Please detail your routine so that we know what you're doing wrong.

Don't shave against the grain.
Try a different razor.
Use Thayer's Witch Hazel with aloe vera after you shave.

Try giving the dome a good LONG soaking in the shower first bro especially if you are a sink shaver.   Use an exfoliator like St. Ives Apricot scrub.   Maybe you need a shave cream especially designed for the head like Bald Guyz or HeadSlick.    Always have a good sharp razor, (personally hate disposables for the rash they give me) and apply a really cold water rinse to the noggin after shaving.

after you shave and rinse....rinse with cold water, rub an ice cube on your head, dry off, aftershave, then use some aloe vera with lidocaine...that should help.

and try not going against the grain for a while
