Any Love for "Bald Guyz" around here?

• Any Love for "Bald Guyz" around here? by benlen on 01 Jul, 2013 19:54
• Hey everyone. With SlyBaldGuys having all kinds of endorsements, from BeeBald to Headblade, I was intrigued to see that another brand I often spot in stores, Bald Guyz, was missing from the site (or presumably not displayed front and center).
  
  
  When I first starting shaving my head seven months ago, I bought a couple shave creams, your standard Edge Sensitive cream, and this:
  
  
  
  
  When I first started shaving, I disliked the Bald Guyz immediately––I thought it was too thin of a shave cream, didn't offer enough glide, etc.
  
  
  But as I was coming down low on my Edge cream again, I discovered the Bald Guyz in the back of the cupboard and decided to give it a try this morning.
  
  Man am I glad I did! All the complaints I had against Bald Guyz were gone when I saw that this cream didn't clog my razor and provided, amazingly, a better shave.
  
  I also didn't have a tone of white gook all over my hands or wasted a bunch of shave cream.
  
  
  So for you guys, I have a few questions:
  
  
  1) Have you ever used Bald Guyz brand? What did you think?
  
  
  2) What alternatives to this Bald Guyz cream from Headblade or BeeBald might exist? Are they cheaper/more expensive? What are your thoughts?

• I used it for a while, then my local stores stopped carrying it.  Got some Head Slick and have been using that, sometimes with Shave Secret, sometimes alone.  I put them about on par with each other.

• I think it was pretty decent when I used it alone or mixed with Shave Secret. I still have a half-tube left, but I've been so fixated on Head Slick that I haven't used it in a while. On a side note, the guy on the tube looks somewhat like Razor X...

• Sly Harry, I mean Bayou Sly, lol, is Head Slick comparable to Bald Guyz shave gel?

  Benlen, I guess you can compare them, except that Headslick lasts a lot longer because you only need a small amount mixed with Shave Secret....Bald Guyz, on the other hand, I had to use a larger amount to be effective. But either way, as long as you use a shaving brush, they both can be very effective.

• It's a shaving "cream" that is in my current rotation. I don't use it a lot but I like it when I do. Also, I'll second Bayou Sly's recommendation of using it with a brush. It helps to really lather it up.

• For several years, my shaving gel of choice has been a 50/50 mix of Headslick and Bald Guyz shave gel. I love Headslick and how it lathers up, but I never liked the fact my razor would clog up. Bald Guys shavel gel, which is ok by itself, helps minimize the clogging.

• Been wanting to try it, but can't find it locally.

• I'll look in the stores when I go shopping later on, but it may be discontinued....
