It isn't meant to get rid of the shadow,  it's meant to add shadow to the top.

NO!!!!!  I love my head shaves and would never consider applying any type of "cover up" on my dome.

That guy has a remarkable amount of "shadow" considering he says he shaves his head...I mean, I know a lot of pale men with dark hair have it bad with the shadow, but this looks a little much...almost as if he is buzzing his head and not truly shaving it.

Typical advertising attempt to play on people's paranoia about baldness. Old man! Scientist! Not my cup of tea!

His pictures look a bit photo shopped and why no head on view from the front ?   If you really need a shadow then consider micro pigmentation.  I did it only because I had extensive hair transplant scars all over basically. So my profile pic is of the end result. Moral of the story is NEVER get hair transplants.

If one reads the ad, at one point they show a young lady making  face and saying, "Yuck, Grandpa, Old man, Scientist."

Hold it chicky, I'm a physicist, a  form of scientist in the eyes of many, and I have shaved my head for 15 years. If there is some group of illiterate, ill informed, stupid young women going around saying the above quoted then...in this day and age of hyper sensitivity, I believe she's violated my civil rights. Or some rights. The rights to be bald. And, quite seriously, the ad is offensive on several levels as well as decptive on others. I, for one, cannot see much difference between the "before" photo and the "after" photo.

Did I mention that bit about "scientists"? I thought so.   PJ

I copied his pics to my PC and did full screen shot and you def. can see the ink smeared on his mpb area.  In that case go for the micro pigmentation.  Re-applying ink stain on your head for the rest of your life only makes this guy wealthy ... LOL !

It takes me several  days of not shaving before my horseshoe shows  - - -I never go more than a day - - -very  rarely do I skip a day.

Not for me  - - -and the way it shows it looks like stubble on top.

Yeah I found the grandpa, old man, scientist bit offensive. Not because he said it but because it reminded me that women often can say things in an offensive manner and think it's fine and generally people accept it because they don't want to upset them.
It was only yesterday a female acquaintance looked at me and almost laughing quite happily said I had "chicken legs". I looked at her and thought how would it go down now if I said in return "yeah and yours look like elephant legs" It should have been fine in theory

Anyway I'm getting off topic, hmmmm what should i do with this old cartridge of black printer ink that I have in my draw?
and the end of our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time

Well that's most certainly a crock o' something, and it's not gold. The problem with all these things is that they are still in denial; just admit you're balding and live your life...

I use this myself and it looks pretty good you can't tell. The only problem is getting a bit of the solution on your fingers but the instructions do tell you how to wash it off. I can tell it just takes a bit of practice but I am going to use this when going on a date I have this sat.
