How to shave your head

How to shave your head

1. Prep your head

It’s time to show your loaf some love. To start, wet your head with warm water and wash with a cleansing lotion.

If you haven’t shaved for a while, it’s a good idea to trim your hair first using a clipper – longer hairs are likely to get tangled in your razor. Ouch!

2. Apply shaving cream

Next, rinse off and apply shaving cream or foam to your head and/or face (channel your inner yeti).

Start shaving the top or side of your head to get comfortable with the razor, using a light, even stroke. Move to the back of your head, feeling for any missed patches.

3. Shave in the shower

Shave with the grain at first. To get an even closer finish, shave slightly against the grain.

For the best experience try shaving in the shower. Our super-grippy, wide handle is designed to be used in the shower.

TIP: If you’re not comfortable shaving in the shower, try shaving straight after a shower. The steam will make your hair easier to cut.

4. Cleanse & moisturise

Rinse thoroughly with water and pat dry with a towel. Relieve and soothe the shaved area with a liberal application of moisturiser.

Now sit back and check out your silky-smooth dome in the mirror.

TIP: If you suffer from shaving bumps, shave with the grain and use a shaving cream for sensitive skin with a specialist post-shave lotion.
