I get razor bumps very easy so I use an Oster or Wahl trimer but both leave fuzz. I use Magic Shave Dipilatory occassionally but after too many uses I end up burned. What product or solutions do you guys have for a long time baldy new to slybaldguy??

Jeffbee, welcome to Sly Bald Guys!!
You can try a product called Tend Skin Liquid (http://www.tendskin.com/tendskin.htm (http://www.tendskin.com/tendskin.htm)). I'm supposed to get a bottle from Dr. Rosen to review soon, but I haven't received it yet, so I can't comment on how well it works. Dr. Rosen did assure me that it was safe for the scalp.
Here's what he wrote:
The product is safe for scalp use as this
was one of the first uses for the product when we started back in 1994. You
"may" get some peeling of the skin which is about the only side-effect you
should have assuming you don't use the product in combination with something
that might cause an interaction.
You can also try ClearHead (http://headblade.com/ (http://headblade.com/)) by HeadBlade.

Jeffbee, welcome to the group! I used Nair and other chemical shaver before, (never on my head, the chem above eyes doesn't give me comfort) but I have not found anything that doesn't burn my skin just a bit immediately after and more with each use. I suggest trying a razor and see how it works for you.
-
Do not use chemicals on your scalp. I have heard to many horror stories.
-
Now...I don't have a shaved head...but as far as the face, good ol', time-tested Alum is still holdin' its ground, man.

you might think i am biased but CLEARHEAD is tops for razor bumps. i was using dickinsons witch hazel which worked great as well. the moment i tried the CLEARHEAD, my witch hazel is collecting dust, i need to clean

Will ClearHead work with a chemical shaver?

if you are asking if it will work after you use NAIR (?), i am not sure. you might have to be the guinea pig here. dont know anybody that uses that instead of a razor

man, my theory is this: If yall or picking on me, yall are leaving everyone else alone. i feel like i get my digs in too. besides, how could someone not have fun with the sly brothers.i usually pick on the people i like the most. if i don't care for someone i don't speak to them at all.

It is kinda shocking for such a low-income state, and among the lower public school quality there are so many university here. Of course most of them have some religious tie.

he almost got thrown out for doing drugs and partying too much.

And isn't Oral Roberts University in Oklahoma?
-
think so. it was kinda funny seeing the devil go to a baptist school.
-
Yeah it is up in Tulsa.
-
As the late Lewis Grizzard wrote, "If Oral Roberts is such a godly man, why does he have such a dirty work for a first name"!

Isn't that in Ron White's routine?
-
maybe, but i heard it from Larry the cable guy.

Hey Paul--
Just an observation....could be on any thread.....and will be irrelevant if you change your profile pic.
But I like the combination of the twinkle in your eye....the sly smirk. Does that have something to do with the fact that your drink has been downed? :)
-
well thanks brudda. actually that is just coke. :'( iwas on call at a company party. but yes i would have had the same look if it had been an adult beverage. ;D

I think your right, it's Larry the Cable Guy. I knew it was Blue collar, but not sure of which one.
