Head Shaving, Grooming & Care > How To Protect Your Bald Head
do you trust sunscreen? does it prevent "pain"?
oldkookskater:
Yes. I usually wear the coppertone or store-brand equivalent spray-on with SPF 30 or higher.
I usually skate(board) most mornings before work and in summer it gets pretty hot and bright pretty early in Dallas. I spray my head, face and neck, and I didn't have any problems when I used it.
This past week, I forgot sunscreen and went to the park on an overcast day. I didn't feel the sunburn until after I'd showered and shaved. I was only out from 8:00 AM to 9:30 AM and that was enough time for the Texas sun to burn me.
I also occasionally wear a hat when I'm out and at the park - usually to shield my eyes from the harsh morning glare (I can't skate with shades - tried and the shadows play tricks on my eyes). Wearing a hat and being bald (or sly) is no big deal. Check Omar Hassan. Usually wears a trucker-cap when he skates.

Wearing a hat while bald is uncomfortable to me when it's hot. The skin doesn't react well.

Try wearing something with an open weave made from natural fibre O0 I have some "poor boy" hats made from hemp as well as your traditional straw hats I rock around town occasionally, you don't want something that will trap moisture to your scalp.
