Getting the closet shave possible

[gregmi]

I just started to shave my head again and still get the " Velcro"  stubble at the end.  some places are totally smooth in the back , but on the top of my head and other places on my head I have that stupid mini stubble.
   I went against the grain , with the grain and still getting the " Velcro" . Any advice of getting it totally smooth?  Do not want to cut myself or rip my skin off trying to get the head totally smooth.

You've said you're using the HB. A lot of guys use them with great results, others, like me don't get such great results.  You might want to try some other weapon, like Fusion.  Also, are you scraping the grape right after waking up?  Wait at least an hour if possible.  Are you using Headslick?  Do you put it on after some oil like Shave Secret?  Have you used a scrub?  I use a loofah sponge pad--Wal-Mart about $2-3 with my shampoo. 
Then, like the answer to the age old question, "How do I get to Carnegie Hall?", it's just practice, practice, practice.  You'll find what works for you.
