4 Tips For A Smooth Head Shave

• Use a new, multi-blade razor. It will give a closer shave and require fewer passes over sensitive scalp skin. (Make sure your barber uses a new blade, too, if you have it done professionally.)
• You can use the same kind of shaving cream or gel that you use to shave your face. To avoid irritation, though, it should be one made for sensitive skin. You basically need something gentle, without a lot of additives or fragrance,
• Work with a mirror, especially if you’re new at this. Start in an area you can see and that you have better control over, like the front or sides, as you get the feel of the razor. Your scalp will have curves and bumps that may not conform exactly to the razor, and you’re doing it blind in some areas, so you really have to get comfortable.
• And the most important tip… Don’t rush!
