1. Don’t throw out your shampoo.

It’s hard to see, but when you shave your head, there are a bunch of tiny hairs that remain, so dirt and oil can still build up over time. This means you will need to continue to shampoo your scalp.

Now, of course, you won’t need to use nearly as much as someone with shoulder-length hair, but you still need it nonetheless. Men, be sure to use a shampoo that’s targeted specifically for you.

Bald Guyz Daily Wash is a great product for bald dudes everywhere!

Also, to cut back on shine, check out HeadLube Matte.

2. Use sunscreen for protection.

Think of it this way: The hair on our head acts as a scalp protector, so when you’re bald, you’ll need to take a few extra steps to protect the skin on your head.

On those hot, summer days, lather on sunscreen or wear a hat to prevent sunburn and reduce your risk of skin cancer.

3. Moisturize.

There’s nothing sexy about razor bumps!

After shaving, always follow up with a lotion or gel afterward to keep that head of yours silky and smooth – Bald Guyz Moisture Gel is a great one!

During the cold winter months, don’t forget to moisturize to keep your scalp hydrated.

4. Repeat steps 1-3!
