New to bald
« on: April 21, 2011, 11:14:32 PM »
Hi, all.  I come from a family of bald people, but I have all this hair.  I've buzzed for 20 years (to save money on haircuts.  My question:  I bought an electric head shaver.  I know it takes a while to get used to.  I bought this shaver razor that looks  like a 3 wheeled bike which works better.  Which is better?  Any tips, direction to forums?  How about tanning.  Though I have a terminal ilness I don't want to look like a terminal patiend, ya know.  Thanks in advance to my new bald friends... No more bed-head.

Welcome to the Forum , Tom!

That three wheeled bike is probably the HeadBlade. This is a great tool and one I've been using foir about three years. Be careful with it at first....... it takes a few shaves to master it. Do NOT apply pressure downward as you use it.

I can't speak to the electric...... have never used one.

Welcome Tom!
Personally I swear by the HeadBlade. Check out the Head Shaving section for tips.
