Bald Links
Links for the Hairless
These links are all about head-shaving or have something to do with being bald-by-choice. Product sites are listed at the bottom of the page. If you are looking for women specific links, we have links for bald women. If you want even more links, check out the ShaverLog, as I sometimes link to pages that I haven’t gotten around to adding here.
Inspiring posts about the bald and bald-by-choice, from the blog Hair Loss Geeks.
A bald community site. From their home page: “This is the place where bald guys rule! Whether you are bald by choice or Mother Nature influenced the decision, you are in the right place. This site was created to provide a community for any and all bald guys.”
A site discussing the causes and the ultimate solution to balding. They even offer a virtual hair loss treatment – send them a photo, and they’ll ‘balderize’ it for you.
A new online message board for sharing information and asking questions about headshaving and headshaving-related products. Check it out.
A proud bald man with a cool website. Visit, look around, ponder, enjoy.
The website for those who believe that God made a few perfect heads, and on the rest he put hair. They reject the idea that hair equals happiness, with which I agree fully and completely. Be proud!
This site describes itself as a commercial-free source of information about hair removal methods. A major part of its focus seems to be exposing false claims made by companies and people who sell hair removal products. Definitely worth checking out if you’re looking at alternatives to shaving.
The author notes that he doesn’t claim that his is the definitive Shave-Your-Head FAQ, but it is his Shave-Your-Head FAQ. It’s a good one, though, with plenty of insight. Definitely worth a look.
A large site detailing many methods of removing hair from the body. They have a brief section on head-shaving as well.
A Yahoo! Club intended for the intentionally bald gentleman, with a message board, chat room, and links. A wonderful site, especially if you’re looking for encouragement or advice on shaving your own head. Definitely worth a look!
Another Yahoo! Club, but this one is for men who are bald (either naturally or by choice) and, well, proud of it.

Somerset’s produces a fine shaving oil, which I was fortunate enough to find in a local store recently. I’ve posted a review of Somerset’s.
This company cryogenically tempers razor blades. They claim that the blades last 3 times as long as regular (non-cryo’d) blades. I shaved with one for around 2 months before switching it out (it wasn’t too dull to use, but I wanted to test a different blade and didn’t want to wait). The guy in charge also sells them on Ebay, and has had excellent feedback from buyers. They definitely seem worthwhile.
A company in California designed a razor specifically for us head-shavers. My review is here.
