Hi all,

I recently took the plunge and shaved all of my hair off after fighting a losing battle with a tragic receding hairline. I love it. What I don't love so much is the shine that I get from the oil on my head. This is a fairly common issue for many guys with shaved heads and people recommend cleansing and moisturising properly as well as some other suggestions, like using milk of magnesia as a kind of primer or using talc (or non-talc containing powders) to control it. I've tried MoM and talc, but both end up leaving me looking pretty white and ghostly...

Some guys have suggested using some sort of translucent powder but I've seen very little by way of helpful guidance on the men's forums about this and, not being an habitual makeup wearer, I'm not sure if this would be the right thing. Could I trespass upon your expertise and ask for product suggestions that might help? Is setting powder the right product? Could I apply it directly to my scalp or should I do it while my scalp is still tacky from being moisturised. Should I go for one with a colour (I am fairly pale, just not Casper-pale as the talc is leaving me...)

Am also considering going into my local Mac and asking there...

Thanks very much!
