new sly guy here
« on: March 11, 2010, 09:08:44 AM »
Hey all I been reading up on tips and pointers to start shaving my head, you guys really know your stuff so I had to join up :D
 I am 20 years old and live in Vermont USA, been sly about 9 days now and enjoying it
It very cold up here in the winter so I'm rarely outside w/out a hat so naturally my head gets rather pale in the winter, and I wondering if anyone knows of a good sun screen that will protect my head, but also get it a bit tanned.  I'm guessing like something around 15spf would be good? but I don't know much about bald heads and sunscreen so maybe that is bad? any info much appreciated
Anyway I'm proud to be sly and a part of your group, and I'm well on my way to that first 30 day mark! :D

Welcome to the SBGs Xan! A nice finish for your newly smoothed dome can be achieved with Jergens Natural Glow Healthy Complexion. This is a non-greasy facial moisturizer with an SPF 20 sunscreen that also gradually imparts a nice color as well.

Edit: Apply it to your face as well so that there is a nice blend between your head, neck and face.

Sunscreen are good, definitely good.  The choice of spf depends essentially on two things, first, are you fair skinned or do you tan easily.  The other factor is the sun strength and whether there are other sources of burning rays, i.e. off snow.  It's best not to burn so error on the high side.  Average, IMO, would be 30spf.

Welcome Xan -- way to take charge!   You're surely an inspiration to other young guys out there who are agonizing over hair loss.   Keep us posted on your progress!

Welcome.

I live in the deep south and I tan pretty easy.  So I tend to use a lower spf.
