Does anyone know of a good matte lotion other then Head Blades'?
Does anyone have an answer for this one? Preferably on option for all of us living on the east side of the pond!
Just asking as I am naturally shiny, and find that the florescent lights at work really make my head beam. Want to try out a matte style for a few days if possible but don't know what to use...

I maybe partial (since I started the company :)) but give Matte For Men a try...it will eliminate the shine you dont want. it doesn't go overboard...does it in a natural way...thats why I developed it.

If you've got it, flaint it. As shiny as possible! #!@!

I've been firmly stuck in the 'matte' contingent ... but yesterday tried 'shiny' and that was quite awesome. I feel a change of affiliation coming on ... All shine, all the time.

I actually prefer a matte look 95% of the time, but of course shiny is fun once in a while. I don't do it with that headlube gloss lotion, though. That stuff makes my head feel gross.

 I am with you about the lotion. My head is naturally shiny and when I've tried the headlube to try the matte look, it just made it all nasty feeling. I sometimes use baby powder to dull down the shine from time to time

Thanks for the tips guys. I'll give some of them a try, but am actually coming round to the shiny look now.  :)
Think I was just against it because I got a negative comment about the shine from someone at work the first day after shaving for the first time.

Lately I've just been shaving. If it's sunny I then apply some suntan lotion otherwise just let it be.
