Head Shaving, Grooming & Care > How To Protect Your Bald Head

How often do you guys shave your head? Razor burn? Irritation? Shine?

<< < (3/4) > >>

scooby:
i am bald on top not by choice,and thin on the sides and back due to cancer in 2005,so i use a electric shaver which looks bald,and i do that every day.

Goatee:
I often get acne or spots on my head. Frustrating. Been shaving the dome for several years now. I use clear head.

It can be very annoying. Cant shave everyday and some days i have to use my 'Braun Shaver'.

Reg:
When I first started my scalp would get irritated easily just from shaving every other day. However, my technique and everything else wasn't as good then either. As with others my scalp is more conditioned to the shave now and I go through a routine which prevents irritation. A nice hot shower, exfoliate the scalp while in there, lather up with plenty of shaving soap (wilkinsons soap with the brush). I try to go for just one pass so I go straight against the grain with usually about 16-24 hours growth (I shave once in the morning, again after work in the evening if I'm out for any socials) - if left any longer than that, I go with the grain first. Go with the grain for now, you'll need to learn the direction your hair grows in first. As for shine, I usually use cocoa butter that has a gradual tanner in it to add shine and a bit of colour (lessens the shadow quite a bit). Hope that helps, it can be an enjoyable ritual.

bamidon1775:
I used to suffer from razor burn or bumps and what, especially if I would shave two days in a row. Which is a problem because I like to shave every day just to have that smooth surface. I found Barbedeaux - Aftershave, and it is hands down the best thing I have used for combat the razor burn or irritation.  I'll put a link below. I know everyone's skin and head are different, but this stuff really helped me. It's nice where there are products out there that actually do what they say they are supposed to do.

Cheers

I shave my head daily and I don’t really get razor burn, but on the off chance I do, it’s almost always on the back of my head near the back of my neck. My head gets really shiny if I don’t moisturize it, that dulls it a little bit
