I just shaved my head on Monday, and I'm really liking it so far. I'm wondering, what do I use to get a really shiny chomedome? Whenever I go out, i see guys that shave, and their heads absolutely GLISTEN.

Lots of products will give you a shine. I make my own lotion, and a couple applications will get you nice and shiny.
90% witch hazel
10% aloe
A few drops of tea tree oil.
I just use an empty hand soap pump bottle. Also good for irritation and skin conditioning.

Anyone have any experience with Bee Bald stuff? I've heard about them.

Rinse with cold water after shaving.

Some guys, myself included, the shine comes natural. For those of us like that, its caused by an abundance c of naturally occurring oils in your scalp. Im not sure, but, i suspect products meant to polish a shaved or naturally bald head do so hy stimulating your scalp to produce more of those oils. If anyonevhere knows different, though, please feel free to correct me on that.

Unfortunately for those of us who are still cursed with a lot of hair, the shine is fleeting. Mine only lasts about 4 hours.

I dont seem to have much of that problem. Im bbc, with very thick hair that barbers would always comment on before i shaved. Yet, for me, at least, i seem to alwsys have some shine, right up until the point when stubble starts become obvious near the end of the day

For me, I find just a splash of cold water after shaving and let the natural oils do their thing works... Also, a small amount of sunscreen seems to give me a shine too. (Plus there's the added sun protection benefits!)
