Yes, read through some of the others topics such as "shave routine" or "best product for this" and things like that.
You'll find lots of opinions. And that's because nothing works the same for everyone.
Start with the basics - a blade and a cream. Personally, since day #1 I've used a HeadBlade Sport razor and their HeadSlick shave cream and am totally pleased with them. Through experimentation I found I prefer using Wilkinson Sword Twin Plus cartridges on the HeadBlade rather than the blades designed to go with it.
And if you want to explore you can read/try things like exfoliants, pre-shave oil, after shaves, moisturizers. That's part of the experience if it interests you.
And definitely post here if you have a particular problem - like red bumps seem to occur occasionally and the guys will quickly recommend solutions.
You're looking really good. Now it's just a little bit of effort to maintain and enjoy the experience of not worrying about hair. -

Welcome YSBG!
You're not the first person fir whom this site gave them the final oomph to go sly (myself included). -

Welcome!
I hope this is day #1 out of more than just 30 days because the bald look suits you really well. -

Well done, mate.
You look happy being a bald guy by choice.
How did you feel when you were removing all of your hair?
Excited? Relieved? .......
Best wishes,
Bilko -

Thanks guys! Really nice of you all to say that stuff.
I shaved it all one before, but couldn't grow a goatee back then and wore a hat for a few days.
This time I just did it in the shower and felt a little sad closing the chapter on my hair, but relieved as well.
It's really surprising how confident you feel after doing it. @c3You don't feel like you're hiding anything anymore.
It's a great feeling.

Well done. You've done the hardest part, and that is doing it the first time. Now own it! The sly look is a keeper.

Welcome to SBG. You look great and congratulations on doing the total shave. As far as products I am 5 months into it now and have found that a Headblade Sport Razor, Headslick Shave Cream, and Head Scrub to exfoliate a few times a week do the trick. As far as cleaning, I use Headblade HeadWash daily before shaving. Moisturize after each shave with Headblade Headlube to give yourself a nice shine or matte look. Enjoy your new look- you wear it well.

Thank you! I'll have to look for these things.
It's nice to have this forum with all these tips! Otherwise I'd be out on my own winging it.
Heading into day 4 and I'm starting to get the hang of the best ways to shave it. The shower definitely seems to get the closest shave for me. -

Great to hear you are on day 4 and are feeling comfortable with the routine. Shower shaving is the best easy to prep and rinse. You will look forward to the routine - 5 months into it and love it.
