Shaving Cream or Gel?
fjc:
All my life I've mostly just shaved with an electric, due to blade costs and irritation. Recently I started shaving my head. Just used some old Gillette shave gel I had in the cupboard, probably many years old. Since I'm shaving my head, I might as well do the face the same way - my electric razor hasn't been used in weeks now.
Picked up some Headslick and that does a great job. As I'm on a shave-with-a-razor kick, I decided for the first time in my life to get a cheap badger brush. Based on stuff I've read on this site, I also picked up a tub of the Taylor of Old Bond Street Sandalwood shave cream.
Wow. What an amazing feeling to lather up with that brush! Got a great shave this morning using that. Used way too much of the cream, but I'll learn.

I tend to use shaving creams mostly. I used to use (& sometimes do for a change) shaving foam. I have recently started using gels and I think they are pretty good as you can kind of see any stubble that you have missed. I don't know, but it seems to me that I still get a closer shave using cream. Is this anybody elses experience, too? :)

I've been using headblade's products for a while now but recently wanted to try beebald's stuff...awesome products!!! Might be making the switch. I also switch back and forth between the good ol Mach 3 and a DE. I only use the DE when time allows for it (which isn't too often)

Shaving cream works better for me.

I have a friend that uses baby shampoo to shave his head. He swears by it. Anyone here ever used that to shave your head?
