Quick View Section Links for “Skincare for a Bald Head”:
Bald heads are super stylish, have a lot of character, and can be low-maintenance. The important thing to know is your scalp skin deserves the same attention as the skin on our face because it is completely exposed to all the elements without the protection of hair. You should definitely adopt a post shave skincare regimen as well as daily care.
Proof has made it super quick and simple to keep your bald head in tip top shape.
Balding and or Shaving
For some it’s a choice and for some it isn’t. Luckily for men, shaving your head bald is a hot fashion statement. But let’s not forget the women! Whether it’s your choice, a health condition or genetics, you have to take care of your scalp, just like you do your face. Embrace your baldness! Anyone can pull it off.
There could be lots of reasons you are losing your hair. Hormones can cause the hair to change and shrink the follicles. In a lot of cases it’s genetics. Look around at your relatives and you should notice a pattern. In some cases it is for medical reasons and may be temporary.
Hair generally protects your scalp from the sun and the elements, not to mention your shampoo and conditioning treatments. Once you choose to shave all your hair off, you will need to treat your scalp even more carefully than you do your face as it has direct sun access.
Things To Consider When Going Bald
There is a lot of maintenance! Having a clean shaved head means upkeep. You have to also be careful of ingrown hairs which can cause bumps, irritation and infection. The best way to start is to consult with a barber. He can check your scalp and see if you have the type of hair that is prone to ingrown hairs and he can guide you on the proper way to shave your head.
Let’s Get Started
To get started, you should trim your hair down as short as possible. The best way to do this is with some good clippers. Next, place a hot towel on your head. This will open up the pores and soften up the hair you are about to shave. Place shaving cream all over the surface of your head to soften up the hair even more. Rinse the blade after every stroke. Make sure to check around your head with a handheld mirror to make sure you got every single spot.
You’ve Finished, But You Aren’t Done
Now it’s time to add a few easy steps to your daily routine to keep your new look on point. You will notice that your scalp is very shiny. Just remember that your scalp has been covered all this time and shiny is completely natural. After your shave, refresh your skin with a cold towel and then once dry apply a soothing moisturizer like Proof’s MUGSHOT for Men. This will calm and condition your freshly shaved scalp. If you get razor burn, use a drop of aloe vera gel to soothe the irritated skin.
To maintain your scalp daily, use Proof’s POLISH+ cleanser. Gently massage your scalp with the cleanser. It will remove debris, dead skin and leave you feeling refreshed. You can do this while you do it to your face in the shower if you like. Doing this once or twice a day will help keep your skin soft and clean. A bald head can have dirt and oils build up, so gently using POLISH+ will help you keep your scalp as clean as possible.
Next, always use MUGSHOT for Men. This will moisturize and place a barrier of protection over your scalp. Lastly, never forget to up SPF. Your fresh scalp will burn easy if you don’t protect it. If you are going to be in direct sunlight for an extended period of time, we recommend also adding a hat. You should always keep SPF with you just in case you end up in the sun and need to refresh.
