following my recent post on what were the best products for a shiny dome, , i think i have found the ultimate shine product, having tried headblade glossy,and not being impressed; bold guys moisturizer,which is good, but not widely available in the UK, and anything else that could possibly produce a good shine, i bought a product called DR ORGANICS, ORGANIC DOUBLE STRENTH ALOE VERA GELL, its 100per cent organic and gives a superb shine, its widely available in the uk in most health shops and costs about 5,99 fot 200 mls. THIS IS A SUPERB PRODUCT, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPOINTED, TRY IT :@` :@` :@`
-
PS, you do not need to keep this product in the fridge to get the ultimate glo0ssy dome :@` :@` :@`

Will have to do an internet search to see if "The Good Doctor" is available here in the US market!! (https://www.slybaldguys.com/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi846.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fab21%2FDSO_Traumahawk%2Fsmileydoc.jpg&hash=95ac689c6073d2a28e240cf78b702f94c612e156)
Sounds like a great 'weapon' to add to my collection!!
(LOL- my shaving collection is starting to be worth more than my house...)

Haven't had a chance to dig deep with my "google shovel", but it might only be available through the "Dr O" web site. Some of these overseas companies (like King of Shaves) have a US warehouse from which they ship orders to their US customers.

noodles, i promise you, you will not be dissapointed, this product gives a stunning shine that lasts all day long, its thicker than the normal aloe vera, it stops irritation, you do not need to keep it in the fridge, just apply a small dollop to the freshly shaved noggin and your good to go. :@` :@` :@`i

I sent the company an email to see if they do have a US warehouse.
If they send back a "NO", I may just take you up on your offer! :)
Just let me know how much $$ I need to send you!
(Unfortunately, I am not to keen on the conversion rates, so you'll have to clue me in on the price in US currency!!) :XX

Thanks for the tip, is it available in any high street stores in the UK or just specialist shops? I trust your judgement, you have a shine and a half there. I'm looking for a shine that could cause car crashes on sunny days.
-
I'd be curious to know if this is available in the states and where to find it. Please keep me/us posted. Thanks!!! O0

Cueballuk dr organics is available in the uk at holland and barrats health stores, it gives a superb shine, far better than headblade glossy and its cheaper to 5,99 in the uk for a 200ml tube. O0 O0 O0
-
Chromeo, as far as i am aware the product is not available in the states, but any DOUBLE STRENGH aloe vera gell should give the same result. O0 O0 O0
-
Many thanks, looking forward to trying that out.
-
You will not be disapointed, once you have finished shaving give it a good cold water rince, pat dry, followed by a good witch hazel rub, let that air dry then give it a good dollop of the dr organics. dont rub it all the way in to the skin, rub it all over the dome then let it air dry, result a blinding eye hurting shine, that WILL get comments. glad to be of help O0 O0 O0
-
Gardner,
Thanks for the tip. I will have to give it a try.
-
your welcome O0
-
Hi guys. I'm new here, but been head shaving for a few years now. I second the dr organics recommendation. It's great stuff. I also use the tea tree wash pre shave.
-
markyboy, welcome to the group O0 O0 O0
-
Thank you mate. :)
-
markyboy, the tea tree prewash that you use, is it made by dr organics,
-
If you like a great head shine that is non-greasy, try Fruit of the Earth 100% Clear Aloe Vera Gel. I found it at WalMart for about $5 a bottle. It dries fast and lasts all day. It makes the head shine like glass.
-
Strange as it sounds, I had a barber shave and he sprayed my dome with olive oil then buffed it. I've never had such a shine! I haven't tried it at home, but it seems cheaper than buying a lotion!
-
markyboy, the tea tree prewash that you use, is it made by dr organics,
Yes it is. it's just the tea tree shower gel really, but such good quality. I don't think they do a facewash....?
-
Many thanks for the tip.
-
I use HeadLube with SPF 30. It gives both a good shine and protection from the sun. It also doesn't feel greasy.
The olive oil shine that I mentioned below was really amazing, but one of our brethren here on the forum had a less than happy result with it!
-
Markyboy, cheers for that mate, checked in holland and barratts, they do the shower gell that you recomend, they olso do a t tree face wash . cheers mate. O0 O0

I use HeadLube with SPF 30. It gives both a good shine and protection from the sun. It also doesn't feel greasy.
Today I got a fresh shave and afterward I applied some SPF 30 and after awhile a coat of Aloe Vera gel...thanx for the great tip, npsbg...it was an amazing shine.

I'm travelling around Ireland these days, so this morning I stopped at a Holland and Barrat store and bought a tube of the Dr Organics Double Strength Aloe Vera Gel, as suggested here. It is a really nice product, great shine, absorbs fast and leaves a totally non greasy skin. Thanks for the tip! So if you get a chance to grab one of these I would say go for it and give it a try

Apply Fruit of the Earth 100% Aloe Vera ($3.97 at Wal Mart)
