Today was the day to defoliate my head as much as possible.
It's been awhile since I shaved so to lighten the load on the amount of cut offs the soap and razor needed to handle I pre shaved with a battery powered "groomer" (looks like a tiny hair cutter for the head). That worked great! It produced a beard that resembled just a few days of growth.
I also gave myself a buzz cut. I saw an electric head shaver on TV and setting up for a haircut is an aggravation, but running a head shaver over the head every few days would be a piece of cake. FWIW, I have head shaved with a SE razor, but that removed thin slices of scar tissue and I prefer not doing that again. It didn't cause pain beyond the thought of what had happened. I prefer short hair, but that means a hair cut. I can live with maintaining a bald head to keep the ease of maintenance if the maintenance is easy. Does that make sense?

Twice a week I shave my head, usually three passes with a injector, or an cart-unmentionable. I have been wondering about those electric thang-a-mabobs. Let us know how it works out for you.
