Title: Do you gota shampoo
Post by: jc71corvette on December 25, 2009, 01:36:52 PM

When you shave your head with a 0 clip or no guard, do you have to shampoo your head after? Everytime I shaved it that short, I have to clean that dead skin off. Or what ever that is?

HeadBlade sells a product called HeadShed... it keeps my pate smooth and free of debris!  O0

In the shower I'm using just a shower gel on the noggin.
Before every shave I exfoliate with Ginseng Actif Daily Face Wash from Yves Rocher. Works for me!  :)

Personally I just use a little dot of shampoo and a wash rag to clean my stubble then I use a conditioner afterwards.

No guard clippers provide the impression of a shaved head, only the blade does the deal.  Doing the deal w/ a blade, and reasonable exfoliation will remove the issue of "dead skin." 
I guess you could do extra exfoliation w/ a loofa sponge or whatever, but if you really want it clean it's got to be the blade.  Blade for 30 days, you should get used to it and if it's really for you, you'll keep it.

When I was buzzing to a #1, I used shampoo just like normal.  But now that I shave it, I use a facial cleanser.

yes i know what you guys are saying. When I had a chrome dome, I never had a issue with dead skin.
But presently im shaving with a 0 clip. I have that dead skin or debris from the clipper after every shave

After shaving, I use an exfoliating sponge in the shower (feels SOOO good) and then top it off with a St Ives Moisturizer with Vitamin E

Hope this helps

So, you've answered the question, chrome is clean.  I don't understand the purpose of any method that doesn't leave you clean and happy. :/O

From what I've heard - if it's good for the face, then it's good for the head.  Me, I just use shower gel.  Goodbye, shampoo!!
