Ummmmm, guys, if you shave your head do you HAVE to do it everyday??

Just saw an advertisement about a new shaver for heads, as well as other areas, but mostly for heads, and was wondering do you have to shave your head everyday??

No, I do not, but I wear a cap most of the time so it really doesn't matter that much. Ferrets are Cool Sep 2023 #2

That's my plan too, but I rarely follow through. Gotta look for that skull shaver you recommended! emulatorloo Sep 2023 #8

...every 2 or 3 weeks in the summer.

In the winter I just let it grow from there except at the beginning of the holiday season, I buzz it it once just to neaten up my appearance a little bit.

More because if I wait much longer it gets too long for an electric shaver than want it to be stubble free. I have a Mohawk so it can get out of control real quick if I wait as well.
I got one of those Pitbull Skull Shavers and it is honestly one of the best electric shavers I’ve used. Since I work from home I usually just shave while I’m at my computer for work, and with the skull shaver I can do it by feel without a mirror.

IIRC, there was one around $70, one around $100, and one around $200. I got the middle option.
I had a cheap one from China, it was okay but a pain to clean. It jammed badly.

I buzzcut mine every week or so with a hair clipper and a 1/2" comb. But I'm not trying to impress anybody.
