Every day solutions

Always comb hair gently and use a mild shampoo (but not a baby shampoo).

As hair starts to thin, consider cutting it short or even having it neatly trimmed by a professional stylist. This can help if your hair becomes thin or patchy.

Don’t shave your head to the scalp. This can cause irritation and potentially cuts or nicks that could lead to infection.

When you’ve lost your hair, your scalp may become drier. Gently massage your scalp with your facial moisturizer to make it feel more comfortable and increase circulation to your stressed hair follicles. Caring for your scalp will greatly reduce sensitivity and itchiness.

There are many hat and cap styles today for sports, sun, cold, rain, wind, etc., to help you find something to cover and protect your head.

Look for products that say GENTLE, for SENSITIVE SKIN or for ECEZMA

Ideally, use a facial cleanser twice a day – morning and night

You can use a gentle body wash for the rest of your body

While most men generally have oilier skin than women, treatment can have an drying effect your skin, so staying hydrated (both inside and out!) is fundamental.

Don’t forget LIP BALM – your lips may be extra dry or chapped during treatment. Keep things simple with a hypoallergenic lip balm with an SPF to keep you moisturized and prevent burning during the day.

One of the most prevalent side-effects of treatment is sun sensitivity

It is essential to wear daily sunscreen protection with a minimum of SPF30

Shower before shaving or apply a warm towel/face cloth. This warms the skin, opening the pores and softening the hair cuticles.

Apply your chosen sensitive skin shaving gel or foam, ideally using a shaving brush, and make sure you generate a warm, rich protective lather. (Using a shaving bush softens and lifts the facial hair off the face helping to maintain good levels of hydration and lubrication).

Use light, gentle strokes, letting your razor do the work.

Facial hair grows in many directions so you’ll shave both with and against the grain. Shave in the direction that feels most comfortable.

Rinse your blades often.

Rinse with cold water. This will remove shaving cream residue, tighten pores and cool the skin.

Moisturize the whole face and neck area with a mild moisturizer.

Apply sun protection daily and liberally – a dollop about the size of a golf ball – to all exposed skin, such as the lips, ears, scalp, sides, and back of neck

Get in the habit of applying sun protection every morning, about 20 to 30 minutes before going outside, and reapply often – about every two hours

Remember that you’re still exposed to UVA/UVB rays even in shady areas. If you’re indoors, windows do not protect against UVA rays

Stay inside during the intense-sun hours of 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Wear clothing especially formulated with SPF when you have to go out into strong sun.

Hold a brow pencil straight up against your nose, parallel to the inside corner of your eye. Draw a dot on the brow bone at this point. This is where your eyebrow should begin.

Looking straight ahead, place the pencil parallel to the outside edge of the coloured part (the iris) of your eye. Place a dot where the highest point of the brow line should be. This is the arch of the brow. Use the orbital bone as guide to finding the highest point.

Place the pencil diagonally from the bottom corner of your nose past the outside corner of your eye and draw a dot. This is the end of your brow. Be sure it’s not lower than the beginning of your brow, as this will create a down-turned expression.

Connect the dots into a brow line with light, feather-like strokes of colour, making the brow fuller on the inside corner and thinner as it moves out.

Choose a neutral matte eyeshadow palette

Sweep a light shade over the entire lid and up to the brow

Apply a darker shade in a sideways v on the outer corner of the lid starting from the lash line and extending into the crease

Apply a highlight shade under your brow if desired

Blend well to soften the effect

Using an eyeliner pencil, draw small dots close to the root of the lashes on the eyelid.

Holding the eyeliner on a slant, starting from the inner corner of the eye, connect the dots at the very base of the lash line.

Using a cotton swab, gently blend. Use a little of the darker eyeshadow over the eyeliner to soften the look and help it last longer.

Make sure to avoid applying liner to your waterline

Apply first to the top side of the lashes and then to the underside

Brush the mascara wand lightly across the lower lashes

Avoid waterproof mascara
