Bald FNG
« on: January 15, 2014, 01:01:50 PM »
Just like my name I'm the FNG to the forum and shaving. My name is Drew. Started balding at 20, for the last 5 years I've been a 3 guard and 2 weeks ago I picked up a head blade. Today was my first ATG and I love it.

I've lurked around for some tips and hope to learn a lot more.

Welcome Drew.

We all have been the "new guy" at some time on this forum.

Glad you are liking smooth. Personally, I never have considered going back.

Here is my current arsenal.  I'm also liking to get into the safety razor scene on my beard, but that is all in good time.

Welcome to the forum Bald FNG. That's a pretty good setup you have already, good choice on using the HeadBlade razor and products. You should be okay for a while, then you can start checking out other creams, etc.
One thing I recommend getting is BaldGuyz Moisture Gel for after shaving the dome. It's one of the most soothing things you can apply when you're done shaving. Give it a go and let us know how you like it. Enjoy the smooth dome!  O0

Hi Drew:  Welcome to the sly fraternity.  Glad that you joined us.  Nice pic of your shave gear and nice watch too.  I am a huge fan of the traditional way of shaving if you have any questions give me a PM or just post up a question in the SAFETY RAZOR SECTION of the FORUM.  Take care and see you around the sly neighborhood.
