Hey everyone,

On Saturday I took the plunge and shaved my head with the Remington Balder Pro in the shower. It came out great, unfortunately on Monday my scalp started to get increasingly itchy… now it’s Wednesday and I’m struggling not to scratch.. I moisturized, used sun screen, used an after shave balm and nizoral shampoo… after all of those things it’s still very very itchy.

Anyone have experience and suggestions? If the itchiness doesn’t go away I’m afraid that I’ll permanently have to wear a hat.

Edit: my wife bought tea tree oil so I’m trying that

I see a few options.

I am using a brand new, just opened cleaning solution, with a brand new series 9 cassette. Placed the shaver in the station, it beeps, the shaver light up w battery bars and droplet icon but it won't start cleaning (filling up w solution) no matter how many times I pressed the clean button. I cleaned the cleaning station as well by running water to open the holes and even used toothpick to poke it open.

The cassette and solution is brand new, used it once or twice so there is some minimal hairs in the cassette but I always like to clean it every week. I also took apart the cassette and tapped it on surface to get rid of hairs as well.

Any idea what's wrong?

Thanks

my neck hair grows stupidly fast. two days after shaving, my shirt collars are already rubbing against fresh razor bumps and driving me nuts.

last night my gf zapped my red, inflamed neck with her device (one of those ulike models). honestly i barely felt anything, which kinda makes me skeptical.

for guys with coarse hair, do home ipl devices actually work long term? i don't need to be 100% hairless, i just want to stop getting razor burn and ruining my work shirts. am i wasting my time here?
