Shiny head, how to get it?
« on: November 27, 2012, 10:32:36 PM »

Shaving my head bald is fine, but I'm aiming for that shiny finish touch. How to get it?
Suggestions?

Believe it or not, try sunscreen. Banana Boat spray with "Dri-Block" SPF 30 works great on a freshly shaved head. Apply and let it sit then wipe off excess. Shines like glass!

I believe it, Rob6. Been doing it for awhile...and what the others suggested are good too.

A cold rinse and Head Lube glossy. I like to do a good scrub with St. Ives before shaving also....I think that helps the shine

Do you just use cold water?  I use Head Clear then Head Lube Glossy.

Perhaps also try an oil after shaving, like pure coconut oil. Just be careful to use a little bit, cuz too much oil will leave you feeling ... well.. oily. Plus side, is that coconut oil itself is incredibly good for your skin.

Try an ice cube rub, then any decent non-greasy moisturizer (Nivea is good). You'll have a natural shine from that combo.

I've started doing the cold water rinse and I have to say, if nothing else, it is very refreshing.  I can't believe how something that can take your breathe away can feel so refreshing.  It does seem to give me a better shine too.  What type of aloe vera gel do you guys use?

I'm with the rest.

Cold water. That's probably your best bet.
