Man Up – Just Shave It and Get the T-Shirt!

Are you tired of grabbing your baseball cap to hide the slowly growing bald spot on the back of your head? Do you do the careful comb-over to make it look like you’ve got more hair than you really do? Or are you just tired of having to tie up an hour every few weeks to get your buzz cut refreshed? Whether you’re dealing with hair loss or tired of the grooming shtick, there’s a solution. Bald Boy, makers of Mean & Clean Shave It Cream, invites all of you wannabe bald boys to man up – just shave it and join the Bald Boy Nation. Heck, you can even get a Bald Boy Nation T-shirt to advertise your new allegiance to the Brotherhood of the Shiny Shaved Head.

Why Not Man Up & Just Shave It?

Okay. We hear you. Committing to a chrome dome is a scary proposition. You’re making a commitment that will last at least a couple of months. And yes, chances are good that shaving your head bald will drastically change your appearance. But you know… when part of that appearance is a receding hairline and thinning hair, is changing your appearance really such a bad thing?

An awful lot of people would tell you that shaving your head can only do good things for your image – unless, of course, you’re making your living as a shampoo model. Bald boys have that tough-guy look going for them, which can be a good thing. Even better, ever since Vin Diesel paired up with a gaggle of cute kids in The Pacifier, everyone knows that underneath that smooth, tough-guy bald boy exterior lies a brain that can figure out a tricky puzzle and a heart that melts when a little kid babbles at him. Tough enough to knock out the bad guys, warm enough to win the kids over and smart enough to save the country – seriously, who could complain about hooking up with that image. Come on. Man up & just shave it and you too can be a lovable tough teddy bear that no one messes with but your woman.

But What About Maintenance?

What about it? How much time do you spend arranging your crowning glory every day? How many hours have you wasted sitting in a barber’s chair? If you decide you like your shaved head, you know what it takes to keep it clean and gleaming? A handful of shaving cream, a decent razor and a few minutes in the shower a couple of mornings a week.

And if it turns out that you don’t like the look, just stop shaving. Within a couple of weeks, folks will just figure you’ve got a nice brush cut, and in a couple of months, your flirtation with bald boy nation will be a funny story someone tells once in a while. So go on. Join the Bald Boy Nation. Man up & just shave it. We dare you.

Man Up – Just Shave It for Spring

Okay. We know that hair keeps your head warm. It’s one of the best excuses to hang onto your hair during the cold winter months. But now that the spring is here and the days are getting warmer and warmer, you don’t have that excuse any longer. If you’ve been thinking that shaving your head is a good way to stop worrying about graying hair and hair loss, warm weather gives you a great excuse to man up & just shave it!

Seriously. Maybe you’ve been hesitating because you just know someone would figure the only reason you decide to join Bald Boy Nation was to make your hair loss less obvious. Mind you, that’s a perfectly good reason for going bald on purpose, but it’s not one that everyone wants to admit. Fact is, more guys man up & just shave it all off in the spring than at any other time of year. The warm weather gives you a built-in reason – a shaved head is cooler than one covered with fur, right?

How to Join Bald Boy Nation without Raising Suspicion

So you think you’re ready to man up & just shave your hair off, but you don’t want to give the folks a heart attack. No sweat. Just follow these steps to prepare your loved ones for the new look.

Step One:

Casually mention that it’s getting warm and you’ve been thinking of cutting your hair shorter for the summer. This stage should last a few days at least. Don’t harp on the subject – just mention it once or twice to a few friends and gauge their reaction.

Step Two:

Notice one or two celebs with shaved heads and comment how much easier it must be to maintain than some carefully coifed cut. For bonus effect, mention it around your girlfriend to see how she reacts. You just might find out that she’s got a secret thing for smooth-headed guys. Score!

Step Three:

Take it down to a fade, a flat-top or a buzz cut. This is an important step – it’s a lot less shocking to go bald from a near-baldy cut than it is to lop off shoulder-brushing locks and shave your head smooth.

Step Four:

Get some shaving cream and a decent razor and go to town. Bald Boy Mean & Clean Shave It Cream is specially formulated for shaving your head. Unlike foams and gels, it stays put on your head and doesn’t slide down into your eyes while you’re trying to get a nice clean line. It’s designed to clean up nice and tidy and leave you with a clean and mean smooth shave that needs almost no cleanup.

That’s all there is to it. Don’t spend another summer dealing with sweaty, sticky hair that clings to your scalp in strings. Man up & just shave it off this spring and feel the liberation!

Why Don’t You Man Up.. Just Shave It?

Is hair loss a problem? Are you tired of bad hair days? Do you wish you didn’t have to lay out that $20 every few weeks for a trim or risk looking like a scruffy, overgrown refugee from the 70s? There’s a solution to all of those scruffy hair problems. Man up… just shave it off!

That’s right. Shaving your head frees you from the tyranny of the bi-monthly barbershop trip. Guys with shaved heads don’t need to lay out the cash for conditioner and hair gel – oh, hush, you know you buy it! When you finally man up & just shave it, your only maintenance is running a blade over your smooth pate every couple of days, and that leaves you free to concentrate on other things.

The fact is that there are a lot of very good reasons for shaving your head. It saves you money, saves you time and looks a whole lot better than a receding hairline or bald spot. The guys that join the Baldboy Nation rock the hot, bad boy look that many women find irresistible. And you get to join the ranks of notables like The Rock, Vin Diesel and Stone Cold Steve Austin. But a lot of guys are hesitant to shave off their locks. To top off the list of plusses, it’s not permanent. If you don’t like it, you can just let it grow back.

So why are so many men afraid to man up & just shave it all off?

They’re Afraid They Won’t Look Good

Yeah, that really is the biggest reason that guys hesitate to pick up the razor and shaving cream. Truth is, most guys look just as good without hair as they do with hair. You don’t need a gorgeous skull to rock a bald boy look. You just have to have the confidence to pull it off.

In fact, most guys – especially those who are already dealing with hair loss issues or who are going gray – look better when they man up & just shave it off. Shaving your hair gets rid of the evidence of aging – gone is the gray hair that makes you look older and the bald spot that you have to hide with a hat or a bad comb-over. Instead, you have a proud, bald head to show off.

So go for it. Grab a tube of Bald Boy Mean & Clean Shaving Cream and man up. Just shave it off and watch the world sit up and take notice.

The Shaving Gear You Need to Man Up…Just Shave It!

Shaving your head bald isn’t giving in to Mother Nature – it’s one-upping her. When you man up & just shave it, you’re taking control of your headspace and refusing to let thinning hair and bald spots define you. One of the many cool things about going bald is that you need a whole lot less care gear to take care of your dome than you do to keep your hair looking good. That said, the best head shaving gear can make the simple task of keeping your bald head looking bad even simpler. The right razor, shaving cream and other accessories can make grooming even more of a breeze than a bald head already is.

Razor

Obviously, the most important piece of gear for the guy who decides to man up…just shave it is the actual shaving implement. Most guys are fanatical about the razor they choose for their shaved heads and they’re not shy about telling you why they choose thing one they do. Skip the cheap, plastic disposable blades and the electric shavers – neither one will give you a good shave. Some bald boys swear by an old-fashioned double-edged shaver, but note that it takes longer to shave with one. Some guys love the shave they get with a triple-edge or quad blade. The very best of the lot, according to many members of Bald Boy Nation, is the HeadBlade, a razor designed especially for shaving your head. The special handle makes it easier to get a good, close shave without tugging and nicking your sensitive scalp.

Shave Cream

Shaving gels and shaving foams are for wusses and pusses, but shave cream is an absolute necessity for shaving your head. A thick, rich shaving cream softens your hair, moistens your scalp and makes the razor glide over your dome without pulling and bumping over the contours. Foam and gels don’t do the job, and have a nasty habit of sliding down your forehead into your eyes. A thick shave cream like Bald boy Mean & Clean Shave it Cream stays put until you shave it away and shaves away clean. You’ll get the right shave the first time when you use Bald boy Shave it cream.

Mirror

The best place to shave your head is in the shower, but that can make it a little tough to see what you’re doing. You can try to shave your scalp by feel, but it’s a whole lot easier if you invest in a decent fog-proof mirror to mount in your shower. You can spend up to $700 on one of these, but one of the best on the market is the Shave Well Fog Free mirror that costs about $10. It hangs on a hook in your shower, can be moved around to any angle you want and is small enough to hold in your hand if you need to get a closer view.

That’s all you really need, though most of the Bald Boy Nation guys opt for a sun-blocking moisturizer to keep your smooth pate from burning. Shaving your head is easy and stays easy, so don’t hold back. Man up…just shave it!

Eight Great Reasons to Man Up & Just Shave It

So you’ve been thinking about shaving your head but you’re just not sure you’re ready to do it. Maybe you think you won’t look good, or your friends and co-workers will make fun of you. Maybe you’ve been playing with the idea of going naked on top, but you just haven’t found a reason that’s good enough to convince you to man up & just shave it. Maybe you just need one more good reason to pull out the old razor and shave cream and join the Bald Boy Nation. Maybe, just maybe one of these reasons will be the one you’ve been waiting to hear.

You’ll Shave Ten Years Off Your Appearance

The color, presence and thickness of hair on a man is one of the major contextual cues people rely on when estimating your age. Thinning hair, gray hair, bald spots and receding hairlines all add years to your appearance. When you man up & just shave it off, you get rid of the tell-tale clues to your age and look up to ten years younger than you do with hair.

Bald Boys Look Tougher

To put it bluntly, Bald Boys are badass. Don’t take my word for it. Look at celebrities with shaved heads and the roles they play. Do you want to tell Vin Diesel, Bruce Willis and Sean Connery that they don’t look tough enough?

Throw Your Comb Away

Shaving your head frees you from the tyranny of bad hair days. You don’t ever have to comb your hair again. You can wear a motorcycle helmet or pull off a sweater without having to fix your hair.

Pocket the Money You Used to Hand the Barber

Shaving your head is a DIY look that’s hard to mess up. You can do your own touch-ups in the shower and pocket a few hundred bucks a year.

Play with Really Cool Manly Grooming Stuff

How about a razor on wheels that looks like a little race car? It’s one of the coolest pieces of men’s head-shaving gear to come along in years. You also get to use great head-grooming stuff like Bald Boy Mean & Clean Shave it Cream, the shaving cream created specifically for shaving your dome.

Save Time in the Shower

Add up all the time you spend taking care of your hair in the shower – shampooing, conditioning, rinsing – then drying and combing when you get out of the shower. When you’re bald, you just soap up and rinse off. You can be in and out of the shower in about five minutes and invest your time in an extra cup of coffee.

Stop Worrying About Hair Loss

When you’re bald by choice, who cares about hair loss? If anything, losing more hair means less head to shave.

You Get to Wear a Cool T-Shirt

Bald Boy, makers of Bald Boy Mean & Clean Shave it Cream also have a whole line of totally bad Bald Boy Nation T-shirts in black and red and skull and flames. It doesn’t get better than that.

There you go. Why are you still sitting here? Man up…just shave it and reap the benefits!

Bald Is Beautiful – Man Up… Just Shave It

If you’re fighting a losing battle against hair loss, you’re not alone. According to the latest statistics from the American Academy of Dermatology, somewhere in the neighborhood of 80 million men and women “suffer” from balding and thinning hair. Everywhere you turn, there are television ads for Rogaine and Minoxidil, hair plugs and hair transplants and other treatments designed to preserve a full head of hair. Men spend billions of dollars a year to save a few strands of hair and regularly make themselves look ridiculous with wigs, toupees and really, really bad comb-overs. We’ve got one message for all of these hair-obsessed guys: bald is beautiful, brother! Man up… just shave it!



There’s a lot to be said for taking the definitive step of shaving your head bald. Let’s start with one simple comparison. Who is more manly – George Costanza or Vin Diesel?



Get the picture? The simple fact is that those strands of thinning hair are, bluntly, unattractive. They make you look old and wimpy. When you man up & just shave it, you become the master of your destiny, no longer a slave to those thinning wisps of hair that mark a loser. In fact, bald heads are so sexy that you’ll find lots of men who could grow a full, bushy head of hair who decide to shear their locks and shave their heads, displaying that glorious skull that stops people in their tracks in awe.



There are other benefits to shaving your head, too. Shaving cream and a razor, for example, are a lot cheaper than Rogaine and hair plugs. You get to look sexier and save money at the same time. How can you argue with that?



You don’t have to worry about bed head, hat head or bad hair days. And while you may have to spend 15 minutes or so a couple of times a week keeping your pate smooth, you get to trade that off with the amount of time you spend grooming, combing, gelling, drying and washing your hair – not to mention the expense of hair styling. You never have to wonder how much you should tip the hair stylist, or whether someone is admiring your hair or wondering if it’s a bad weave.



In fact, your biggest expense when you man up & just shave it is shaving cream. The right shaving cream is important, though. Shaving foams and gels won’t cut it – they slide off your scalp and provide no protection at all. A shaving cream like Baldboy Mean & Clean Shave it Cream is thick, smooth and specially designed for shaving your head. When you decide to man up… just shave it, you can even declare your allegiance to the Baldboy Nation  with a rockin’ T-shirt emblazoned with the Bald to the Bone slogan and a fiery, totally bald, skull.



So show off that gorgeous head structure. Man up…just shave it and join the Baldboy Nation . Freedom from the tyranny of thinning hair can be yours for the cost of a tube of shaving cream.

Don’t Mess with Weaves and Wigs – Man Up…Just Shave It!

Louis XIV wore a 20-pound wig to hide his bald spot. Julius Caesar wrapped a wreath around his head to cover up thinning hair. Throughout history, nations have been led by men who apparently had no one in their lives to tell them to man up… just shave it! The common man apparently takes his cue from those wimps in wigs. Every year, millions of men buy rugs, get plugs and spend hours in front of the mirror trying to arrange their wisps of hair to cover up naked skin. The makers of BaldBoy shave cream have a message for them all. Bald is manly, dude! Man up…just shave it!

No one is quite sure who created the fiction that a manly man sports a full head of hair. I mean, think about this. Who’s more manly – Fabio or Vin Diesel? Gene Simmons or Kareem Abdul-Jabbar? Kenny G or Bruce Willis? There are more, but you get the point, right? Bald isn’t just sexy – it’s tough, it’s strong and it’s manly. And, as Willis learned when he stopped trying to hide his pate with do rags and baseball caps, when you man up & just shave it, you can go from aw shucks to hot stuff practically overnight.

Look, fighting hair loss is a huge industry these days. Somehow, the hair loss remedy industry has managed to sell real men a bill of goods that fake hair makes you sexy, manly and attractive to women. They’ve convinced guys to sit there and let someone punch holes in their head with a hole punch and stick little plugs of hair into the holes – all in the name of getting a few extra precious inches of hair covering. Seriously, guys… why would you do that when taking a razor to your scalp is so much easier – and manlier to boot?

Ask any lady you know and she’ll tell you – BaldBoys are Bad Boys. Women know the score. Hot women love to run their hands over a bare, smooth, sexy scalp because they get it. A beautiful, bald head is the ultimate in-your-face symbol. It says “the advertisers don’t control me”. It says strong, confident and independent in a way that long, flowing locks or a helmet head of plastic hair never could. So yeah, guys, join the Bald Boy Nation! Man up… just shave it!

Manning up doesn’t have to mean putting up with shaving rash and skin irritation, though. BaldBoy shave cream was created specifically for men who decide to man up and shave their heads. It’s slicker and smoother so your razor glides without pulling and scraping, making it easier than ever to man up and shave your head. You can even declare your allegiance to BaldBoy Nation with a Bald Boy T-shirt that lets the whole world know that you’ve declared your independence from the rug, the plug and the comb-over. Just do it. Man up… just shave it and watch the reaction you get.
