the pun.
Good little gadget. I want to get a low shave too but the straight razor is a pain in the ass and an irritant.. side note.. does anyone know what song is playing at 2:20 ?
Hi! Great review! Do you or anyone else know where to buy replacement heads online?
The remington website or shavershop.com.au (an australian store, they may ship overseas).
