The big question is - what kind of facial hair do you wear with your shaved head?

easily a handlebar mustache.

Buzz cut, yes, but not razor. Still plenty of hair left up there for now.

I have, but don't care for the total chrome dome. When I can grab some hair and pull a bit, time to break out the shears. Get a "Wahl" brand shear set. I normally use the shortest clip-on thingie (green ~.5mm?) and blaze away. It leaves a little thicker then a 5:00 shadow. I do it once a month.

One other thing to think about. Do you have the nice type of pate that will look good with little hair. Some people do not. Ask the wife. My wife commented, after seeing an army picture of me shaved, "You look good bald". Thusly, I was blessed.

Yeah, I trimmed to 1/4-inch a couple weeks ago as an interim step to see if I had the right-shaped noggin. The barber said I did, and once shaved I agree. The wife likes it, I like it. So it's a win.

If you are going to for the shine, there is a "finger" blade. I don't know the proper term. It's a ring like sleeve that you slide on a finger with a blade running length wise on the underside. Hop in the shower, lather the head, then stroke like you were combing your hair.

Headblade. I've ordered one, don't have it yet.

Personally I shave my head at the bathroom sink then shower and wash my head good.After drying off I strongly suggest a good skin lotion you like and rub it in good.

If I did, it would all be back the next day.

This is chiefsplanet, everyone is bald, fat, and has a goatee.

ERRRRR I mean, everyone looks like a Calvin Klein model and pulls lingerie models 20 years their junior.

Hot shower, at least 60 seconds of continuous hot water on the head, wash and rinse the scalp, lather up with shaving cream ....then most importantly grab your Mach 3 razor blades (I swear by these) . Shave against the grain and I promise your head will come out squeaky clean

I'm bald, fat, and have a full beard, thankyouverymuch. :harumph:

I'm as smooth as a dolphin up there. I did it about five years ago, and it's far preferable to having the little monk fringe that fate cruelly dealt me. It's more stylin' and much easier to walk in rain. The only downside is that a hat is absolutely necessary in both sun and in cold weather.
