Shaver FAQ

  • Can I shave wet or dry?

    If you are using original Skull Shaver then you can only do dry shave. This was our first model and it comes with the engraved name as SKULL SHAVERTM on the shaver handle/body. Our other models allow you to shave wet or dry, with or without shaving cream or foam. Pitbull, Butterfly Kiss, and Pal...

  • Can I use a different charger? What chargers can I use?

    Our shavers come with a USB charging cable so your shaver can be charged from almost any USB port, battery pack, or wall adapter that outputs 5 volts or less. DO NOT use any charging adapter that outputs more than 5 volts/1 amp! Using any other charger or exceeding those output specs will void yo...

  • Can I use the shaver with different voltages in different countries?

    All of our shavers are compatible with worldwide voltages from 120v up to 240v. You may need a physical plug adapter for different countries. Many of our shavers come with a USB charging cable so your shaver can be charged from any USB port, battery pack, or wall adapter.

  • How do I get the best shave?

    For best results, we recommend shaving in small circular motions. The rotary blades allow you to shave while moving the shaver in any direction. For the smoothest shave possible, we recommend shaving in the shower and using shaving cream or foam. The hot water and steam from the shower will help...

  • How do I reassemble my blades? They have fallen apart or I cannot get them back together after cleaning.

    To clean your blades, they do not need to be disassembled beyond unsnapping the blades from the drivetrain. Blades do not need to be disassembled down to their individual components by removing the inner white brace. If your blades have fallen apart, or been taken apart beyond what was needed, th...

  • How do the blades make my shaver work?

    Our patented blades are designed to vacuum the hair into the blade chamber as you shave allowing you to shave anytime, anywhere with no mess. What happens with old or clogged blades is that the motor will work extra hard trying to spin the blades which can cause the motor to bog down or fail comp...

  • How long does it take to get used to a new shaver?

    We recommend you allow an adaptation period of 3 weeks, during which you should shave regularly (at least 4 times per week) to allow your hair and skin to adapt to the new shaver. If you experience heavy irritation, please stop shaving to allow your skin to heal. During this period, use your new ...

  • How long does the shaver work on one charge?

    A Pitbull Silver or Butterfly Kiss shaver will last approximately 60 minutes on a single charge. Other models like Pitbull Gold and Pitbull Platinum should last for 90 minutes when fully charged. This is normally good for up to 30 days of cordless shaving, depending on the size of shaving areas, ...

  • How long does the shaving head last?

    Depending on the frequency and volume of shaving, as well as the thickness of your hair, on average we recommend you replace your blade every 3-6 months.

  • Is it safe to charge my shaver while it is wet? Or should I dry it completely before charging?

    Please fully dry your shaver before charging.

  • Is the shaver adjustable, or does it only shave down to the skin? Will it leave any stubble?

    Our Pitbull, Palm, and Butterfly Kiss shavers are not adjustable. They only leave a smooth shave down to the skin. The Beast Clippers are adjustable and will leave a little stubble at their closest setting. The stubble length can be adjusted to shorter or longer with a Beast Clipper.

  • Should I use shaving foam, gel, or oil? Which is recommended for a wet shave?

    We recommend shaving gel, foam, or cream over shaving oil. Shaving oil can build up in the blades and become difficult to clean. As a result, shaving oil should not be used in any 5 head blade. You can use shaving oil with the 3 or 4 head PRO blades, but they should be thoroughly cleaned from ti...

  • Which blade is best for me? What's the difference between blades?

    There are 3 types of blades. The Carver, Forte and Baron. The Carver is recommended for coarse hair, the Forte for most users, and the Baron for sensitive skin and/or fine hair. All of them give a great shave but the comfort level changes depending on your personal preference and skin type. Ther...
