I've thought about going to one for head shaved, but that was one of the main reasons I started shaving my head bald in the first place.

Plus I like to shave daily.

Razorhead:
My last headshave at a barbershop was a couple years ago. It was done by a bald headed barber who gave me a flattop a few times so he knew me.  I walked in and I think he was expecting to shape up my flattop, but I surprised him and asked for him to shave it all off. He was almost shocked by my request. He said 'just shave the sides right? what do you want me to do with the top?' I just replied shave it all off. then he mumbled 'But you have a full head of hair....but I get it...I get it.' He shaved it off clean using just clippers and a foil shaver. I was a happy camper!

I was surprised by his reaction. Because I don't think I have the greatest head of hair.

Kromedome:
I've had one barbershop head shave, probably about 15 years ago. Went from an overgrown flatty to sly, but I wasn't impressed. The barber used a straight razor but only shaved with the grain, so it wasn't as smooth as I can get it. So, I don't think I'll ever get another barbershop head shave unless I can find someone that will make it as smooth as I can.

slybeard:
I have had a few.  The hot towels and straight razor shaves are a great experience, but it is never as close as I can get myself.

Semi-Sly:
I love getting a real hot towel, straight razor head shave by a barber, especially because I hate shaving my own head! (Which is one of the reasons that I don?t shave my head much anymore.  If I had a head shave, buzz buddy who would shave my head for me every week I would go back to keeping a smooth, clean dome.)

But I am a Barber and truth be told it would be very difficult for me to get your head as smooth with a straight razor as you can get with a triple blade, chick, extreme or Mach three Razor!

If you prep your scalp correctly and use a nice new multi blade razor against the grain, you?re gonna get the smooth as possible shave you can get
