Head shaving machine

Shaving the head is a very responsible and painstaking task. After all, you must carefully get rid of all the hair - and at the same time avoid cuts. To do this, you need to know what could be a shaving machine and how to choose it correctly.

Shaving the head is a process in which the hair is completely removed from the surface of the skin (and in such a way that neither the look nor the hand can detect them). To achieve this effect, you must use the right tool. Not only the quality of the performed procedure, but also its safety will depend on the choice and proper operation.

That is why it is very important for men (and in some cases for women) to choose the most suitable head shaving machine that can be regularly used without fear for their safety and for the quality of the result.

To completely shave the hair from the surface of the head, both in the barbershop and at home, you can use the following machines:

1. An ordinary hair clipper. In this case, do not use any nozzles and shear to zero. To achieve a perfectly shaved skin in this case is impossible, since the length of the remaining hair will be at least 1 mm. This procedure can not even be called a shave - it is more ultrashort haircut. But in cases where the scalp is very sensitive, when there is a lot of damage on it, this option fits very well.
2. A trimmer is a device that has been on sale recently. It is used to correct the beard, to remove hair in the ears, nose, and also for the correction and design of eyebrows. Such a wide range of applications made one wonder whether it is possible to shave their head. It should be understood that such a procedure is very long, and it is impossible to perform it only in cases where there are practically no hairs on the head. It is better to still give preference to a 3 in 1 trimmer, as it has more power.
3. The electric razor has long been used precisely as a razor for the head. It is better to give preference not to rotor models, but net ones. So you can not be afraid to get a cut or irritation after the procedure. But in some cases (for example, with too thick vegetation on the head or a special structure of the skull) it is simply not possible to finish the desired smoothness of the skin using this device. An electric shaver also cannot be used in cases where the scalp is damaged or irritated.
4. Straight razor. From the name itself it is already clear that it is not worth using such a device as a shaving machine at home, the risk of injury is too great. Yes, and in the salons of its use today, refuse more often. However, using such a machine, you can achieve the desired smoothness of the head, but you can also get a big injury, and the result will be short-lived.
5. Normal shaving machine. Such a device for shaving won the most popular among supporters of the home of the procedure. It allows you to achieve the desired smoothness of the skin as quickly as possible. The machine is quite safe and does not require special skills to use. And you can shave bald with its use regularly - without any help.

If you need to shave the hair at the very root, it is better to give preference to either a regular razor or a straight razor. In this case, the first can be used at home, but shaving hairs with a dangerous machine is recommended only in the salon. These two devices are suitable for use only in cases where there is no damage to the epidermis, and the scalp is not very sensitive.

When there are a lot of injuries on the head, and the shape of the skull differs in protuberances, it is better to use an ordinary hair clipper (without attachments). Ideal smoothness can not be achieved, but it will be possible to avoid complications after shaving.

When choosing a hair clipper, trimmer or electric shaver, they are used in the usual way. In all other cases, shaving the head is as follows:

1. Too long hairs are shortened with scissors or a typewriter.
2. The head is thoroughly washed, rinsed and slightly dried.
3. Apply a special tool for shaving. It may be a gel or foam.
4. The tool must be absorbed into the upper layer of the epidermis - within a couple of minutes.
5. Hair begins to shave from the head in the direction of the forehead and to the neck. So you need to handle the entire head, strip by strip.
6. Leftovers are carefully removed from the skin with a damp cloth.
7. Shaving aid is reapplied to the skin.
8. Now the movement of the machine should be carried out against the growth of hair. First, process the forehead and the top of the head, then shave the hairs on the temporal parts, in the end - on the back of the head.
9. After the procedure, the head is thoroughly washed in warm water and wiped dry.
10. The skin is treated with aftershave lotion.

Shaving the head is a rather complicated and painstaking process, although at first glance it may seem the opposite. If it is performed for the first time, then it is best to contact a hairdresser. The specialist will not only tell in detail and show how such a shave is performed, but also help you choose the most suitable machine for shaving your head - depending on the type of skin and hair, as well as the structure of the skull. In the future, such a haircut can already be done at home on your own.
