The other investment I made was in a tube of HeadSlick. This is basically shaving cream, but they formulate it especially for your head. Which believe it or not, is some pretty sensitive skin, so you do have to be careful with what you put on it. This turned out to be a worthy investment. Just before leaving for the beach, the bottom of my Edge Gel can ruptured. Just a pin hole, but enough for the gel to start foaming out. This is the second can in a row to suffer a failure in the material. The last time it occurred when I wasn't around and I came home to a drawer full of foam. Anyway, since it happened as I was packing up, it meant I ended up down here at the beach with no shaving cream. Well, the HeadSlick stuff says it is good for everything from the head on down. So, I also tried it on my face. I'd have to rate it about 10 times better than regular shaving cream in creating a nice, slick shaving surface. Awesome, really. The only thing that was kind of questionable for me was the fact that it was mentholated and when I was doing my face, I could really smell that. Not sure how I liked that, but I'm sure I'll learn to live with it, if not like it.
After I finished up and put some aftershave cream on my head, I decided to order some HeadLube Lotion. I've been using some cream from Adidas (I don't think they make it any more). It works pretty well, but I figured if the HeadSlick was so much better than regular shaving cream, the HeadBlade folks must know what they are doing and I wanted in on some of that. I went for the glossy version as I prefer a nice, shiny head. I also ordered some HeadShade sunscreen from the HeadBlade folks. It is a fine line trying to get the head tanned as quickly as possible, but not getting sunburned.
So I have another couple days down here at the beach to get outside and let my head soak in the sun.
