Nothing a styptic match didn't fix. I've gone over my head again this morning and already it felt easier and only 1 nick. I am converted. I hope it cures the ingrowing hairs. I'm going to try my wife's DE next to see if it's any easier - then I'll decide if I get myself a DE for my head, or stick with the SRs.
If I don't keep up with shaving my head, I'll get ingrown hairs regardless of what I do to prevent them—they are the antagonists in my head shaving narrative.
