Preparing Your Head For The Bald Shave

You should take your time and do short, smooth strokes in each area you shave. For the least irritation, pass over each area of your scalp only once. If you're worried you missed a spot, you can pass shave the area again, but sensitive skin will often react to this.
When you're done, use a cool washcloth and dry your head with a soft towel. You may want to use a moisturizer (nonscented). The most important thing about any aftershave product is that it should soothe your skin. Aftershave products or skin care lotions that contain Aloe Vera or Vitamin E will help - but avoid lotions that contain alcohol. Alcohol dries out the skin, and this is the last thing you need after shaving.
If you do have scalp irritation, sport a cap or hat for a few days. But don't forget to take it off in a dimly lit bar to show off your new sexy, bald head.

Choosing the right razor

Choosing the right razor for a clean smooth shave
In the early years of hair grooming, men pulled out unwanted hair with their hands. Later, they moved to razors and tweezers. Now, there are many choices available for safe, clean, smooth shaving. Choosing a razor is really about personal preference - some men prefer using a new razor each time they shave, so a disposable razor is a good choice for them. Cheap razors often cause nicks and cut, so many men instead opt for an electric razor. There are even razors designed specifically to shave your head. The main consideration when choosing your razor is finding one that gives you the kind of shave and results you want.
1. Electric razors. If you are nervous about cuts and nicks, you might want to consider an electric razor. These razors are rechargeable, designed for a close shave, and can often be used with water or shaving gel. For the most part, these give close shaves without the worry of nicks. Sometimes, electric razors do not give close shaves in areas that are bony, such as around the chin or knees

2. Disposable razors. These are the cheapest option. They come in different shapes and sizes. If you are considering using a disposable razor, think about what you need in a razor. One-bladed razors are ideal for sensitive skin, while razors with multiple blades are good for the closest, cleanest shave possible. If you have very sensitive skin, beware of razors with lubricant strips - they may just irritate you skin. Some razors even make strips designed with sensitive skin in mind. Always remember that disposable razors are just that - disposable. They aren't mean to be reused for a long period of time, and they dull quite easily, which can also irritate your skin.

3. Traditional razors are another option. These are similar to disposable razors, but they handle is used over and over again and the heads are replaced with each shave. These are more expensive than disposable razors, and often give similar shaves. However, the heavier handles are easier to use with wet skin. They also offer close, smooth shaves.
Choosing a razor is more about trial and error than anything else. Gels, creams, and other shaving products can help you get the best shave without a lot of nicks and cuts. When it comes to your face, it's best to get the cleanest, most comfortable shave possible, so don't scrimp just because you're cheap. A good razor is an investment and will help you show your best game face.
