Every now and then i shave myself completely bald it feels amazing and cool...first time you do it it will feel strange having no hair but you get used to that after a couple of shaves...i do it by feel...i make a stroke on one strip...rub finger where i shaved then move over just a bit and repeat..when you mow down a chunk of it you can feel how much is gone...now i can just shave without doing that at all just move the razor over bit by bit do it in sections...if you have long hair clip it down first it will make the job easier...one thing i will add definately slap on some aftershave splash...lotion/balm..and later a mousturiser or body butter...your head will thank you as shaving strips alot of natural oils and can tend to at times make your head dryish....good luck
