Considering shaving my head bald! Should I do it?

[mrzed]

Very nice. Looks good on you. Hope you enjoy the new look.

Concerning concerns with razor shaving, consider these points.

When starting out, take it easy. Shave WITH the grain.  Don't press too hard. Don't aim for a super smooth feel just yet.

After a week or so of daily shaving, if no irritation issues arise, again, start out shaving WTG but follow up with Against the Grain. Again, don't scrape your head sore, just pass over in the other direction.  Give that a week of daily shaving.

Gradually increase the pressure of the razor for the closeness of shave desired and to avoid razor burn. 

Do follow up your shaves with after treatment. Witchhazel, a head lube (like from Nivea or Head Blade).  It's like a hand cream for your head.  After shave (recommend Pinaud Clubman).  Some use bump patrol and could comment on how that helps.

Thanks for posting the pictures.

My verdict: You're nearly bald so just get your head shaved. You will love the feel & look. Don't worry about what others may or may not think or say. It's your head, your choice, and becoming a cool baldy is a great choice.

Go for it & let us know about your experience & how you feel about it.

I kinda want to, but the only thing I'm worried about is people at work/school asking me why and having weird reactions.

Everybody worries about that.  Don't let it deter you.  You would be surprised at how many people won't say anything at all.

Nice clippershave, now go for the razorshave.

You suit the clipper-shave, bro. You will definitely suit a nice head shave.
Next time you are at the barbers (which should be soon), just ask for a full razor shave.

You will love it. Don't worry about others reactions or lack of them.
The barber should help you with advice about how to prevent razor burn & bumps etc if you ask him/her.

All the best.
