A properly shaved head.
Baldness is an almost inevitable part of many people's lives. There isn't a single cause of baldness, but some of the most common are illness, hormonal problems or simply a combination of genetics and old age. Some people choose to hide their baldness with wigs or toupees while others accept the baldness and choose to shave their entire head. When choosing that latter, you must take proper precautions to ensure satisfactory results.
Instructions
1. Cut your hair with hair clippers at the shortest setting. The shorter the hair is, the easier it will be to shave.
2. Soak your head in warm water for two minutes to open up the pores and soften the hair. You can soak your head under running water in the shower or simply submerge it in a sink full of water.
3. Rub a liberal amount of shaving cream to your entire scalp. A thick (1/4-inch) layer of shaving cream should be enough to provide lubrication and protection.
4. Hold a razor at the hairline on the top of your forehead and slowly shave back about 5 inches. Move the razor over and shave a new strip directly beside the first. Repeat this until the entire top of your head is shaved.
5. Position the razor in front of your ear where sideburns grow. Shave upward in a straight line until you reach the top of your head.
6. Move the razor to just above your ear, directly beside the first shaven strip on the side of your head. Shave upward until you reach the top of your head. Continue moving back and shaving strips until the entire side is shaven.
7. Repeat the process for the other side of your head.
8. Position the razor at the bottom of your hairline on the back of your head. Slowly shave upward in a straight strip until you reach the top. Continue to shave the remaining hair in strips until you are completely bald.
9. Rinse your head under running water. Examine it to make sure you didn't miss any spots. If you notice any missed spots, simply shave them with a razor.
