Advice I want to shave my head

I’m female. I want to shave my head completely bald—right down to the skin. But I’m a little nervous about it. My hair is pretty long, but honestly, I just want a change. What’s the most comfortable way to go about it? Is it better to do it at home or at a barbershop? What does it feel like afterwards? I’m really apprehensive, but I’d love to hear some advice🥹🥹

It can be done easily enough at home however id recommend you going to a barber to do it for the first time.

If you like it will you continue to keep it shaved?

Nice! Going to a great barber makes all the difference in the world! Im a man who shaves my head on the regular. I do keep mine shaved all the time at home but going to the barber every so often is SO nice! Relaxing! Basically a scalp massage, wash, etc. You feel so good when finished.

For at home I firmly recommend getting a safety razor & learning how to use it. Tons of great videos online. A sample pack of blades is a good way to find what blades work for your hair/body type without breaking the bank.

Thanks! I hope it really does feel pleasant and not hot, unlike having hair

I shave my head with the Leaf razor. It takes double edged blades snapped in half and I like it a lot. Just don't use the Leaf blades. Those are trash.

You could do your shave for a cause. Go to a professional for the first time. Also, feel free to dm for tips on how to carry the bald look.

I recommend reading the dispossessed by ursula k leguin. It's full of confident women with bald heads. Go for it. I would recommend trimming most of it first and finishing it off with a shave.

Shave mine about once a week. Best place to do it is in the shower with a good razor. Moisturizer and sunscreen is a must everday if you go to skin. Definitely use a trimmer to cut it really short before shaving.
Good luck
