March Notes: Finding the best electric shaver for bald men

At March our aim is simple. Identify the tools that serve bald men best. Most electric head shavers are built without any consideration for aesthetics or restraint. Heavy shapes. Loud graphics and skull motifs that try to compensate for average engineering. The Remington RX7 positions itself as the sensible alternative. It looks controlled, it packs cleanly, and it avoids the visual noise that defines this category.

Test 1. Remington RX7 Ultimate Series Head Shaver

TLDR

  • Better looking than most competitors.
  • Avoids the usual graphic clichés in this category.
  • The flick-out trimmer is genuinely useful and removes the need to travel with clippers.
  • Strong value at $99.

Design and Handling

The RX7 has a compact profile and a calmer design language. It feels less aggressive than the Pitbull, which remains one of the most recognised head shavers but also one of the least refined. The RX7 sits comfortably in the palm. The five rotary heads track across the scalp with reasonable precision, and the device moves quickly through a full shave. Speed is its clearest strength.

Where it falls short is tactile refinement. The body feels light and lacks the solidity expected of a tool used daily. Although it looks more considered than the Pitbull, it does not feel as robust in hand.

Shave Performance

The RX7 produces a clean, even finish. The result sits in the very short stubble range rather than a true smooth scalp. For me, this is enough. It reads as deliberate and well-kept. For a super-smooth finish, you will still need a foil shaver or a razor.

The RX7 performs best as a maintenance tool. When used daily or every other day, it stays efficient and predictable. Longer growth slows the heads and reduces performance.

What I Loved

  • A restrained and more thoughtful design than most alternatives.
  • Less aggressive in appearance than the Pitbull.
  • Fast, efficient, and suited to tight routines.
  • The flick-out trimmer is practical and reduces travel clutter (no need to bring a set of clippers on a short trip)

What I Did Not Love

  • The overall build feels flimsy.
  • The charger should be USB-C.
  • The accessory case feels like an afterthought.
  • It feels less robust in the hand than the Pitbull despite its cleaner aesthetic.

March Verdict

The RX7 is a sensible option for men who want a clean, efficient maintenance shave without the loud styling common in this category. It is discreet, capable, and easy to use. It keeps the head tidy with minimal effort. It is not a premium object, and it does not aim to be. For men who shave often and want a consistent result without complication, it earns its place in the kit.
