All of the domes pictured look great, but I gotta tell ya reddog, if my dome looked as good as yours, I wouldn't have the confidence issues I'm having about showing mine off! You were made for the look! O0 O0

Thanks fencer, Can't imagine why you would lack confidence, I think I commented before that I think your head has a GREAT shape. Sending you a PM.

Your routine can be as simple or elaborate as you desire.

Mine: Shampoo, exfoliate, shave, rinse, done.

I like to wash my head 2-4 times daily depending on how much I sweat. And also some witch hazel and aloe Vera.

A cold rinse, witch hazel, some baby oil, then aloe vera gel. I may have to try something like what reddog is doing though...killer shine ;)

For me ... Shave the head almost every day (like to take a break once or twice a week): Exfoliate and then shave with headslick and a Headblade ATX or Sport

Typically After shaving: Taylor of old Bond Street After Shave gel, SPF moisturizer( more than likely HeadLube SPF30) and reapply every once in awhile.  In the summer months, I'll wash my gourd a little more often so the skin doesn't break out.

Fencer, I agree that reddog was made for the look.   I also think you were too!  We are each our own worse critics.   It appears many of the other guys on here agree that you have no need to feel anything but confident about your shaved head!  O0

I'm a daily shaver, I end up itching my head like crazy if I skip a day.
I shave with Headslick and an ATX S4 in the shower, I use a shave brush so I can make multiple passes without dispensing extra Headslick. When done I apply Lubriderm intense skin repair lotion. At night I rinse the dome with a wash cloth and water then I take a cotton ball soaked in witch hazel and run it over the dome then I finish up by applying aloe.

I'm not too fancy. 

I currently shave every other day and am a sink shaver.  Use a Fusion Pro-Glide, AVEENO® POSITIVELY SMOOTH® Shave Gel, and then AVEENO® Men's™ After Shave Lotion all over the head for that nice cooling sensation.

Nice, smooth, and shiny all day long! My head is naturally oily so it does take on a nice slick shine as the day wears on.

Also, even on the days that I don't shave I still apply the Aveeno After Shave Lotion.

I use lotion sometimes or my herbal moisturiser by bump defense works good also I am a fan of vitamin-e/ herbal oil great for after the shave

Pretty much the same as has been said, I also use an alum block, it soothes any knicks and stops the bleeding, my head gets greasy during the day, alum keeps it dry

Started shaving head everyday with my Braun Elec shaver. What a difference!
