Nope, no skin irritation/inflammation/infection or allergies or owt at all.
I meant it more in a second world war tic kind of way, which may have caused it.

Nope, nowt like that, it just appeared (the missus noticed it a couple of months ago, then i spotted it the next thyme I shaved my heid).
Re: Last one to post wins the internets
Do you shave it altogether, or do you use clippers at the lowest setting or something?
I tried shaving it all off last summer, but couldn't get beyond a bit of stubble. First I tried clippers, then I went at it with an electric shaver.
Even tried one of them disposable razor-thingies, but my hair just messed it up. It basically did nothing.
Re: Last one to post wins the internets
I mostly use clippers with no guard but if i'm feeling fancy, i'll use a razor and get it right down to smooth skin (takes a bit of time to get it all smooth, like). My hair grows quick tho', if I use a razor it's back to the length it'd be if i'd used clippers with no guard within a couple of days.
Re: Last one to post wins the internets
Don't use a disposable razor, they're shite. I use the same gillette razor I use on my face for it (use a new head though) and that works best. Shaving it as short as possible with clippers first makes it a whole load easier too.
Re: Last one to post wins the internets
Last time I did mine, about a month ago, I had the guard on, at the lowest setting. Actually, first I tried like 4 cm, but didn't have a comb, so it didn't work too well, so I went to 3 cm, which also was crap, then I tried 2.5 and it sort of worked, but I messed up at the back of my head. So I just went with the lowest, which is 3mm.
Then I took the guard off to trim a bit, and got burnt. I'd been running it for so long, it had gotten hot.
Next day at work I had a red streak on the back of my neck. True story.

You've either got some weird northern euro hair type which refuses to be cut by normal methods or your clippers are a bit shit.
