was gonna get a microneedling pen and some minoxidil but I think it’s time to say so long goodbye. I’m dark skin so this final form was always destined to happen. My only problem is idk how to properly shave low without getting bumps. Anytime I’ve used a razor on my body I got bumps, switched to electric and I’m good. Don’t think regular clippers can get that low though.

It's unfortunately a two-step process. Electric first (I use an edge-trimmer to get it as low as possible, which is pretty low) then use a razor. You'll probably get bumps near the nape of your neck. For that, you want to apply Tend Skin after you shave and the next day. I've not had a single bump since I started using it. shyt is absolutely fire.

Finasteride or just shave that shyt...

Edit: Misread what you wrote. Well my advice is still appropriate for someone deciding if they're willing to fight baldness or accept it.

Clippers breh, just shave it off. Dont entertain denial and false remedies. Get some clippers, and shave it off, all of it. Admittedly I miss the barber shop experience, but I save money not paying for a cut and tipping the barber.

Mach 3 on the dome, cheeks, and jaw (haven't been rocking a beard for the last 6 months.)

Straight razor on my neck.

My shyt clean...and I used to bump up bad...i still have discoloration from it...but i don't bump up anymore. Technique, Technique, Technique...

Witch hazel or peroxide immediately after...and any generic aftershave afterwards. You'll figure out what you like.
