Who here shaves their heads?
 

I saw the back of my head in a convenience store's security camera and it's getting thinner than I'm comfortable with. So I embraced it and shaved it.

Looking for tips, tricks, etc. for getting a really smooth shave and keeping burn and bumps to a minimum.

Thanks in advance.

You should try some Rogain and head and shoulders.

I had thinning hair then I started counting calories and working out more...it really isn't rocket science.

Keep your junk clean but leave your roof covered...

Too late.

kinda giggled when I read "coochie cream". then I remembered my son left a tube of stuff he shaves with called "man jack" in my shower a couple weeks ago. I think I'd just as soon use the coochie cream.
sec

I'm sure he's left plenty of "Man Jack" in your shower...

I have thinning hair as well. Just like you seeing the back of your head from a camera, I was video taping with a tripod(back in the day) my daughters birthday. I was helping her unwrap the gifts. I reviewed the tape and thought "who is that fat bald dude"?

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.

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

I do. Well, I did before it started falling out lol.

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.

Edge gel, Mach III blades. Right now I have a full beard from top of my ear to top of my ear.

Obligatory old joke:

There once was a blonde who went to the Dr. and complained about her husband having really bad dandruff. The Dr. told her to give him some head and shoulders.

A week passed and the blonde showed back up at the doctor's office.

"Can I help you?" the doctor asked.

"Yes, I've been racking my brains but have no idea how to give shoulders."


Feel free to neg rep at will.

Full beard.

easily a handlebar mustache.

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

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.

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

:thumb:

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.

WWP

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.

The weather down here in Alabama has just started to turn on the border of a bit chilly in the early mornings, and that's one of the first things I noticed. Felt a little brisk up there after I shaved.

don't hate. not my fault.

...my middle daughter also models.

Chicks dig it.

Fact: If you rub a dolphin's blowhole, he'll rape you.

I'm probably going to end up this way, but I'm afraid. I have a weird shaped skull. I have what my wife "lovingly" calls my "Klingon Ridge."

I thought that was just Alpacas?

You know the drill.

Gonna need pics of said daughter.

I've met a few women in my day that could be said about as well.

That sucks. Recommend a hat or rug.

You'd be awesome at tailgate parties,we could play ring toss.

Your wife said the same thing about you!

Ooooo

I'm not that vain. But, every time I cut my hair short, she says, "Welcome aboard, Mr. Worf."

Evil whore.

Kinky

Don't rub it in, jerk.

Wife cuts my hair. I told her as soon as she starts to whine about it, its getting the steel. So its up to her.

Coincidentally, dad whines about cold head all the time.

puhlease,I know you can do better than that.

LMAO

But none of the other comments included visuals of you in your room standing in front of all your tvs while Chiefsplanet members threw rings on your long erect penis.

...

lol everyone that read that just pictured it.

Merry Christmas.

By "he", do you mean me or the dolphin? But I guess either one is right.

I have a full head of beautiful hair. I recently grew it longer, wishing to experiment with it. It looks even better. Perhaps I will not cut it for many months now, and become like Jesus, as I near the age of 33, which was his best year, too.

^ Bear.

Heh, yer' old now...

Fortunately men are appreciating assets!

I mean...as long as you still have your hair.

This is true. But don't forget money. Get some.

LMAO

No offense.

None taken. :) I'm super low maintenance. I don't like clutter or a lot of things laying around. I don't wear tons of jewelry. I get off on buying really nice stuff for really cheap.

But if you don't have money in your 30s, or hope of money, or some kind of pipeline of money, there's a problem. Whether or not it's a fixable problem is what you have to sell.

That's the Katipan I know and love LMAO

This is why you are a cool chick.

Mach III and Dove Exfoliating
About twice per week.

The Good. You never have a bad hair day
The Bad. You always have a bad hair day.

Do they make micro rings?

I just bought this the other day to style my lovely hair. It has a firm hold and great matte finish. I love it.

I once had long, flowing locks.

Men and boys...

WHat was that hair styling stuff they sold back in the 80s? Dap or something?

Dippity-Do!

I think you are trying a bit too much compadre. You don't seem like the jacket wearing, sweater tucked in, paste in the hair kind of guy.

Ease your roll. Clay, the Clay of today, rocks (and you know that).

I started shaving mine a little over a year ago because like you, I noticed how thin it was getting on a security camera. I dont bic it though, I just use a set of clippers with no guard. I have a full beard but keep it extremely short too with my clippers and a 1 guard.

Crunchy!

Gotta style my hair bro. Otherwise it looks like shit.

Don't wear jackets or tuck sweaters in, though. That IS trying too hard.

Is there really a point where a man says "**** it. I have lost this battle"?

It comes right after, "do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?"

Shave it!

Yeah, that's why I started shaving my head. Im not going to be male pattern baldness guy.

You sure it wasn't a box of themanjacks?

Is that in the pre-nup? Should be.

Be clean men. Don't embarrass yourselves out there. Shave your bits.

I have a full head of beautiful hair. It's a sign of virility. I'll keep my hair, so women can run their fingers through it.

I'm going for the "far less attractive Donger" look, personally.

You are one of those males who doesn't have much of a skin gap between your eyebrows and temples, right?

You seem to be missing the "women" part. See my earlier post.

And hey, I'm just ****ing with ya.

I'm not sure what this means, but no.

I'll see if I can find a reference picture, but just think of a mixed-breed Cro-Magnon.

nah...think it's a tube. or are you yankin my chain? help me out, here.
