Oil or Butter for Bald Heads? Here's What Your Skin's Been Waiting For

Bald is bold - but smooth is supreme.

Whether you're rocking a clean-shaven dome by choice or chance, there’s one thing every bald head needs: proper care. But when it comes to daily maintenance, many ask should I use an oil or a butter?

Let’s break it down in a way that respects your skin, keeps your scalp nourished, and helps you own your presence confidently.

Why Bald Heads Need Dedicated Skincare

Bald heads are exposed. Sun. Wind. Cold. Pollution. Shaving. That’s a lot for your skin to deal with. Without hair acting as a barrier, your scalp needs more moisture and protection to stay healthy, flake free and looking good.

But here's the kicker: you can’t just use anything. Many mainstream products clog pores, leave a greasy shine or just sit on the surface doing nothing.

That’s where Bros in Beards steps in.

Don’t Skip the Cleanse: Cleaning & Exfoliating Your Bald Head

Caring for a bald head isn’t just about moisturising — it starts with a clean, balanced base.

Gentle Cleaning

Your scalp collects oil, sweat, pollution, and product build-up daily. Use a balancing face cleanser that won’t strip natural oils but will remove dirt and grime. A clean scalp absorbs oils and butters better, making your routine more effective.

Post-Shave Care Benefits

Shaving your head can leave the skin vulnerable - especially to dryness, razor bumps, or irritation. Using a non-comedogenic oil right after shaving can soothe and calm the skin, while a butter applied later helps restore moisture and protect against flaking or tightness.

Oil or Butter: What’s the Difference?

Our Premium Oils

Lightweight, non-comedogenic (that means they won’t block your pores), and fast absorbing, our signature oil blend is a powerhouse for hydration without the heaviness. Perfect for morning routines or when you want that healthy hydration without the heaviness and natural finish.

Ideal for:

  • Daily use

  • Non-comedogenic care for sensitive and blemish-prone skin

  • Smooth, fast-absorbing feel that lets your skin breathe

Our Butters

Rich, smooth, and deeply moisturising—our butters are crafted to lock in hydration while protecting your skin barrier. They’re also formulated with non-comedogenic ingredients, so they nourish without clogging. Think of it as a skin loving treatment that melts in beautifully.

Ideal for:

  • Daily hydration and overnight skin recovery

  • Protection against wind, cold, and dry climates

  • Soothing and replenishing dry, flaky, or irritated skin

What Sets Our Formulas Apart?

So Which One Should You Use?

Honestly? Both are great.
