I've been shaving my head for a while. I don't use a straight for it very often because I've got a scar on the back of my head that seems to get bigger every time I try.... or I end up with stubble around it.

Anyways, for anyone who's going to shave his head, you should get one of these:

I know we're all against cartridge razors here, but this thing is pretty cool. I've got the older version that takes Gillette Atra II blades. There's a new version that takes Mach 3 blades, but I've been avoiding it because I like fewer blades.

As for their other products, the headlube aftershave is a good moisturizer, the headslick is a decent shave cream for use with the headblade, but not with a straight. it doesn't lather enough, and it dries out quickly. Also, I don't have much luck using a regular (Poraso) lather with the cartridge blade... the lather plugs it up.

By the way, I do shave my face with a straight... that's why I'm here.
