Another HeadBlader here...... it's not the HB.... it's that cheap Barbasol. Get thee to Wally-World and get some HeadSlick...... or CVS for some BaldGuyz Shave Gel.

I agree with that also. I am a Headblader too and had the razor burn until I started using a quality shave oil and or gel like BaldGuyz or Headslick.

To me...the razor and the shave gel/creams are the key. It sounds like your using a good razor. In terms of the cream...give up the barbasol! The best for sensitve skin is Matte For Men Antioxidant Shave gel. Ive been using it for years now and thankfully it allows me to shave everyday. They make great stuff.
Hope it helps...

There's a whole section on the website devoted to advice and different routines that people have.
I think you should go with a shaving oil or a gel instead of the cream. I also usually use a headblade, but I do above the ears and against the grain on the sides with my Mach 3 (that I also use on my face).
I also lube up my head with a little bit of baby oil after being in the shower 5 mins or so.
So I
-lube my head with the oil,
-I put shaving gel on my face then my head. -
-I shave my face and sides with the Mach 3, -
then I shave the top and back with the headblade.
Sounds complicated but I've been at it for years and the whole process takes about 5 mins or less for me now because I'm so used to it.

Watch out with that Headlube, as it's known to cause some people post-shave redness or burning. You might want to think about spraying some witch hazel on your head before applying an aftershave balm.
Also try rubbing an ice cube over your head after the shave. It's certainly not for the faint-hearted, but man does it work. Ice will tame any head-burn flame!
