I started going bald at 22, 30 now and I prefer being bald. You get so use to shaving your head and the money you save on shampoo is nice. I also learned when I started shaving my head was to get clippers to removes what you could as close to the skin as possible than move to the razor and with every stroke, rinse your razor until you find what works for you and until your scalp is use to the razor. When your rinse razor, fill your sink with water and shake it or tap it in the water. I was a dope and rubbed my thumb along razor and that fucks your thumb up. Lol.
@@diptanilchaki4328 In the beginning balding hits hard, real hard. Feels like you are losing part of your identity, i started to hate myself a lot. But one day i decided to shave my head, i was very embarrassed so i used a cap for months. One day i just decided to accept the new me, i took the cap and i went to a party, a girl liked my bald, i was so happy. So, what i can say is, mourn for your lost hair, but don't forget to accept your new self.
I shaved my head for the first time yesterday and, man, I wish I had done it sooner. It felt weird at first, almost like I wasn't touching my own head, but now I'm looking forward to the next shave. My lady LOVES it, too. She couldn't stop touching it.
My lady shaves my head every few days... although we figured out a much simpler system... bit of hair conditioner and a razor.... no way near as complicated as this guys set up and I never have issues. She enjoys it too - the way she sees it is that it's pretty black and white; a guy either looks good with a super juvenile strong square full head of hair or a clean shaved head - consistency is the key. Anything in between automatically gives negative subconscious associations of aging, but a man with a shaved head has a more mysterious allure because they clearly aren't 80 so it becomes almost a look in a sense. If that makes sense lol.
I'm still in my 20's but my hair starterd grow White and i can't stand this so i starterd to cut my hair at 0.2cm and some times i shave myself bald. Who needs hair anyway? 🤣🤣🤣
If you are shaving bald for the first time: _Do not shave against the grain._ You don't know if you have sensitive skin. You will also have irritation. So shave with the grain the first few times to get your skin used to it. Trust me.
@@Adrien_broner Whichever direction you brush or comb your hair for it to lay down smoothly is with the grain. Against is usually the opposite direction of how you normally brush or comb.
I lost my hair due to a procedure and didn’t accept it at first. I’m in shape and have a nice shaped head. I embraced the look and grew a nice low cut beard. Looks better than I imagined. Reinvent yourself and rock it with confidence. It’s all about your attitude
I followed this video to the 'T' 2 months ago to shave my aunt's head due excessive hair loss during her chemo treatments. It was her first time being bald and she felt insecure so I took scissors, then clippers to my hair and followed the same routine for my own head. It was my first time ever shaving my head and I didn't cut myself. I rate this video.
Thanks for this. Been bald for years and genuinely didn’t know how to fully shave my head without the razor bumps and discomfort. This is much appreciated.
Ive noticed as a man thinning on top when the times ive shaved bald, body and clothes can compliment the bald look. His look is well i think because of his fit tone arms, chest etc.. and fit shirt. I noticed shirts that fit well around my torso i look better bald. When a shirt is loose wrinkly i don't feel the same way about myself with baldness. Hit the gym and fit shirts are a must for baldies imo but do whats best for you too.
😂😂😂😂. The back of my neck looks like nestle crunch, my whole head is irritated… but I was shaving very wild going in 100 different directions… your comment made me scared to do it now. I met this older guy today he says he just uses hot water, shaving cream and a bic razor shaving against the grain.
Quality razor: 4 blades 0:56 Little Bowl and shaving cream Brush Mix cream in bowl with brush then apply to head (already shorn) Switch up blades after every 5 shaves or so. Follow grain of the head of first head shave. Use minimum pressure, it’s a fresh razor. Rinse out excess cream and hair in razor. Use one single blade for the back of the ears 4:40 Shave the head crease lol Steam towel 5:30 Wrap head in the towel. Helps to prevent ingrown hairs Use an astringent around the back of neck to avoid bumps.

I'm happy to see bald women embrace the look too in this sexist world we live in they needs to get with the style mullets are out again and bald head is in hate it or love it
Thanks for the tutorial dude it was really informative. Being a bald man I am sick of getting ingrown hairs and having a bumpy head. If I have to be bald I want to at least have a nicely shaved head
Hey men as a lady i just wanna say you look real nice bald especially if you have a well kept beard and eyebrows 😉😍 If your hair is thinning and you're considering going bald do it this man looks great
OMG!!! I neeeeded this video! I’m a bald woman and has issues with razor bumps. I stopped shaving with a razor because of it. But the clippers don’t get close enough. Then I started using a skull shaver and it was just as bad as the razor. I can’t wait to follow your steps!!!
How did it go for you? I’m a bald woman as well but I just started. I have been trying to find a good razor to avoid bumps and rashes. Sensitive skin, but also dry scalp so I can’t use too much alcohol. Any tips on a razor?
GURLLLL!! When I say he was on point, I’m not lying!!! I told my husband I wanted to kiss this wonderful man in the mouth!!! I wanted to do a tutorial of his process and my supplies, but I have no idea how to do it. These are my supplies: Gillette Skin guard razor. I shave with the grain only. I use Aveno Therapeutic shave gel ( helps prevent razor bumps) Witch Hazel for all over my head after his hot towel process and then I finish it up with Tend Skin around my hairline like he does in that video. I used to get razor bumps so bad and so painful I only trimmed my hair with trimmers. But with me having alopecia you could still see my bald spot. THIS RIGHT HEEEEERRREEEE!!! Truly saved my disappointment with shaving. I used the tend skin around my hairline every day. And I shave every 3 days. No more. If I go too long before shaving I use my trimmers to take it down, then shave with using his process. Like I said, I want to kiss this man in the mouth!😍😍😍
I forgot, I moisturizer after using the Tend skin with Aveeno positively radiant daily moisturizer. It includes SPF 15. It’s the same moisturizer I use on my face. So I figured it would be just as good on my scalp.
@@aliciameier9687 not you tellinn ya husband you wanted to kiss him in the mouth 😭😂💀 but aaayyeee okay okay!! Thank you so much!! I’ll see about it! Prayerfully razor bump free and a nice smooth head for me!
Hello love, don’t give up and there’s still hope for you love and you don’t have to be bald if you don’t want to and that shaving your head bald is not the only solution when you’re hair is going bald or falling out. Just to let you know that i am an hair growth and scalp and follicle care specialist and I’ve been researching and educating myself about hair loss and hair growth issues and bald spots and hair thinning and thin edges and alopecia and alopecia areata for about almost 6 years now so I know a lot about hair growth and hair loss, so definitely let know if you want to know more… @LeBeautiful •
3 questions: 1. you’re using long strokes, but usually short strokes are advised 2. I presume if the hair is grown out a bit, it’s a good idea to use a clipper first and cut it down first? 3. What about one of those single-blade safety razors like bevel? Similar procedure?’or do you recommend the multi-blade style?
Exactly what I was after. I'm dealing with severe alopecia that left me with a 3-4inches circular hairless patch just above the hairline on top of my head, and numerous other spots all over. I just went for it last night and shaved it all off, and I'm kinda mind blown by how great it looks. Thanks for the detailed how-to!
Man my 6 year son has the same problem since he was about 3. Been having to shave his head to even it out, so I do it to so that he doesnt have to go it alone
Definitely an advocate for the head shave. Great tips but would recommend either a hot towel or shower prior. This is more to get the hair roots to stand. I tend to finish with a smal amount of bay rum on my bonce
How often do you have to shave in order to keep the clean bald look? Currently transitioning but I’m on the stubble phase. I have yet to use the razor but this tutorial makes me more comfortable with phasing on to this.
I'm balding slightly but I know in a few years I'm probably gonna shave it. Not really worried anymore, vids like these kinda get me feeling the bald look
I have feared going back to the razor after experiencing that "Nestle Crunch" look. I've been using clippers but it's not as clean as I want it, after watching this video I have the confidence to try it again. I got all the tools so I'm excited to give it a go. Thanks for the video.
@@josefinafinosa7502 I followed the instructions step for step. And let me tell you. I love it! Bye bye clippers. I don't get any razor bumps at all. No irritation. And I get a close clean shave.
I started out with balding clippers to gillette fusion to remington balder pro. For the last 3 months I've been using The Leaf razor and it is by far my go to. The razor is kinda expensive but the blades are super cheap and it will pay for itself in a year or less. It uses single edge blades. I use it with Arko shave soap and a boar hair shaving brush. I get absolutely no bumps. For my face I've been using a Merkur 34C safety razor with Taylor of Old Bond Street shaving cream or Cremo shaving cream. My face stay smooth and bump free. I've been using the safety razor for a good 15yrs. After my shave I use a Alum block and finish my head off with a moisturizer. Same with my face. Anybody who gets shaving bumps should definitely use a safety razor.
I use Tend Skin as an astringent as well... I love it. I follow it up with Nivea Cooling Post Shave Balm. No razor bumps!! I've been shaving my head for 18 years.
I have sensitive skin and no matter what razor, clippers or even cream I use I still get razor bumps whenever I bald my head. And I do use astringents like tend and bump patrol, in addition to trying out a whole lot of other products I see promoted to stop/prevent razor bumps.
Hey I use to bump up and could use a razor so tried warm water a shave gel not a cream stick hydro 4 blade razor going with the grain not against rinse with witch hazel cold water and moisturizer with aloe vera gel
hi GQ just trying to give my hubby a bold shave for his cuz wedding and wifie going to do it and youtube to the rescue and your step to step was very understanding I just don't want any razor bumps on his head thz.
If you're a girl and want to do something spontaneous and crazy and your curious then do it. But don't keep it bald . Short hair is masculine and not attractive in women.
@@mattwiththegat2848 For some it does. Depends on how sensitive your skin is and how thick your hair is, and how skilled you are with the razor. I can shave my head against the grain without issues, but only if I shave with the grain first and do it very carefully. However, any shaving against the grain is never really a good idea, for any dudes. It's a do it at your own risk kinda thing.
I'm 50/50 on shaving it off my top is thinning but doesn't look bad with a bald fade and longer on top. But my haircuts are like 65$ with tip. If I just do a beard cut I'd be saving some money mannn lmao. And I could probably end up learning to line up my own beard and save all that money. Decisions decisions.
I have pink and black split dyed longish short hair and I don’t really take care of it and it’s just becoming a bother to me at this point I’m thinking of just shaving my head not like bald but shaved
Can someone please tell me how many milimeter these 3 different ways are? (1.trimming with zero guard 2.shaving with electric shaver 3.regular razor) And does shaving with regular razor also remove the dead skincells which is better for scalp health?
there is a first time for everybody I wasn't bald when I asked my barber to shave my head I had head injury's in a car accident and wanted to see how my head looked and my dad wanted me to
I'm shaving my head bald since 2012. I relied on a lot of materials to moisturize and help in shaving, such as moisturizing creams, shower gels, and so on. I now only rely on lemon juice to moisturize the scalp, then I shave the hair in the direction of hair growth, and then shave against the direction of hair growth for more smoothness. Sometimes I rely on water only to moisturize the scalp. No need for all those chemicals U have mentioned
Thank you for that. I have been thinking about shaving my balding head off, thanks for the motivational words at the end. I'm hoping I'll look great and start to love myself again :) thank you
Thanks man. Been struggling with this as its new for me. I can grow hair.. I just get an itchy scalp and that goes away when I shave. I have been struggling shaving and I got the razor type wrong. I also like the bald head feel. It does feel nice. Wish I had your lovely skin tone :-)
As a black man I don’t put a razor on the back of my neck I use my andis trimmers and shave my neck, then I go with the grain with my Gillette proglide razor, I never go against the grain every black man has different skin but for me this works best
I have had low cuts, fades, and bald fades for years. I am totally losing the hair on my head. I'm almost 40 now, my pops went through the same thing. My twin brother is fine though, he gots dreads. I joke about him thinking he's cool because he can grow hair. My question tho, is what do you do about sweating? I feel like it's easily noticed bald. I have noticed that even w/ the amount of hair I have I noticed sweating is not as noticeable. Does any body else notice it's easier to sweat when you're bald?
Woooow this would come out three days after shaving my head bald for the first time ever 😩😭the back my head has bumps & that’s literally the first thing he mentions in the video🙄🤣
So I had a few questions about this method: 1. Do we shave with the grain or against? He seems to just shave straight back for most of the movements. 2. Also, was this done after showering and washing your hair? Just didn’t see those steps prior or notes about treatment.
I been shaving my head for seven years now. I’ve had to go through growing pains with what razors to use hand pressure etc. If you still wanna shave your face I would consider a safety razor 🪒
I had breast cancer but i am in remission. Going to the barber can get expensive. Within two weeks hairhas grown. I dont have alot of hair. Great tutorial . Lastly can you tell me the name of the razor . Thanks
Kitty Kitty bump cream is flawless. It doesn’t smell astringent and is a light lotion that absolutely will have you looking smooth. I used it for years on my ingrown hairs after a face shave and they never returned. A bottle will last you 3 months easily. Price range about 12 bucks I think.
Behind the ears is a real problem. Not seeing many videos with advice as to how to get that area right behind your ears when shaving your own head. Anyone have any ideas? This technique will not get the hairs really behind your ears (no matter how far you pull them forward) or just above your ear. Any advice would be appreciated.
I want to shave my head. I shave myself with a clippers and I want to try with razor and I have like 1.5cm long hair. Can I start with razor or I need to start with clippers then with razor?

@@Adrien_broner Whichever direction you brush or comb your hair for it to lay down smoothly is with the grain. Against is usually the opposite direction of how you normally brush or comb.

How it turned out to be? What's your new thoughts on shaving head with razors?
@@josefinafinosa7502 I followed the instructions step for step. And let me tell you. I love it! Bye bye clippers. I don't get any razor bumps at all. No irritation. And I get a close clean shave.
How often do you shave with the razor? I too am nervous about going back to razor shaving after bumping up bad.
I started out with balding clippers to gillette fusion to remington balder pro. For the last 3 months I've been using The Leaf razor and it is by far my go to. The razor is kinda expensive but the blades are super cheap and it will pay for itself in a year or less. It uses single edge blades. I use it with Arko shave soap and a boar hair shaving brush. I get absolutely no bumps. For my face I've been using a Merkur 34C safety razor with Taylor of Old Bond Street shaving cream or Cremo shaving cream. My face stay smooth and bump free. I've been using the safety razor for a good 15yrs. After my shave I use a Alum block and finish my head off with a moisturizer. Same with my face. Anybody who gets shaving bumps should definitely use a safety razor.
I just shaved my head for the first time. It's great! I wish I had watched this video first though.
Clean shaven head looks so classy & very stylish 💯👍✨

Lol!
just started shaving my head, thanks for this! Great tips. Need the name of those lofi beats tho.
New razors and steamed rag is a game changer, thank you soo much for the advice
I use Tend Skin as an astringent as well... I love it. I follow it up with Nivea Cooling Post Shave Balm. No razor bumps!! I've been shaving my head for 18 years.
I have sensitive skin and no matter what razor, clippers or even cream I use I still get razor bumps whenever I bald my head. And I do use astringents like tend and bump patrol, in addition to trying out a whole lot of other products I see promoted to stop/prevent razor bumps.
Hey I use to bump up and could use a razor so tried warm water a shave gel not a cream stick hydro 4 blade razor going with the grain not against rinse with witch hazel cold water and moisturizer with aloe vera gel
I just started shaving .. not by choice , but you sir inspire me ! Ty
Anyone know which razor he is using? I’m ordering one and finally taking the plunge 😅
hi GQ just trying to give my hubby a bold shave for his cuz wedding and wifie going to do it and youtube to the rescue and your step to step was very understanding I just don't want any razor bumps on his head thz.
This man created a hairline with the cream, that’s how you know he misses them good old days of the locs 😂😂😂
youre an idiot, he put shaving cream where he needs to shave i.e where theres hair.
I’m bald. I like it better than my locs
@@AishaOLewa be politr
2:36 his shaving cream hair look more fresh than my hair
Same 😂🥲
He’s gorgeous and I’m about ready to shave my head to because I’m sick of having hair and maintaining it tbh 😭
Go for it 🙈
Don'ttt
Haha didn't this look like a lot of maintenance to u ? :p
If you're a girl and want to do something spontaneous and crazy and your curious then do it. But don't keep it bald . Short hair is masculine and not attractive in women.
@W Exactly
I Am new to the bald head game, I have not achieved the cleanest and smoothness like your head yet, thanks for the advice.
I absolutely love this. I have almost the same way of shaving, head and everything. Thanks mane. Great video
The comments are so wholesome ❤️🥰
Is it recommended to shave with a single edge razor? I feel multiple blades will also add to the nestle crunch bar effect LOL.
Do multiple blades but Don't shave against the grain.
All Imma say for my black folk out there, do not shave against the grain...atleast not the back of your head. Razor bump frenzy.
Does the same go for white dudes? cause I just shaved against the grain lol
@@mattwiththegat2848 For some it does. Depends on how sensitive your skin is and how thick your hair is, and how skilled you are with the razor. I can shave my head against the grain without issues, but only if I shave with the grain first and do it very carefully. However, any shaving against the grain is never really a good idea, for any dudes. It's a do it at your own risk kinda thing.
Umm... I always shave against the grain and my skin looks good
What creature I am?
I shave both ways and never get any bumps I don’t even use any of the things he used ,,ex after shave,moisturizer just shaving cream and water
@Kalunda_Sanford 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😭😭😭☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️bro that comparison tho😂😂😂😂😂
Any link where we can buy the shaver and the other products you are using please?
I'm 50/50 on shaving it off my top is thinning but doesn't look bad with a bald fade and longer on top. But my haircuts are like 65$ with tip. If I just do a beard cut I'd be saving some money mannn lmao. And I could probably end up learning to line up my own beard and save all that money. Decisions decisions.
I just started to shave my head and this was so helpful and I have no regrets on shaving my head ☺️
Thank you Ice Cube,
Since my hair is thinning, I'm definitely shaving it off. Real man shave their heads during their bald phase
I have pink and black split dyed longish short hair and I don’t really take care of it and it’s just becoming a bother to me at this point I’m thinking of just shaving my head not like bald but shaved
Did he draw a shape up with that brush at 2:12
5:47 you knew it’s at the right temperature when it’s touchable😊😅
feel like TH-cam is telling me something 🤔
Facts
Well just give it a try!
Can someone please tell me how many milimeter these 3 different ways are? (1.trimming with zero guard 2.shaving with electric shaver 3.regular razor)
And does shaving with regular razor also remove the dead skincells which is better for scalp health?
I'm scared to use anything with more than one blade on my head cause I get razor bumps easily
Whenever i shave my head i always get a few bunps so will follow this routine see if that helps
I’m not balding or losing my hair but I really wanna try going bald.
That’s how I started doing mine. I’m not balding at all but it’s a good look
there is a first time for everybody I wasn't bald when I asked my barber to shave my head I had head injury's in a car accident and wanted to see how my head looked and my dad wanted me to
Nice thanks I just cut all my hair off today. Thanks for the tips
Try using a safety razor to shave your face, ever since I switched to one I never have any of the same issues you mentioned with a cartridge razor
Thanks bro, going to get my supplies 👏🏾💪🏾
I shaved my head bald a few days ago bc of trich and documented it, i have a lot of videos on my channel about it. so freeing and liberating.
I’m 15 with bald spots on my hair, might try going bald
How do you know which direction to shave?
Can you list all your products including razor.
I'm shaving my head bald since 2012. I relied on a lot of materials to moisturize and help in shaving, such as moisturizing creams, shower gels, and so on. I now only rely on lemon juice to moisturize the scalp, then I shave the hair in the direction of hair growth, and then shave against the direction of hair growth for more smoothness. Sometimes I rely on water only to moisturize the scalp. No need for all those chemicals U have mentioned
Which cartridge razor you recommend me for head shaving. Sincerely youre best that you use .
Thank you for that. I have been thinking about shaving my balding head off, thanks for the motivational words at the end. I'm hoping I'll look great and start to love myself again :) thank you
Doesn't going against the grain cause bumps?
Thanks man. Been struggling with this as its new for me. I can grow hair.. I just get an itchy scalp and that goes away when I shave. I have been struggling shaving and I got the razor type wrong. I also like the bald head feel. It does feel nice. Wish I had your lovely skin tone :-)
Is that the Gillette fusion pro glide razor?
Thanks for this I’m definitely balding and hair thinning this video is great
Yea. My man looks great. Been doing my head bald for a while now, and I really appreciate your tips.
As a black man I don’t put a razor on the back of my neck I use my andis trimmers and shave my neck, then I go with the grain with my Gillette proglide razor, I never go against the grain every black man has different skin but for me this works best
Godbless you always and your family. I want a sincerely opion which cartridge razor is the best for head shaving.
I have had low cuts, fades, and bald fades for years. I am totally losing the hair on my head. I'm almost 40 now, my pops went through the same thing. My twin brother is fine though, he gots dreads. I joke about him thinking he's cool because he can grow hair. My question tho, is what do you do about sweating? I feel like it's easily noticed bald. I have noticed that even w/ the amount of hair I have I noticed sweating is not as noticeable. Does any body else notice it's easier to sweat when you're bald?
Solid tips, and very well structured.
Woooow this would come out three days after shaving my head bald for the first time ever 😩😭the back my head has bumps & that’s literally the first thing he mentions in the video🙄🤣
LITERALLY same. I seen this three days afta shavin bald. Them bumps no joke 🤣
@@ManzaLive First time shaving ur head is always like this. Even if u had seen a lot of videos, would not matter. U get better with time and practice.
So I had a few questions about this method:
1. Do we shave with the grain or against? He seems to just shave straight back for most of the movements.
2. Also, was this done after showering and washing your hair?
Just didn’t see those steps prior or notes about treatment.
I been shaving my head for seven years now. I’ve had to go through growing pains with what razors to use hand pressure etc. If you still wanna shave your face I would consider a safety razor 🪒
Thank you so much! I'm learning so I can keep my husband's head up. This was very helpful ❤
Anyone else use this method? Because I breakout on the back of my neck too. And I find that clippers are annoying to use
Thanks. Came out great for me💪🏾✊🏾
Thanks now I can shave my sisters head while she’s sleeping
I had breast cancer but i am in remission. Going to the barber can get expensive. Within two weeks hairhas grown. I dont have alot of hair. Great tutorial . Lastly can you tell me the name of the razor . Thanks
Really great video ! Definitely going to use this technique for my next shave 😎
Kitty Kitty bump cream is flawless. It doesn’t smell astringent and is a light lotion that absolutely will have you looking smooth. I used it for years on my ingrown hairs after a face shave and they never returned. A bottle will last you 3 months easily. Price range about 12 bucks I think.
I just started shaving my head. Great video. Thanks
I just purchased a Braun 9 series. Do I have to use shaving cream?
Behind the ears is a real problem. Not seeing many videos with advice as to how to get that area right behind your ears when shaving your own head. Anyone have any ideas? This technique will not get the hairs really behind your ears (no matter how far you pull them forward) or just above your ear. Any advice would be appreciated.
I want to shave my head. I shave myself with a clippers and I want to try with razor and I have like 1.5cm long hair. Can I start with razor or I need to start with clippers then with razor?
@Roter Schneefüchs thank you
