Which is the best look ? Shiny or Matt?
« on: December 29, 2008, 05:37:47 AM »
I'm bored so here's a silly holiday question. 

I prefer the Shiny Look for my head and use HeadLube Gloss to achieve the look that I want.

Which do you prefer or strive for?

Shiny, without question.  I've even buffed the dome w/ my t-shirt when dressing in the morning.  Feels good, brings up a little more shine. 8)

Definitely shiny.  I use HeadLube Glossy, but I always end up with a shine an hour or two after shaving anyway.

At first, I wanted to keep the shine down. Imagine that.

Then I realized the shinier, the better. I get good shiny results with Gillette Afta on the freshly shaved dome. It's cool when there's a glare in the family holiday photos!

Well boys to add some variety.... I prefer the understated matte look.
I like it shining too mind but I think the matte clean look suits my skin colour better.

Before I shaved mine, I wanted the matte look because I wanted to draw as little attention to my head as possible - I was a former hairpiece guy.  After I shaved it, I wanted to shine as brightly as possible because I wanted everyone to see it.

SHINY! 8)

A shiny dome makes a definite statement 'I'm SLY and proud of it! 8)
