So I just started shaving my head completely. It's day 2 and I'm a bit worried. I got the bump fighter razor because I needed to avoid any razor burn and definitely razor bumps at the back of my head. So far I don't have any bumps but my head feels weird. Very sensitive, and I'm kinda nervous since I need to shave again tonight. Trying to shave every other day, and stick with this for at least 30 days. Anybody have some advice on what to do? I guess my skin is trying to toughen up or something, I don't know. Been lurking around here for a few days when I decided to do this thing full time.
Any suggestions or help would be great, especially in aftercare.
It would help as far as expectations. What stages can I expect my head to go through. I'm African American, so I'm deathly afraid of the nasty razor bump look. The bump fighter razor works amazing on my face and around my goatee, but I'm really wondering how my head will react and how long it will take to toughen up to get used to the every other day shave.
Note: I tried to shave my head once before, with a mach 3. Maybe 2 years ago. The back of my head got those nasty bumps and I decided that it was not for me. Prior to my recent shave I use Wahl balding clippers for the super close buzz cut, which probably looks like 3 to 4 days growth from being fully shaved. I guess I just wanted the ultimate clean look. Hopefully this bald shaving goes well and doesn't elude me.
Help a brotha out!!
