After my shave, I rinse with cold water and then apply some witch hazel. I then apply some Fruit of the Earth Aloe Vera Gel and then head lube glossy. That seems to give me a good shine on the noggin.

Also, try a daily moisturizer for dry skin..helps w/the shave, too.

my best shine was after soem baby oil. But my students realised that with my glossy head, the glossy flashcards would stick to it.....    Much to their amusement (and greasy cards later) baby oil does work.... it's like high-sheen wax

A cold water rinse, a splash of witch hazel, a little baby oil rubbed in and then buffed out, then a generous amount of aloe vera gel is working so far for me. :)

Joe, you have a really nice shine. May I post the picture of the two of us from awhile ago showing the shine?

Why is it that I don't have trouble getting a shiny bald head.  I just rinse with cold water and towel dry and that it.  It always shines.

I use witch hazel. It closes the pores and creates a natural non oily shine.
