Buzzed and Bold: Tommy Gun's Guide to Rocking Your Buzz Cut!

At Tommy Gun's Original Barbershop, we believe a buzz cut is more than just a hairstyle—it's a bold statement of confidence and style. A buzz cut is low-maintenance, effortlessly cool, and perfect for any season. But even this minimalist look requires some care to keep it looking sharp and your scalp feeling healthy. Here's our ultimate guide on maintaining your buzz cut, featuring top-tier products from Reuzel, Paul Mitchell, and other leading brands.

1. Combat Dry or Flaky Scalp

One of the common challenges with a buzz cut is dealing with a dry or flaky scalp. Without the natural cover of longer hair, your scalp is more exposed to the elements, making it prone to dryness. Enter Reuzel Scrub Shampoo. This powerful formula exfoliates your scalp, removing dead skin cells and buildup that can lead to flakiness. Infused with invigorating ingredients, it cleanses thoroughly while leaving your scalp feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. For best results, use it 2-3 times a week.

2. Keep Your Hair and Scalp Moisturized

  • Reuzel Hair Tonic: Lightweight and refreshing, this tonic can be applied daily to hydrate your scalp and keep your hair looking healthy. It’s non-greasy and helps maintain the natural oils of your scalp.
  • Reuzel Grooming Tonic: For those who like a bit of hold and shine, the Grooming Tonic is a top pick. It provides a light hold, adds a touch of style to your buzz cut, and nourishes your scalp.

3. Protect Your Scalp with SPF

With a buzz cut, your scalp is more exposed to the sun, making it vulnerable to sunburn. Using an SPF specifically designed for your scalp is crucial. Choose a lightweight, non-greasy formula that won’t weigh your hair down or make it look oily. Apply it daily, especially if you spend a lot of time outdoors.

4. Opt for a 3-in-1 Shampoo

Keep your buzz cut clean and healthy with a 3-in-1 shampoo. These multi-purpose products combine shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in one, simplifying your grooming routine without compromising on cleanliness and care. They're perfect for men who appreciate low-maintenance solutions.

5. Soothe Your Scalp

  • Tea Tree Special Shampoo: This shampoo cleanses deeply while providing a refreshing tingling sensation. It’s perfect for keeping your scalp clean and free from impurities.
  • Tea Tree Hair and Scalp Treatment: Use this treatment weekly to nourish and invigorate your scalp. It helps prevent dryness and keeps your scalp feeling healthy.

Final Tips for Maintaining Your Buzz Cut

  • Regular Trims: Keep your buzz cut looking razor-sharp with regular trims. Depending on how fast your hair grows, you might need to visit Tommy Gun's every 2-3 weeks.
  • Avoid Over-Washing: Washing your hair every day can strip your scalp of natural oils. Aim to wash your hair 2-3 times a week, or as needed based on your lifestyle.
