Title: about to do it.
Post by: soon2bebald on September 07, 2008, 03:56:25 PM

I'm a little hesitant but I think I'm about to shave my head.   Do you know if the spray on tanning places will tan the whole head of a bald person.  This actually is a big deal to me.  I don't want to be a big pale white head when people see me bald for the first time I want to be blended. 

Thanks

Hey SOON!!!! Welcome to the Forum! There is a Jergens product (Natural Glow) that will tan you slowly and look perfectly natural, You won't notice any real difference until you use it fore a few days.

Post up some before and after pics once you do it!!

Soon, you should have luck in a tanning booth but be careful to not be as aggressive trying to tan as you would for your face or body. Your newly exposed skin will burn fast at first so try to go as slow as you can. Tanning sessions and a self tanner should do the trick.

Read some reviews on the self tanners and get a good one and also get two shades. Light and medium compared to your skin tone. Start with the light and wait.

Good luck man. I had the same concern and had my noggin fully tanned up in about 5 days.

Soon - Welcome to SBG and congrats on your decision to shave it all off.  When I did it, exactly 1 year ago from today, I went away for the weekend and did alot of tanning before showing up for work on Monday.  That took the edge off my pastey noggin.

Welcome to SBG's soon, good to have you with us. The sooner you shave the noggin', the sooner you will feel freedom. 
As far as tanning, go natural with a little bit of sun each day, and be sure to wear sunscreen. 

Good luck.      O0

Your head will surely be white when you do it.
Just take a week-end off, shave and then hit the beach.
You'll be golden.  O:O

Kojack's right.  I shaved my head on a Friday after work and my noggin was definitely white.  I did hit the beach and by Monday when I went back to work, I was golden.  It doesn't take long to get a tan on the dome.  I've also tried self-tanning products, but nothing's better than the sun for getting a natural look.
