Things You'll Need

Instructions

1

Take a warm shower or place a damp, warm towel on your head for one minute. If showering, wash your scalp with an oil-control shampoo. Squirt the product in your hand, then apply it to your wet head.
2

Apply a dry shave gel to the area you wish to shave. Dry formulas are less messy than wet foams and gels.
3

Shave the hair in the direction of your hair growth using a shaver designed for head maintenance. These shavers will have ergonomic handles that are easier to use than typical razors.
4

Rinse away the shaving gel. Pat your scalp dry with a soft towel.
5

Squirt a small amount of oil-free, shine-reducing moisturizer to the palm of your hand. Pat the product into the scalp area. This will hydrate your freshly shaved skin without making it oily.
