Shiny Shiny or Not
« on: October 31, 2007, 04:43:00 AM »
I have talked with a people on this and like to know what you guys think on it.

Do you like your head being shiny shiny or do you like to use products that tones down the shine and if you do use that product, what is it?     

Happy Halloween

The more shine I can get the better I like it.

I'm one of those guys who sometimes wants a shine, and sometimes doesn't. For me, it depends a little on the type of shaving creme or gel that I start with.

I've found the best shine for me comes starts with some Trader Joe's Honey Mango shaving creme. After I'm done shaving and out of the shower, I'll rinse the chrome dome with some cold water for about 30-seconds. This works great for me. Then I'll apply a little moisturizing lotion and I'm good to go.

Shine is good.  I usually have pretty good shine after the scalp conditioner, but on sunny days when I use sun block it's shine to reflection!  Today, top down on the car, sun block on, in the rear view mirror I could see reflections of the trees!  Good!

I guess I'm in the minority here.
 I prefer a "matte finish".
I've recently started using the Matte for Men products and I'm completely satisfied with the results. O:O

I use the Matte HB Lube (when I remember or am not in a rush in the morning).  ;D ;D

I use the Headlube matte finish as well, but I'm not all that impressed with the product.
I prefer L'Oreal After Shave Balm with SPF 15. It's a little more expensive than the HeadLube, but it's a much better product.

I prefer the shine. I get a shine naturally, but always looking out for ways to make it better. :D

Got to have my noggin' smooth 'n shiny! 8)

I find that I get my best shine if I rinse my head with really cold water after I shave. I shave in the shower most of the time so I just turn off the hot water and let the cold water run over my head for as long as I can stand it. Most times I don't even use any headlube or aftershave to enhance the shine, the cold water seems to do the trick.  O0
