    Just thought I'd pass along this note, today was the first time I've run a straight across my dome in many months. Job went nice and smooth. No nicks and gladly no tugging

    That's great. When I get the guys to try again, I'll post pics (hope you're not squeamish)

    I though about posting a pic, but I'm sitting here at work so I decided against it

    Got my order from Headblade, Lotion Matte finish. Does what it says kills any shine and seems to last. I only used it once so far, and am happy with the results, seems worth it. They sent along Headshed (scrub), and shave cream samples with a couple of stickers, and 3 or 4 coupons for a $1 off and they don't expire until 2016, so that was an unexpected suprise. When I order something I usually don't get freebies, it's a nice touch.
    I've used there shave cream before, it's very slick but stinks (heavy menthol and not in a good way). I wish they would come up with something a little more tradtional in their line up as far as that goes.

Now that spring is here and I've all ready burnt my bald head (happens every year) you would think I would remember after 20 yrs., what about sun block....currently using HeadBlade 30 SPF, it seems okay to me. What might you guys be using to block the rays from your bald heads?
    I use the razorock as well to put on my shaved dome after each head shave I also use copper one 50 in the summer and headblade 30 the rest of the year

    I often switch back and forth, depending on my mood

    Default What brand alum block for an oily sweaty head?

Then run a Alum block along my head and allow it to dry not wiping it off by towel. Then I apply witch hazel afterwords. I do not use aftershave on my head. I do not suffer from a oily head anymore. Have been doing it for years. Hope it helps.
    This has been my issue... What brand Alum block do you use???

    Honestly, I bought the cheapest alum block that I could find on eBay. I bought 3 blocks. Just awesome. Next time I buy some (which will be because I drop & smash them, not because they wear away) I'm going to go for, maybe, the second cheapest.

    I shave my head with a King of Shaves disposable cartridge razor (2 passes) or my Merkur 37C with a Feather blade (just the 1 pass required) and use whichever shave soap I'm using on my chin with my straights, usually Mitchells Wool Fat or Proraso "green". After a cold water rinse I rub a small amount of E45 moisturiser on, works for me.
