That's a great idea. Thanks, Paul!!!
I'm applying the peroxide now man.
That should do the job.

I just don't get your gratuitous off the cuff comments!
I've been a Sly member for a least six months, but everytime I post, I get the message that you actually don't want me here.
I no longer can use a blade on my head, Dr's orders!!
Anyway, I have to make do with a Panasonic Wet/Dry Shaver.
It delivers a smooth shave, but leaves a noticeable shadow.

Hey Ben, I can assure that I want you here. As for the off the cuff comment, just trying to inject some humor, but I apologize that it didn't come across as such.
I wasn't aware that you had orders to not use a blade and were using an electric. I guess that's why you're getting the opposite effect that I am. As a formal user of an electric, I can tell you that it's going to be tough to get rid of the shadow, but Paul's suggestion may work out for ya.

I hate to be a wet blanket, but I really doubt that this will work. The shadow is caused by the roots of your hair, just below the surface of the skin. I don't think it's possible to alter its color, and even if it were, it would be almost impossible to keep up with because new growth is always going to be your natural color. I think the shadow is something you just have to live with.

The only way to get rid of the shadow is to get rid of the hair, i.e. going bald for real.
If you're not lucky enough to be naturally bald you can always tweeze out your hair,
like I did (if you wish to know more about the method www.scalptweezing.com)
Look at the before and after pics... (shaved vs tweezed)
