Yesterday I had a live interview on Breakfast with Millsy and Tony Mac in Perth, Australia.  The topic of the interview was why guys like myself and Tony Mac shave their heads.  You can listen to the interview here -

I have been trying out Manumission Shave Gel by Fightceuticals, Inc and let me tell you that it packs a punch!

When I first opened the tube I was pleasantly shocked at the citrus scent that filled the air.  I immediately thought, "I really hope the shave lives up to the smell."

I then squeezed about a dime size amount into my hand, lathered it up, and rubbed it on my dome.  With the first stroke I could tell that Manumission Shave Gel was going to rival popular head shaving brands.  

The shave gel is one of the first shave gels that I've tried that provided a very slick shave and offered great protection against burn and cuts.  Usually shave gels and creams provide one or the other.  This is all done with key ingredients such as:

    Allantoin
    Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice (Aloe Vera)
    Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Oil
    Glycerin
    Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil
    Menthol
    Tocpheryl Acetate (Vitamin E)

While this product wasn't created specifically for the head shaver, I recommend that every head shaver give it a try once, especially if you have a  problem with irritation.

Mike Strobel of the Toronto Sun poses that question to his readers in his humorous column.  You can read a few excerpts below, but make sure you check out the article to see who got quoted...

After all, for two centuries, Toronto voters have accepted a motley mayoral mob of thugs, traitors, cons, Bible-thumpers, syphilitic weirdos and lawyers and David Miller.

But are we open to a chrome-dome?

"Weaves, transplants, comb-overs and rugs don’t count. Even if they are only suspected.

I mean Stephen Harper keeps getting elected prime minister — and his hair hasn’t moved an inch in about 15 years.

No, I’m talking shorn, shaved, shiny pates. Like mine, for instance."

Admittedly, a bald mayor carries risks.

When he tosses his hat in the ring, he might get sunburn. He drives TV cameramen crazy, especially on bright days. Faithful followers can go blind. (With those teeth, Rossi is a double threat.)

Looking for an electric razor to shave your head with?  Conair has now released the CleanHead Rechargeable Head Groomer.  According to Conair's website, this electric razor does the following:

"CleanHead™ is specifically designed for clean and ultra-close cuts. The
patent-pending, angled shaving head technology includes comfort rollers
that guide the shaving foils along the contours of the head for the
most effective cutting. The universal soft grip fits comfortably in the
palm of the hand, enabling the user to shave with either hand in any
direction."

You can learn more about the razor by going to the site http://www.iKnowHeads.com.

To date no one here at Sly Bald Guys has tried out the CleanHead, but if you have or are interested in giving it a try, you can get one at Amazon.com.
