Looking for Smooth Baldness

I laughingly refer to myself as Velcro Woman, the superhero, because I still have "unsightly shaver stubble." I put that in quotes because it sounds like an ad from the 1970s. Anyway, I have a hard time shaving closely. I tried Headshave, Venus and my husband's Gilette. Still stubble. Any ideas how to get a smooth top? This is really silly, but has anyone tried waxing or a product like Nair (if that's still produced these days)?

Meanwhile, as I posted another place, I'm thinking of making felt Colorforms and putting the weather on my head each day like Miss Nancy did in Romper Room.

Oh! You've solved the mystery of why I'm getting patches again : ) Thanks for the belly laugh when I was feeling annoyed about the inconvenience of dark hair on light skin.

Hi Sandra...have you heard of Softsheen-Carson Magic Razorless Cream Shave? It comes in a tube and it is for a smooth bald head maintenance, that helps stop razor bumps. It is with Shea Butter.

I too hated the velcro head, happily I have not hair at all anymore and got that smooth look all over :) But when I did shave I used the Gillette Fushion with the vibrating head and would shave backwards then forwards several times but by the end of the day I would still have the velcro, I don't think you can really beat it, there's just some stubborn hairs that insist on growing! I wouldn't do the waxing what if it damages the root permanently?

I am looking for the same effect...smoothness w/o razor bumps.

Have You ever tried headblade?

I love headblade. Not only does it work well, it feels like a toy I can play with in the shower. I use their headslick, too.
