I'm bald. Yesterday I was at the store buying soap and started looking for shampoo for bald people. Couldn't find anything so figured I'd Google it (I didn't).
I don't know, I still use normal shampoo to wash my head. I have dry skin and figured using normal soap on my scalp would make it worse. All this to say I'm not saving any money.
I've been shaving my head for fundraising events as well as my own health-related reasons off and on for ~20 years. My dermatologist suggested a specific face wash and moisturizer/sunscreen for me due to rosacea/eczema/skin allergies, so I've been using the same on my scalp whenever I shave it. The brand she recommended to me for both is CeraVe, so that's what I've been using for several years now.
Old Spice makes a bald care wash. I really enjoy it. Exfoliates nicely, smells really good, and moisturizes.
