    Some guys just go for a buzz cut every week, others like myself like a cleaner look. I take a razor to the dome once every other day. I feel the most comfortable that way and so in my opinion if you are going bald you should do the same! shave your head every other day for ultimate comfort and confidence.

    Definitely blade it down. Shaving the head completely actually makes a gent look younger. One of the best benefits I have enjoyed having gone bald is saving about $500 a year on barbers 😁

      Well apart from Razor's (which ain't cheap), shaving gell/cream/foam, the cost of a warm water running Tap, pre shave shit you may put on/post shave shit you may put on, an if you like me it's an every day task (I hate my head sticking to the pillow due to my stubble).
      I'd much rather (if I had enough hair) visit the Barbers after work on a Friday (once every 4-6 weeks), spend 10 mins in a Barbers chair, Pay £10 for my haircut (that's about 12/13 Dollars), go home, take a quick shower, then I'm done for another 4-6 weeks.

    Thanks for these videos man. 38 years old and have always loved having hair. Starting to face the cold reality that in the coming months I should just pull the bandaid off and shave it right down. I RUclipsd videos about baldness to psyche myself up for the big buzz. Seeing people out there positive about it really helps. I want to age with dignity and just embrace the situation, like you are. Pharmaceutical solutions that leave you popping pills your whole life, expensive surgeries, crazy haircuts, none of that is for me. Just embrace who you are and walk this world with your head up high! Anyway, just wanted to thank you for taking the time to make these.

I know how to not let today's head get to me, so even if I don't like a bald head I will know how to not let that get to me too. :)

      @@MrSweck71 Good luck dude. I have a bald friend who had this advice for me, and it made me feel better. He said : You're a man, and this is part of the path that men must walk. You should want things to happen to you that are part of being a man, because that's what you are.
      Honestly that's the best way of looking at it. Walking around with a newly bald head was a fascinating experience. The people whose opinions don't matter to me (strangers) didn't notice or treat me any different. The people who cared about me were happy for me. And the peace of mind that comes with it can't be overstated. I do miss my hair but hey this is just part of the journey.

    Easiest way to avoid irritation, apply a good moisturizing conditioner while shaving instead of a shaving cream and go slow. 2 passes with the grain and then a final pass against the grain. I shave 3 times a week and never once had visible irritation. Make sure to reapply the conditioner as often as needed. It keeps the skin smooth so the blade glides over the skin but still gets a very close shave. Never once nic'd myself this way. Once you're done shaving, apply a thin layer of conditioner as well to keep the skin moisturized. I never get any head acne or cuts. Always a smooth shaving. Also another pro to conditioner, if your razor needs changed and do you start to notice a bit or irritation ( red spots or marks on your head) the conditioner will help clear up that irritation in a few hours. Also, dont go cheap on the conditioner. You want a good quality one. I personally use OGX Nourshing + coconut milk. Smells great and really does the job well. This can be found at walmart

I'm probably gonna go and shave this weekend and these vids are helping me cope with that fact a LOT. my only anxiety comes from whether or not I'll look ok with a shaved head. I have never shaved my entire life and just don't know how I'll look lol. I liked my long hair over my shoulders just headbanging to death metal but I look diseased at this point lol. As I said I have a little anxiety on how I'll look shaved bc I have this weird pimple/spot on the back of my head so I don't know........... LOL

    I think if your hair is very dark then you need to shave it in. Mine is quite light so when I buzz it in very tight it looks consistent. That way I can generally avoid a wet shave.

    Right now, I'm doing a buzz cut once a week. So far that is working for me. I use the 1 guard, but it seems to grow back really fast, so I might to with the 0 guard. I love simplicity and by doing this I don't have to worry about it for the entire week. However, my baldness is going back from the front and not at the crown, so it's a good look for me, but if I was going bald at the crown, I might go with the complete shave.

    I got the big widow’s peaks by around 18. From 15-20 there was a rapid transition from large fibered, thick hair to low volume slower filling out hair. It was much harder to make it look good when I didn’t have much volume to play with. Past couple years I’ll just use a trimmer about once a week in the shower before I turn the water on and my hair has a perpetual 5-o’clock shadow look I dig. It’s so comfortable too I have never looked back.

    Hey lads .... as I’m in United Kingdom and British I recommend you find a decent Pakistani barber shop 👍 the barbers are generally highly skilled at doing cut throat razor head shaves . Mine does it that way and after he gives my scalp a rub over with an electric shaver . After that you get a natural small crystal block which is rubbed all over the scalp as an antiseptic . You can’t go wrong and generally you won’t pay much more than 6quid . Try a few different barbers see who yah feel right with and generally avoid Friday mornings till about after 3.30 as they’re always packed out for guys grooming themselves for Friday mosque prayers. Anyways shop around see who you click with 👌

    Wow I have the same exact hairless you are describing in this vid. I even went with the 3 on top and fade on the sides for the last 3 years. It just got to the point where my hairline was a little to high for my liking and before the week was up you could really see the thinning close to my hairline. I just buzzed it on sat with a 3/4 no guard and never really liked the look because I was able to still see the darker hair on the sides with different lighting. Im going to go down to a 0 no guard and just cut it every 2 days. This vid helped because I been undecided if other people can tell and I think they can. Regardless Its bothering me so I'm just do a 0.
    I will stay away from razors because Im scared of razor bumps.
    Question, how long does it take for you head to match your face? Im hispanic but im pretty lights skinned.

As for myself i shave my head daily, i use a foil shaver (whal 5 star. Available for professionals only). I use a after shave balm. Iike it clean and i feel better that way. By the way that is the #1 question i get. I also tell my clients once a month come to the shop for a face and head shave. With the service i provide a head and face massage.

    Can confirm. With a bald patch on top it just looks better if u shave it all off. For the guys who want to try and trimm it in different lengths. It works pretty well butt just with less difference between bald patch and rest of the hair. Let's say on the sides go with 1mm and on the sides with 3mm. No one will notice. U can still see that u have a part where u have less hair but it looks even. But u need to trimm that at least every 4-5 days max. The longer you wait the more the bald patch stands out. FYI I have pretty light skin and dark brown hair.

    I've got the same type of balding as u do and a good head-shape like yours. I usually head shave entirely every 2-3 days with a Braun S3 as it gives me a close enough shave just like a manual razor would do but without any razor burns or ingrown hairs. I've also got the Philips OneBlade but i prefer the Braun S3 for head shaves and use the former for facial and body shaves.

      Baldcafe It has been 8 years now since i've learnt to accept it. U're quite right, it makes u more confident and strong even though at first it is hard. Took me about 6 months to get over it. Regarding the Braun S3 i personally do a wet shave as the skin-pulling factor is less than a dry shave. I know some guys prefer dry shaves but i tend to find wet shaves much better for my skin and that's with both the Philips and the Braun. Btw love your vids :) !

      indeed, there is something therapeutical and relaxing about having a shaved head. Having a full head of hair myself but I had to go bald one time after messing up a trim. After that I always got tempted to shave my head whenever my hair got too long and I do that every few months if feeling in need for a different hairstyle. Now with January 1st, I decided to stay bald by choice for a whole year and I'm shaving every morning to keep that smooth head. It really is satisfying feeling the razor shaving away the stubble and feeling your smooth head afterwards.

    I buzz it every two days. However, I feel I have a conflict with myself now. Thanks to this channel I buzzed my head in Feb this year because I was obsessed about my receding hairline. I actually do like my head buzzed at 1mm now. However, I realised I am now obsessed to buzz every two days, if I leave one or two days longer, I don't feel really confortable. So I am not sure this is better than just letting grow my hair and just accepting balding without shaving/buzzing.
    What do you think? Some of you did go also through this?

    I also think the smooth shave looks best! It looks more like a style instead of just going bald and having to buzz it down. It also helps if you shave at the end of a warm shower for me personally. I do it almost every evening if I'm bald, it feels like the skin gets more used to it that way. I also don't like the look of a really short buzz cut on myself even though I'm not (yet) going bald, smooth is just more clean and tidy in my opinion.
