I get the best results for that type of irritation from Nivea Sensitive Skin After Shave Balm. Maybe something with aloe would be helpful?

I'll try and get some as soon as I get some money, I've been using neosporin and it seems to be helping.

I'd stop using the Bald Guyz, if fact, I have!

I've been using Nivea For Men Sensitive Post Shave Balm instead and have had great results!   O0

Here is a picture of the back of my head, washing my head with soap does seem to help, but my head looks worse after using Bald Guyz moisturizer. :(



Dude,I get irritation too,but it's nothing compared to what you have.
It looks really bad.(Looks like a rash)
Have you considered going to a dermatologist?

If you can't beat them,Shave them.....

That was literally like 10 minutes after I shaved and after I put on Bald Guyz moisturizer. I've been washing my head and using neosporin and it's getting a lot better. I'm going to try and get some Nivea aftershave, since it's been recommended twice. If that doesn't seem to help I will consider seeing a dermatologist, the only problem though is that my insurance isn't the best and I'm already seeing two specialists for my OCD.

In Israel it's a lot cheaper to get a Health Insurance.(most of it is public medicine)
It's a mandatory tax we pay,in order to be covered,not like in the US.

That looks quite sore my friend, i would recomend NIVIEA FOR MEN EXTREME COMFORT AFTER SHAVE BALM, this is anti irritation, it costs a little bit more than the NIVIA SENSITIVE AFTER SHAVE BALM but is a good product :@` :@` :@`

I'm actually really surprised, Nivea Sensitive postshave balm has cleared it all up. You can't see the irritation anymore, but there is a little bit you can feel, I'm confident though that the stuff I've got will correct that.

I also think that my Headblade was irritating my head. I've been using a cheap 3 blade disposing razor and the shave feels closer and there isn't that much irritation (the Nivea fixes it though. I think I get the irritation because I am so through on the back of my head)

Glad the NIVIA SENSATIVE BALM has cleared it up, these are  good products, the NIVIA EXTREME COMFORT after shave balm is even better, when you need to replace try this one :@` :@` :@`

Bradley,

Check out the "CUSTOM PLUS 3" disposable razor thread below!
http://www.slybaldguys.com/smf/index.php?topic=12894.0

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ALTERNATIVE to the HeadBlade that will give you a QUALITY, COMFORTABLE,  CLOSE SHAVE WITHOUT the HIGH COST of replacement blades!!

IMPORTANT: When/if purchasing this brand of disposables, make sure you get the CUSTOM PLUS 3 version of the razors and NOT the plain Custom Plus version! See the thread above for details!!

If you would like to use the C+3 blade on your HeadBlade razor, you need to attach the BLACK ADAPTER, or you can just use the razor as is!
 
...Also...Continue using the Nieva skin balm as a finish to your shaving session! Great product that works EXTREMELY WELL in helping to control/combat shaving irritation! I use it often!!

Hope this bit of info helps!!

PS: Looking back at all your posts on this subject matter, it really seems as if you are allergic to some ingredient in the BG moisturizer! You mentioned quite a few times in your postings that the irritation seemed to flare up RIGHT AFTER you applied the BG product!!
