Post by: lbruto on November 09, 2014, 11:38:01 AM

Hello everyone
i am planning to go for a buzz cut but the thing thats stopping me is that i have seborrhea on my head and i am not sure whether to take the plunge or not?
I had severe case of sd 2 months back but it has calmed down a bit however i know my scalp is dry and still can feel dryness and idk how to describe it but balls on my head

So wt should i do
wt number should i go for?

I used to have a bad case of seb derm before I started buzzing/shaving my head. When I still buzzed it, the seb derm would start clearing up shortly after the buzz but when my hair grew back a good ways, seb derm came right back. I mostly buzzed mine at a number 2. Ever since I've shaved daily with a razor, that has yet to be a problem. I don't know if you are keen on shaving your head bald with a razor but if you want seborrhea to be gone permanently, shaving is the way to go.

I have heard a few guys here say that with razor balde shaving their issues go away.  I am not sure if buzzing will help much.  The blade shaving on a regular basis gets rid of the dry and dead skin along with the hair.
