Hey, Liquid/Jon:
Welcome back! I admit I try get on the site every day, but due to life I miss a day here and there.
Sometimes, too many passes and/or products can do more harm than good. From your pictures, I see a little redness, but other than that you look like you do a nice job on your head to say that you're Bald by choice. Nothing wrong with experimenting, but eventually I think you should settle on a primary razor and use the others only in emergency/pressed for time situations. Maybe you should invest in some Sea Breeze instead of basic aftershave, your skin may not take certain aftershaves well. For example, my scalp cannot handle Old Spice or Brut aftershave. Further, hair tends to be strongest in the back but to shave in opposite directions multiple times may be a bit too much. When you suffer breakouts, Tend Skin, although a little pricey, is the best product, IMO, to make bumps on the back of the neck and head clear up. Sea Breeze is a good cleaner and a good alternative to traditional aftershaves.
P.S. Run-don't walk-Run away from any shaving product sold at Dollar General. I know we like to save a few $$$, but sometimes it's not worth it
PPS...Congrats to you and the Mrs on the little one!
